And while Home Alone and its various sequels and spin-offs are must-watches for many households at this time alone, Kieran has revealed his isn’t one of them.

Speaking to E! News, the Emmy winner claimed that parts of the film are actually too “scary” for his children, who are aged five and three.

“For the three-year-old, there’s the tarantula [and] there’s the guy at the end who said, ‘I’m gonna bite off all your fingers.’ That’s scary for a three-year-old,” he insisted.

However, if he doesn’t introduce Home Alone to the younger members of his family this year, Kieran said “next year” would be the one.

Meanwhile, he’s not the only star of a festive favourite who is yet to introduce his children to their Christmas film.

And if you’re hoping to watch Home Alone yourself in the coming weeks, you’ll be pleased to hear it’s available to stream on Disney+.
