December 23, 2024– Daniel Stern hasn’t watched ‘Home Alone’ since 1990.

The 67-year-old actor played Marv Murchins – who was one-half of the ‘Wet Bandits’ – in the iconic film, but Daniel hasn’t actually watched the hit Christmas movie in its entirety since attending the premiere.

Daniel – who starred alongside Joe Pesci in the comedy film – told PEOPLE: “I’ve seen clips. I’ve seen it pop up. Or like, they have highlights when you turn on the TV, I turn on the TV and there I am falling on the toys or something.

“But yeah, I mean, what, am I going to hunker down and watch me? I love the movie. It’s tremendous. I know the script inside and out.”

In recent years, Daniel has turned his back on the film industry and is instead focused on a new life, which includes creating sculptures out of bronze.

The former actor explained that he can see some similarities between his movies and his sculptures.

Daniel – who also starred in ‘Home Alone 2: Lost in New York’ in 1992 – shared: “Once I’m done with them, they’re not dead … Creatively, they’re done. I need to go to the next one.

“My head is totally forward on the next thing I’m making. And by the time the movie comes out, that was a year ago, and it is great, but I don’t want to go back. I did it. I shot it. I know it. The script was good. That scene went that way. And I’ll see it once and go, yeah, that was good … I just go forward.”
