25 Nov
Summary
- Joe Pesci bit Macaulay Culkin during Home Alone rehearsal.
- Culkin still has a scar on his finger from the incident.
- Culkin humorously suggested involving HR over the bite.
Macaulay Culkin recently shared a surprising anecdote from the set of Home Alone, detailing an incident where co-star Joe Pesci bit his finger during a rehearsal. Culkin, who was nine years old at the time, explained that the bite occurred unexpectedly when Pesci, portraying the burglar Harry, was acting out a scene threatening to bite Kevin's fingers.
Pesci reportedly bit Culkin's finger during the rehearsal, a moment that clearly startled both actors. Culkin recounted Pesci's quick apology, acknowledging the bite on a child co-star. This unexpected encounter left a lasting physical mark on Culkin, who stated that he still bears a visible 'divot' on his finger 35 years later, jokingly calling it a souvenir.
The actor also touched upon his children's interest in the movie's prank-filled premise, noting they have started setting traps. He humorously mused about potential revenge on Pesci, even considering having his own children set traps for the actor.
