The 1992 movie is the follow-up to the 1990 instant holiday classic  Home Alone , which introduced  Macaulay Culkin  as Kevin. The sequel is scaled up to greater geographic proportions as Kevin accidentally gets on a flight to New York City when the rest of his family is headed to Miami. The movie features Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O'Hara, Kieran Culkin, and John Heard, and  famously has a cameo from now-President Donald Trump. Speaking with the  San Francisco Chronicle , Columbus wishes Trump's cameo never happened. He explained that  Home Alone 2  was screened in Chicago, and  the Trump cameo scene was wildly popular . He specified that \" they [the audience] cheered and they cheered and they thought it was hilarious .\" So, it was kept in the movie, but the director \" wish[es] it was not there \" and  says Trump was lying when he said that Columbus \" begged him to be in the movie .\"  Check out the full quote from Columbus below: We screened the film in Chicago, and when that moment came onscreen the audience went crazy. They cheered and they cheered and they thought it was hilarious. I think I know a lot about comedy, but I don’t, obviously, because I never thought that was going to be considered hilarious. Years later, it’s become this curse. It’s become this thing that I wish it was not there. What’s going through this guy’s mind? He said I was lying. I’m not lying. He said I begged him to be in the movie, but there’s no world I would ever beg a non-actor to be in a movie. But we were desperate to get the Plaza Hotel. But it’s there. It’s become an albatross for me. I just wish it was gone. \n                        What This Means For Home Alone 2\n                \n            Trump Previously Posted About This Issue Online\n     In the movie, Trump appeared at the  iconic Plaza Hotel in New York City, which he owned at the time . He helps provide Kevin with directions when asking for the lobby. In 2020, Columbus was quoted saying that Trump told him \" The only way you can use the Plaza is if I’m in the movie. \" In 2023, Trump himself discovered this quote and abjectly rejected this claim. He took to social media to say that Columbus was \" begging \" him to be in  Home Alone 2: Lost in New York , expressing the opposite message. At the time, Columbus did not respond to Trump's statement. Related \n\t\t\t11 Filming Locations From Home Alone 2, Then Vs. Now\n\t\t In Home Alone 2, Kevin hits up all the good spots in New York but some locations are a little different these days. Here they are, then versus now. Two years later, Columbus doubles down that he definitely did not beg Trump to be in the film. In fact, the director notes that \" there's no world [he] would ever beg a non-actor to be in a movie .\" He also  reiterated the Plaza Hotel location being the reason for Trump's appearance , saying that he and his team were \" desperate to get the Plaza Hotel .\" Now, he not only maintains this story but expresses his regret over Trump's appearance in the movie. \n                        Our Take On Trump's Home Alone 2 Appearance\n                \n            Trump's Controversial Status Makes This Appearance Unfortunate\n     It is not unlike Trump to want to save face, so his 2023 social media post about  Home Alone 2  is unsurprising. Columbus' side of the story is also completely sound, given he has maintained this position for over five years. However, the reality is that Trump's inclusion in the Christmas movie sequel is an unfortunate element of  Home Alone 2 ' s legacy , as the President has become a contentious political figure. He only appears in the movie briefly, but it is still somewhat of \" a curse \" for the movie.

Meta Title	Home Alone 2 Director Challenges Donald Trump's Cameo Backstory, Explains Why "Cursed" Moment Stayed In The Movie
Meta Description	Home Alone 2: Lost in New York director Chris Columbus says that he wishes Donald Trump's cameo in the movie had never happened and why it wasn't cut.
Meta Canonical	null
Boilerpipe Text	Home Alone 2: Lost in New York director Chris Columbus expresses regret over Donald Trump's appearance in the film. The 1992 movie is the follow-up to the 1990 instant holiday classic Home Alone , which introduced Macaulay Culkin as Kevin. The sequel is scaled up to greater geographic proportions as Kevin accidentally gets on a flight to New York City when the rest of his family is headed to Miami. The movie features Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, Catherine O'Hara, Kieran Culkin, and John Heard, and famously has a cameo from now-President Donald Trump. Speaking with the San Francisco Chronicle , Columbus wishes Trump's cameo never happened. He explained that Home Alone 2 was screened in Chicago, and the Trump cameo scene was wildly popular . He specified that " they [the audience] cheered and they cheered and they thought it was hilarious ." So, it was kept in the movie, but the director " wish[es] it was not there " and says Trump was lying when he said that Columbus " begged him to be in the movie ." Check out the full quote from Columbus below: We screened the film in Chicago, and when that moment came onscreen the audience went crazy. They cheered and they cheered and they thought it was hilarious. I think I know a lot about comedy, but I don’t, obviously, because I never thought that was going to be considered hilarious. Years later, it’s become this curse. It’s become this thing that I wish it was not there. What’s going through this guy’s mind? He said I was lying. I’m not lying. He said I begged him to be in the movie, but there’s no world I would ever beg a non-actor to be in a movie. But we were desperate to get the Plaza Hotel. But it’s there. It’s become an albatross for me. I just wish it was gone. What This Means For Home Alone 2 Trump Previously Posted About This Issue Online In the movie, Trump appeared at the iconic Plaza Hotel in New York City, which he owned at the time . He helps provide Kevin with directions when asking for the lobby. In 2020, Columbus was quoted saying that Trump told him " The only way you can use the Plaza is if I’m in the movie. " In 2023, Trump himself discovered this quote and abjectly rejected this claim. He took to social media to say that Columbus was " begging " him to be in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York , expressing the opposite message. At the time, Columbus did not respond to Trump's statement. Related 11 Filming Locations From Home Alone 2, Then Vs. Now In Home Alone 2, Kevin hits up all the good spots in New York but some locations are a little different these days. Here they are, then versus now. Two years later, Columbus doubles down that he definitely did not beg Trump to be in the film. In fact, the director notes that " there's no world [he] would ever beg a non-actor to be in a movie ." He also reiterated the Plaza Hotel location being the reason for Trump's appearance , saying that he and his team were " desperate to get the Plaza Hotel ." Now, he not only maintains this story but expresses his regret over Trump's appearance in the movie. Our Take On Trump's Home Alone 2 Appearance Trump's Controversial Status Makes This Appearance Unfortunate It is not unlike Trump to want to save face, so his 2023 social media post about Home Alone 2 is unsurprising. Columbus' side of the story is also completely sound, given he has maintained this position for over five years. However, the reality is that Trump's inclusion in the Christmas movie sequel is an unfortunate element of Home Alone 2 ' s legacy , as the President has become a contentious political figure. He only appears in the movie briefly, but it is still somewhat of " a curse " for the movie. Source: San Francisco Chronicle
