Who played Old Man Marley in Home Alone?
- Clarke Devereux. "Tell 'em to count their kids again," the officer sent to do a wellness check on Kevin says in a thick Chicago accent in the first "Home Alone."
- Marian Seldes. Marian Seldes appears in 1997's "Home Alone 3" as Mrs. Hess, the grumpy neighbor of our new hero Alex (Alex D. Linz) who, just like Old Man Marley and the Pigeon Lady before her, seems scary at first but concludes the movie as a new friend.
- Eddie Bracken. Longtime comic actor Eddie Bracken plays Mr. Duncan, the kindly owner of Duncan's Toy Chest in "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York." Christmas is naturally the busiest time of year down at the Toy Chest, and kindly old Duncan is planning to donate his profits (a giant crate full of cash kept in plain sight inside the store) to a children's hospital — that is, if the Wet Bandits don't steal it first.
- Ralph Foody. If you happened to be an elementary school student in 1990 or 1991, there is a solid chance that you or someone you know curled their lip and grunted "Keep the change, ya filthy animal!"
- John Heard. John Heard's character in "Home Alone" may have forgotten his son, Kevin McCallister, but his role in the film will never be forgotten. Heard played Kevin's dad, Peter McCallister, in the original film and its sequel "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York."
- Roberts Blossom. Roberts Blossom died in 2011 at the age of 87 due to natural causes, Variety reported. His portrayal of "Old Man" Marley in "Home Alone" served as a poignant reminder to never judge a book by its cover.
- Ralph Foody. "Keep the change, ya filthy animals" is one of the most iconic lines from the film, and Ralph Foody executed it perfectly. In "Home Alone," Kevin McCallister watches an old movie titled "Angels With Filthy Souls," where a gangster played by Foody says the iconic phrase after firing off gunshots.
- John Candy. John Candy was The Polka King of the West — better known as Gus Polinsiki in "Home Alone." Candy's character offered Kate McCallister a ride in a van full of musicians to get back to her kid.
- Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister. Culkin's leading role as Kevin catapulted the then-10-year-old child star into the spotlight after the Christmas classic's release.
- Joe Pesci as Harry Lyme. Joe Pesci is no stranger to playing a criminal — although his turn as a con man in the '90s hit was more lighthearted than his usual fare.
- Daniel Stern as Marv Murchins. Daniel Stern's character may not have succeeded in his plot to steal from the McCallisters, but the actor himself has managed to secure a spot in Hollywood in the decades since the film premiered.
- Catherine O'Hara as Kate McCallister. Catherine O'Hara was already a familiar face in Hollywood thanks to several supporting roles throughout the 1980s — most notably in 1988's Beetlejuice.

Few child actors possess the presence to carry a feature film, but it was Macaulay Culkin's bug-eyed expressions and face-slapping gestures as Kevin McCallister that propelled him to immediate stardom—and subsequent leading roles in My Girl (1991), The Good Son (1993) and Richie Rich (1994). However, this meteoric rise fueled other problems, and a ...
Fresh off the career-defining role of Tommy DeVito in Goodfellas (1990), Joe Pesci played his patented hotheaded persona for laughs as Harry, the brainier half of the Wet Bandits criminal duo, in Home Alone and its first sequel. He delivered another memorable show as the titular fish-out-of-water lawyer of My Cousin Vinny (1992), and followed with ...
While in the midst of a successful, but little-known run as the narrator of The Wonder Years, Daniel Stern parlayed his turn as Marv, Harry's dimwitted Wet Bandits partner, to greater name and facial recognition. He played a similarly awkward sidekick alongside Billy Crystal in 1991's City Slickers (and its 1994 sequel), made his feature film direc...
An alumna of the Second City improv troupe, Catherine O'Hara brought a seasoned mix of straight-man earnestness and flustered charm to her role of guilty mom Kate McCallister. She became known for her contributions to the Christopher Guest mockumentaries Best in Show (2000), A Mighty Wind (2003) and For Your Consideration (2006), while also starrin...
Recently seen in less-than-heroic light in the 1988 films Big and Beaches, John Heard returned to audiences' good graces with his Home Alone role of dad Peter McCallister. His career thereafter was perhaps not as buzzworthy as it had been in the '80s, but Heard still landed in high-profile films like In the Line of Fire (1993) and Snake Eyes (1998)...
Devin Ratray hit all the right notes as Kevin's obnoxious big brother Buzz, although, as with his younger cast mate, he found that the film's success spawned headaches from producers who expected him to reprise the character for unrelated projects. Seeking a fresh start, he shelved acting to study film at NYU and the School of Visual Arts, before r...
Yep, that's Macaulay's little brother making his feature film debut as the Pepsi-guzzling, bed-wetting Cousin Fuller. Kieran Culkin began compiling his own impressive resume by way of appearances in Father of the Bride (1991), The Mighty (1998) and The Cider House Rules (1999), leading to a Golden Globe nomination for his starring role in Igby Goes...
Roberts Blossom's Old Man Marley may not have been a serial killer, although the actor did play one in 1974's Deranged, along with virtually every other type of character imaginable in a stage and screen career that spanned more than five decades. He followed Home Alone with appearances in Doc Hollywood (1991) and The Quick and the Dead (1995), bef...
John Candy was already known for his scene-stealing roles in Splash (1984) and Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987) when he re-teamed with erstwhile Second City co-star O'Hara to help save the day as Gus Polinski, the "Polka King of the Midwest." Candy went on to less-than-memorable leading man roles in Only the Lonely and Delirious (both 1991), b...
- Macaulay Culkin (Kevin McCallister) Macaulay Culkin became a household name with the release of Home Alone. The child star, who had previously made TV cameos and appeared in 1989's Uncle Buck, nabbed the starring role in the movie playing Kevin McCallister, a young boy who is accidentally left home alone by his family and faces the ensuing shenanigans of his solo time.
- Joe Pesci (Harry Lime) Already a huge star, Joe Pesci made a hilarious turn in Home Alone as the burglar Harry Lime. His character worked with Marv (Daniel Stern) and faced off against Kevin as they attempted to rob the McCallister house.
- Daniel Stern (Marv Murchins) Daniel Stern joined the flick as Harry's cohort, Marv Merchants. One half of the Wet Bandits burglary team, Stern picked up the gig after a decade in the industry.
- John Heard (Peter McCallister) John Heard appeared in Home Alone as Peter McCallister, the father to Culkin's Kevin. He played the forgetful patriarch after hitting the big screen in 1980's Heart Beat, 1981's Cutter's Way, 1985's Heaven Help Us, and 1988's Big.
