Kieran Culkin is celebrating a major victory and milestone in his career, after taking home an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series. This follows shortly after another victory, this one winning the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Series – Drama, both wins thanks to his performance in Succession. Kieran has been an industry mainstay for over three decades, ever since his debut film appearance in Home Alone as none other than the brother of Kevin McCallister, played by his real-life brother Macaulay. Kieran also had a memorable role in both Father of the Bride films and a perfect throwback clip from that franchise has gone viral in the wake of his latest victory.

Succession marks the first time a show has earned three nominations in the same year for the drama actor category. Witnessing his first Emmy win were Kieran's former co-stars from the early days of his career, a fact that has the internet going wild. On Twitter, a clip is going around showing Kieran in Father of the Bride dressed to the nines for an upcoming wedding. Disregarding his formal attire, Kieran's Matty Banks pretends to prepare to down the stair railing to land in front of his horrified parents, played by Steve Martin and Diane Keaton, along with the wedding planner Franck, played by Martin Short. Matty cuts the joke off short with a grin before strolling primly down to them.

Indeed, both Short and Martin were at the Peacock Theater to watch the big moment. The post and accompanying video have over 1 million views. Congratulations on the Emmy, Kieran Culkin!
