This new installation features 10-year-old Max Mercer, played by Jojo Rabbit star Archie Yates, as the central character, instead of the mischievous Kevin McCallister. When Max is mistakenly left behind by his family as they head to Tokyo, he is only too pleased to have his home all to himself. He then proceeds to do everything he wants to do, such as eating an unhealthy amount of M&M’s as seen in the trailer. However, like in the original Home Alone, Max is faced with trouble and must find clever ways to defend his home from two burglars intending to steal a family heirloom.
