Macaulay Culkin has come far from the star of a child in his own home film almost 30 years ago. His life had a lot of ups and downs and in the process, he managed to get serious money.
Macaulay Carson Culkin was born in 1980, in New York City. His father, Christopher Cornelius “kit” Culkin, also an actor, famous for his Broadway show. His mother is Patricia Brentrup. Macaulay’s parents never officially married but had seven children together.
Macauley has four brothers and two sisters, Shane, Dakota, Kieran, Quinn, Christian, and Rory. Patricia worked as a telephone operator and Christopher as Sacristan at a local Catholic Church, so they were unable to buy a big house. The family lives in a small one bedroom apartment.
They raised their children as Roman Catholics and Macaulay attended Yesville St. School. Joseph, before enrolling in a professional children’s school.
Macaulay acted when he was only four years old. He appeared in the production of Bach York Philharmonic Babies. During the 1980s, he had several roles on stage and TV.
The role of his first film was at Rocket Gibraltar in 1988, starring in Lancaster’s Burt. Macaulay plays the role of Cy Blue Black. Next year he gets a role in meeting you in the morning, with Jeff Bridges, Alice Krige, Farrah Fawcett and Drew Barrymore. In the same year, he starred in Uncle Buck with John Candy.
In 1990, the home itself was released and pushed Macaulay to Stardom. This film is an instant success in the office box and takes it Academy Award and Young Artist Award, as well as nominees for the Golden Globe. The role continues to come.
He appeared in the video of Black and White Michael Jackson, hosted Saturday Night Live, starred in my girl, which he got a nomination for the best screen duo and won the best Kiss on the MTV Movie Awards.
In 1992, he filmed his own home 2: Lost in New York (with cameo by Donald Trump). 1994 was very productive for him when he made three films even with father, Pagemaster, and Richie Rich. After that, he announced that he had rested from acting, after making 15 films in just seven years.
Looking for normal life, he enrolled in a private high school in New York. The next role is the appearance in the Sonic Youth’s Sunday video in 1998 after he returned to secrecy.
Macaulay decided to start acting again in 2000. He played a role in Madame Melville, a game carried out at West End London. In 2003, he made guest appearances in willingness and mercy and in the same year having a role in the movie party monsters.
In 2004, he was arrested for having a drug and received a one-year prison sentence. He starred in sex and breakfast and saved.
Culkin married Rachel Miner in 1998. The couple did not have children and divorced in 2002. He then dated Mia Kunis for four years before they separated.
During his career, Culkin made some very controversial decisions. One of them is his involvement in the trial of Michael Jackson. Culkin and Jacksons are good friends since Macaulay appeared in black and white videos in 1992. He was even a father of Baptist against Jackson’s children, Paris Prince, and Michael Jr.
Macaulay Culkin is a star when he is only ten. At the age of 12, he became a millionaire. Even though the home film alone first took it only $ 100,000, it opened all the Hollywood doors for him.
The cost increases exponentially and for his own home he gets a check of $ 4,500,000. The film exceeded $ 285 million and to this day, Culkin remains the best paid child actor in history.
Macaulay Culkin’s clean wealth is estimated at $ 18 million, including the luxury condo it has at Le Poisson Rouge. Most of his wealth comes from films and TV performances, but he also gets a handsome cost for the book published.
In 2018, he filmed a commercial for Google assistant, where he reprised his role in Home Alone as a parody. Although his life is a perfect example that money can’t buy happiness, hopefully, he can ditch his addiction and return to acting.
