At the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, California, on Monday, September 14, the late and beloved Catherine O’Hara was honored by three of her on-screen children to open the yearly In Memoriam segment.
Macaulay Culkin, Annie Murphy, and Dan Levy were the trio of former co-stars in question. Culkin, 46, Murphy, 39, and Levy, 43, have all played O’Hara’s offspring.
GettyIn Culkin’s case, he famously played Kevin McCallister, son of O’Hara’s Kate McCallister, in the iconic Christmas comedy movies “Home Alone” and “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York,” in 1990 and 1992, respectively.
Murphy and Levy played Alexis Rose and David Rose, daughter and son to O’Hara’s Moira Rose in the CBC sitcom “Schitt’s Creek” from 2015 until 2020.
Since the lovely tribute they paid to O’Hara, Culkin has taken to social media to pay his own mini tribute to Murphy and Levy.
