They're the stars
who make up your favorite holiday movies.
I hope you drop dead of a heart attack!
Here's what they're up to now.

In 1990, Macaulay Culkin starred in one of
the holiday season's most popular movies, Home Alone.
(screaming) (old-timey music)
Of course, he went on to act in the hit sequels,
but made a few pit stops along the way,
including My Girl, Richie Rich, and The Good Son.
He was friends with the late Michael Jackson,
and continued his love of music
by starting a pizza-themed comedy rock band,
The Pizza Underground.
Now he's focusing his time on Bunny Ears,
a pet project lifestyle blog
he calls a mix of Goop and The Onion.
You might have noticed my bunny ears
and thought to yourself,
hey, (bleep), why are you wearing those bunny ears?
Well, that's an outstanding question.
And, to many fans' delight,
almost 30 years after Home Alone's release,
Culkin recreated his scenes
in an ad for Google Assistant.
Mom? (carefree music)
Dad?
Hey Google, what's on my calendar today?
Hey Google, remind me to clean these sheets later.
What do I owe you?
Looks like you paid online.
Keep the change, you filthy animal.
Some things never get old.

Natalie Wood played Suzie
in the 1947 original Miracle on 34th Street.
Oh, you were right, Mommy!
Mr. Kringle is Santa Claus!
She had a long career as a movie star.
In 1961, she was Maria in West Side Story.
♪ Tonight, tonight ♪
♪ There's only you tonight ♪
And starred in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in 1976.
In 1981, Wood died in a mysterious drowning accident
that's been the subject of much speculation.
(film rolls)
Mara Wilson is the cutie who starred
in the remake of Miracle on 34th Street in 1994.
Well, I didn't believe in him last year
and I still got everything I asked my mother for.
She got her big break
just before that in Mrs. Doubtfire.
Can't you just tell Mom you're sorry?
Mara has had cameos in Broad City
and lent her voice to Bojack Horseman.
I'm sorry, did I forget to hang up?
But has taken a step back from acting.
These days, she's passionate
about using her platform to talk about mental health.
I think that it is incredibly crucial,
especially for young people,
to be getting the help that they need.
(film rolls)
Peter Robbins, the voice behind
Charlie Brown in A Charlie Brown Christmas.
I think there must be something wrong with me, Linus.
Christmas is coming, but I'm not happy.
Found success with the cartoon series,
but his luck eventually ran out.
I hope you drop dead of a heart attack!
After a series of legal troubles,
Robbins found himself behind bars
for allegedly sending threatening letters
to a manager and his wife.
He's serving a four year, eight month term
in a prison in California.

Karolyn Grimes is best known for her role
as ZuZu Bailey in It's A Wonderful Life.
Look, Daddy!
Teacher says every time a bell rings,
an angel gets his wings!
The actress starred in the classic
when she was just six years old.
Karolyn only took a handful of acting roles
after the 1946 film.
Now in her seventies, she's a popular guest
at It's A Wonderful Life screenings around the country.

It's been almost 25 years since Eric Lloyd
starred as Charlie Calvin
in Disney's The Santa Clause trilogy.
Out by the roof, there's a rose suchak ladder.
Just like the poem!
Most of his success onscreen
was in the nineties.
Air Staff to Bateman, we have a problem!
Eric now runs a production company
in California with a friend.
(film rolls) He's probably the most
notorious Christmas movie star of all time.
(shouts unintelligibly)
But Peter Billingsley's career has only gone up
since he starred as Ralphie in A Christmas Story in 1983.
Oh, no!
You'll shoot your eye out!
In 2003, he shocked audiences
when he appeared alongside Will Ferrell in Elf.
You're just special.
His title goes beyond actor.
Not only was he in The Breakup,
Ironman, and Four Christmases,
he produced them as well.
A good friend of Vince Vaughn's,
the pair cheers on the Chicago Blackhawks
from the sidelines,
while we keep cheering for his
and all the rest of these holiday star's success.
(shooting) (suspenseful music)
Oh my god, I shot my eye out!
Happy holiday movie watching, everyone.
