Kieran Kyle Culkin (born September 30, 1982) is an American actor. His accolades include a Primetime Emmy Award and a Golden Globe Award.

Culkin began his career as a child actor in Home Alone (1990), Father of the Bride (1991), Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), The Mighty (1998), and The Cider House Rules (1999). He achieved a career breakthrough by starring as a sardonic teenager in the film Igby Goes Down (2002), for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor. He appeared in the films Margaret (2011), Wiener-Dog (2016), and No Sudden Move (2021), and played Wallace Wells in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010) and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (2023).

Culkin garnered mainstream recognition with his portrayal of Roman Roy in the HBO television series Succession (2018–2023), which won him the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. He has since starred in Jesse Eisenberg's comedy-drama A Real Pain (2024), which earned him a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor.

On stage, he made his Broadway debut in the 24 Hour Plays in 2006, and returned to Broadway in the 2014 revival of Kenneth Lonergan's play This Is Our Youth.

Early life

Kieran Kyle Culkin was born on September 30, 1982, in New York City to Christopher Cornelius "Kit" Culkin, a former Broadway stage actor, and Patricia Brentrup, a native of North Dakota who met Kit in 1974 while working as a road traffic controller in Sundance, Wyoming.[1][2] The couple relocated to Kit's native New York City, and had seven children: Shane (b. 1976), Dakota (1978–2008),[3] Macaulay (b. 1980), Kieran (b. 1982), Quinn (b. 1984), Christian (b. 1987), and Rory (b. 1989).[1] He also had a paternal half-sister, Jennifer (1970–2000).[4] Culkin's paternal aunt is actress Bonnie Bedelia.[5]

Kieran Culkin spent his youth in the Yorkville neighborhood of Manhattan, where he lived with his parents and siblings.[1] During his early childhood, the family struggled financially; his mother worked as a telephone operator, while his father served as a sacristan at a local Catholic church.[1] In September 1995, Culkin's parents separated, and he has been estranged from his father since.[6]

Career

1988–1996: Early beginnings

Culkin's first professional acting gig was through a television commercial based on learning disabilities.[7] He was six years old at the time, and was repeatedly berated by the unnamed director in a failed attempt to make him method act.[8] At age seven, Culkin made his feature film debut as Fuller McCallister in the comedy Home Alone (1990), directed by Chris Columbus.[9] He had "no idea" what the film was about when he attended its premiere,[10] nor did he know that his brother Macaulay starred as his older cousin, Kevin.[11]

Culkin worked with Columbus again on the romantic comedy-drama Only the Lonely and starred as Matthew "Matty" Banks" in Father of the Bride (both 1991).[12][13] For his performance in the latter film, he earned a Young Artist Award nomination for Best Young Actor Co-Starring in a Motion Picture at the 14th Youth in Film Awards.[14] Culkin reprised his role as McCallister in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992),[15] starred in the action film Nowhere to Run (1993),[16] appeared in the comedy My Summer Story (1994),[17] reprised his role as Banks in Father of the Bride Part II (1995),[18] and starred as a farm boy who overcomes his fear of animals in Amanda (1996).[19]

1997–2002: First breakthrough

As he entered adolescence, Culkin alternated between lead roles in independent films and small parts in mainstream films. He earned a nomination for the Young Artist Award for Best Leading Young Actor in a Feature Film for his performance in the coming-of-age drama The Mighty (1998).[20][21] The following year, Culkin appeared in Music of the Heart, a biographical film about violinist Roberta Guaspari,[22] the teen comedy She's All That, which grossed over $100 million worldwide against a production budget of $7–10 million,[23] and Lasse Hallström's The Cider House Rules, which grossed over $88 million worldwide.[24] He then made his off-Broadway debut with James Lapine's play The Moment When in 2000,[25] and starred in his first regular role in a television series with the short-lived NBC sitcom Go Fish (2001).[26]

Culkin achieved a career breakthrough for playing the rebellious and sardonic teenager Jason "Igby" Slocumb Jr. in the comedy-drama Igby Goes Down (2002).[27] Film critic Stephen Holden for The New York Times praised his performance, writing that the role was "even richer" than the Catholic schoolboy he portrayed earlier in the year in Peter Care's The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys.[27] For his work in the former, Culkin won the Critics' Choice Movie Award for Best Young Actor/Actress and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.[28][29]

