In 2024, he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as a grief-stricken Jewish drifter in A Real Pain. On stage, Culkin starred in Kenneth Lonergan's This Is Our Youth in the West End and Broadway productions, and portrayed Richard Roma in the Broadway revival of David Mamet's Glengarry Glen Ross (2025). His voice acting work includes roles in Solar Opposites (2022–2025) and Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (2023). As an actor, Culkin performs across mediums—stage, film, television, and voice—building layered characters that shift genre and format. A Libra born in late September, Culkin's astrological sign reflects his gift for balance: distaste and sympathy, comedy and darkness, youth and maturity coexist in his work.
