Christmas is almost here, which means that we’re all getting ready to watch the classic film starring Macaulay Culkin.

If you are obsessed with this movie as we are, you will probably be very happy to hear that the reboot, at work on Disney+ streaming service, has cast its leads.

Jojo Rabbit‘s Archie Yates, will be portraying the main role in this project. It’s unclear if he’ll play Kevin Mcallister or an entirely new character. The cast will also include Ellie Kemper (Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) and comedian Rob Delaney, star of critically acclaimed sitcom Catastrophe.

When Disney CEO Bob Iger first announced their idea to give Home Alone a reboot treatment, he described it as reimagining for “a new generation”. They’re also considering doing the same with some of the other family-friendly franchises from the Fox library, including Night at the Museum and Cheaper by the Dozen.
