Trump briefly appears in the follow-up to the 1990 smash
Home Alone, passing young Kevin McAllister (Macaulay Culkin) in the hallway of Manhattan’s glitzy Plaza Hotel when Kevin stops him to ask for directions. The sequel, originally distributed by 20th Century Fox, now falls under the Disney umbrella after the studios’ 2019 merger.
Neither Disney nor Chris Columbus, the director of
Home Alone and
Home Alone 2, immediately responded to requests for comment.
However, in a recent interview with Yahoo Entertainment, Columbusexplained how Trump ended up in the film, saying the businessman-turned-politician who owned The Plaza at the time essentially forced his way into it.
