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 gave birth to a total of seven children: Culkin's siblings include Shane (b. 1976), Dakota (1979–2008),[3] Macaulay (b. 1980), Quinn (b. 1984), Christian (b. 1987), and Rory (b. 1989).[1] He also had a paternal half-sister, Jennifer (born 1970), who died in 2000.[4] Culkin's paternal aunt is actress Bonnie Bedelia.[5]

He spent his early life in the Yorkville neighborhood of Manhattan, where he resided with his parents and siblings.[1] In 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 ever since.[6]

Career

Culkin's first film role was a small part alongside his brother Macaulay in Home Alone, as cousin Fuller McCallister. He continued acting as a child and teenager, mainly working in comedies, including Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, Father of the Bride, and its sequel, Father of the Bride Part II.

As a teenager, he alternated between lead roles in independent films and small parts in mainstream films. He appeared in the Academy Award-nominated movie Music of the Heart, played the title role in the film Igby Goes Down,[7] for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award, and played the lead role in The Mighty as Kevin Dillon.

He is one of the ensemble main cast members in the HBO series Succession. In 2018, 2020, and 2021, he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor - Series, Miniseries or Television Film for his role as Roman Roy on the show.

Personal life

Culkin married Jazz Charton on June 8, 2013.[8] They have two children together, a daughter born September 2019 and a son born August 2021.[9][10]
