BEVERLY HILTON, LOS ANGELES: 'Home Alone' child actor Kieran Culkin ignited sparks as he claimed having a spinoff for HBO's 'Succession' is a "horrible idea" at the Golden Globes 2024.

When asked, "Do we want a 'Succession' spinoff for you?" the actor replied, "I feel like spin-off is a horrible idea." The answer stunned the interviewers and he asked, "Why?"

Culkin claimed, "Because it's a spin-off, just the word's been off." He intended to claim that often spin-off shows don't work out well.

Culkin then played safe by saying, "Sometimes it's gonna work." He then thought for a while and said, "Cousin Greg would make a good spinoff show." 

A user uploaded Culkin's photo saying, "ATEEEE THE F**K DOWN." Another mocked him, "Sorry pleaseignore my behaviour im so f**king evil rn OHH MY GOD KIERAN CULKIN."

Another called out the actor and wrote, "He needs a job." Hearing Culkin claiming spinoff to be a horrible idea, one tweeted, "Turns out I actually don't want a succession spinoff." 

Another mocked him, "BREAKING: kieran culkin is on his hands and knees salivating for a cousin greg spinoff show."

Another user wrote, "I’m pretty sure it’s the upcoming Succession spinoff starring Kieran Culkin."
