Macaulay Culkin's Surprise Cameo in Running Point

0:00It's April 24th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment and Celebrity News today. Your AI-powered Entertainment Report. McCauley-Coken popped up again in Season 2 of Running Point, the Netflix show starring his fiance, Brenda Song. This cameo is sneaky in meta, tying back to his old role in my girl, where his character dies from bee stings. Fans who catch it might feel that sting too. In Season 1, Coken played a grumpy fan at a basketball game yelling for Billy Eilish. And now in Season 2, he links to a flashback showing Song's character, and Kate Hudson's bonding over that heartbreaking movie from their college days. Brenda Song shared how the writers cooked up the idea, and she loves Coken's enthusiasm, though he pitches himself for spots every season. She joked it's her job, but with guests like Ray Romano and Octavia Spencer, he fits right in. Getting his okay was a close call though. Some said he signed off just two days before the April 16th premiere, after some nudging.

1:00No way he could stay in the background anyway. Both seasons of Running Point are streaming now on Netflix, so dive in and spot that clever nod to Coken's past.
