From director Dan Mazer (Dirty Grandpa), the Disney original film Home Sweet Home Alone continues the beloved film franchise by following Max Mercer (Archie Yates), a young boy who has been left home alone when his family leaves for the holidays in Japan. At the same time, parents Jeff (Rob Delaney) and Pam McKenzie (Ellie Kemper) believe that Max has a priceless but unusual family heirloom of theirs and that they must do whatever it takes to get it back from the Mercer home, if only they can survive everything that Max puts them through to keep them out. At the virtual junket for the film, Collider got to chat with co-stars Yates and Aisling Bea (who plays Max’s loving mother, Carol) for this interview, which you can both watch and read, about what it was like to get to put Delaney and Kemper through so much, finding the mother-son bond, how Yates has grown as an actor since his debut in Jojo Rabbit, getting to do the big family scenes, and all of the cracking up that happened on set. #ArchieY