2003–2017: Hiatus and theatre work

Culkin in 2010

Igby Goes Down was the first gig that profoundly impacted Culkin's personal life.[30] He realized in the midst of the film's success that acting had become his career, which was "terrifying" because he was never granted the decision to pursue it.[31] As he needed time to figure out whether he genuinely wanted to be an actor or not, he took a break from the film and television industries and only focused on the acting jobs that interested him the most.[31]

Culkin mostly gravitated towards theatre during his hiatus, starting with replacement work in Kenneth Lonergan's West End production of This Is Our Youth (2002–2003) at the Garrick Theatre.[32] The "dream play" was the second gig that deeply affected Culkin, as he spent eight years convincing Lonergan to let him play the co-lead role of Warren Straub.[30] He then starred as Justin Hammond in Gina Gionfriddo's After Ashley (2005) at the Vineyard Theatre,[33] which won him an Obie Award for Performance.[34] In 2006, Culkin starred in Eric Bogosian's off-Broadway revival of SubUrbia,[35] and made his on-Broadway debut by appearing in Julia Cho's one-act play First Tree in Antarctica.[36][37] He reunited with Lonergan for The Starry Messenger (2009) at the Acorn Theatre.[38] Culkin then headlined multiple revival runs of This Is Our Youth as Dennis Ziegler for the Sydney Opera House,[39] the Steppenwolf Theatre Company,[40] and the Cort Theatre.[41]

Among Culkin's sporadic film roles were Christopher in the comedy-drama Paper Man (2009),[42] Wallace Wells in the romantic action-comedy Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010),[43] and Paul Hirsch in the psychological drama Margaret (2011).[44] During production of the science fiction comedy Infinity Baby (2017), he recalled feeling comfortable with acting and began settling into his career within the medium.[45]

2018–present: Succession and second breakthrough

From 2018 to 2023, Culkin received renewed recognition from mainstream audiences for his lead role as Roman Roy, the immature and irresponsible media executive, in the HBO satirical black comedy-drama series Succession.[46] He credits the series for solidifying his desire to be an actor.[45] Culkin's performance, especially in the final season, earned critical acclaim and numerous accolades,[47] including the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series,[48] the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Television Series – Drama,[49] two Critics' Choice Television Awards,[50] and two Screen Actors Guild Awards.[51]

Set during the COVID-19 pandemic, Culkin reprised his role as Matty Banks for a second time in the screenlife short film Father of the Bride Part 3(ish) (2020).[52] He played a supporting role in Steven Soderbergh's crime thriller film No Sudden Move (2021),[53] and hosted the November 6, 2021 episode of the variety series Saturday Night Live; marking thirty years since his brother Macaulay anchored.[54] In 2022, Culkin narrated the documentary miniseries Gaming Wall Street and joined the adult animated sitcom Solar Opposites as a main character.[55][56] He returned to his role as Wallace Wells for the anime series Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (2023).[57]

The 2024 Sundance Film Festival marked the release of Culkin's first major project post-SuccessionJesse Eisenberg's buddy comedy-drama film A Real Pain.[58] He played Benji Kaplan, a free-spirited and eccentric drifter who travels to Poland with his cousin David (played by Eisenberg) to honor their late grandmother and connect with their Polish-Jewish heritage.[59] Culkin's performance was highly praised by critics. Owen Gleiberman of Variety called it a "sensational piece of acting,"[60] while The Washington Post's Ty Burr found it "both liberating and touched by a deeper, more inarticulate sadness."[61] Culkin received several accolades for his work, including a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture.[62] He will next star in Patrick Marber's Broadway revival of Glengarry Glen Ross opposite Bob Odenkirk and Bill Burr.[63]

Personal life

Culkin first met Jazz Charton, a native of London, at a New York bar in 2011.[64] They eloped on June 22, 2013, in Iowa while they were embarking on a cross-country road trip.[65][66] The couple have two children together: a daughter born in September 2019,[67] and a son born in August 2021.[68]
