Home Alone villain unrecognisable 34 years after Christmas film with totally different career

A Home Alone icon took to their social media to showcase what they've been up to, including farming and sculpting

Home Alone star Daniel Stern looks totally different after balancing Hollywood with a peaceful life on a farm.

The actor, 67, is best known for his role as burglar Marv Murchins in the hit 1990 Christmas classic, which also stars Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Kieran Culkin, Catherine O'Hara and John Heard. Daniel was also in the sequel Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, which came out two years after the original.

The actor starred in many productions since Home Alone but slowly shifted his career from actor to farmer over the years. His last movie was James vs. His Future Self in 2019 and he stars as Eli Hobson in For All Mankind. Daniel now lives on a farm and grows tangerines. He's also a cattle rancher and works as a sculptor.

Daniel, rocking a grey hoodie and disheveled grey hair and a bear, took to TikTok to share a life update with followers. He revealed he was picking and selling the tangerines on his farm. The actor said: "Hello, as you have come to discover, I live on a farm and we grow tangerines here.

"They came and picked them the other day and I like to have them pick me a bin and then I juice them up, and then I freeze them and give them away to my friends. I just wanted to show you what is it like, here are our tangerines, there is my bucket." The video gained millions of views.

In another clip, he showed off the sculptures he's been working on. "I thought I would share this work in-progress video of a new sculpture I am creating. Thinking of naming it Dancer On A Chair," he captioned the post. Fans of the star rushed to the comment section to gush over the talented actor.

"Omg marv!!! I thought you were just a actor and comedian, this is amazing!" one impressed user said while another posted: "I had no idea that Daniel Stern did sculpture. That's awesome." Another delighted fan commented: "You're an artist??? Woooow! How wonderful!" One said: "what I love the most is seeing famous people doing normal people stuff."

Some were stunned by the complexities of the sculpture and wondered whether it was attached to the chair. One wrote: "Wow, when I first glanced down I thought that was real fabric and wondered how long it took Then I still wondered how long it took! Is she attached to that chair? Or can the sculpture be placed on any surface that tall?!"
