<나 홀로 집에>The protagonist ‘Kevin’ is the fourth of five siblings.
He has two older brothers and two older sisters. Although all of them were scene stealers, our main character today, Hillary Wolf, played ‘Kevin’s’ older sister ‘Megan’.

Hillary Wolf, who was active as a professional judo player, is now living a normal life after marrying Chris Sabo, a wrestling athlete who also participated in the Olympics twice.
If ‘Kevin’, played by Macaulay Culkin, was the protagonist of the first and second installments, the protagonist of the third installment was ‘Alex’, not ‘Kevin’.
‘Alex’, like ‘Kevin’, has an older brother and sister.
The actress who played the role of his sister ‘Molly’ was a young Scarlett Johansson.
Although they didn’t know it at the time, people who later watched <나 홀로 집에 3> were surprised to discover Scarlett Johansson.
Afterwards, Scarlett Johansson, who was actively working as a child actor, gained recognition for her acting skills in the 2001 films <그 남자는 거기 없었다> and <판타스틱 소녀백서>.

In 2010, Scarlett Johansson joined the Marvel film as the hero ‘Black Widow’, and began to rise as a box-office guarantee in Hollywood.
Her solo film <블랙 위도우> was also successful at the box office, recording the highest box-office earnings among female actors in Hollywood.
In addition, she showcased outstanding acting skills in the Netflix film <결혼 이야기>, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress.
Scarlett Johansson, who has proven her acting skills in various works, threw down the gauntlet as a businesswoman in February last year.
She launched the skincare brand ‘The Outset’, and took the position of chairman of the brand.
In response, Scarlett Johansson said, “I’ve been the face of various luxury brands throughout my career, and all those experiences were wonderful. But I’ve been wondering how to surpass that.”
She continued, “I’ve always felt like I was playing a character in campaigns, and I wanted to create and represent my own authentic brand,” explaining why she chose the path of a businesswoman.
Despite transforming into a businesswoman, she did not neglect her acting career.
Thanks to this, she currently has five upcoming projects, including the movie ‘Bride’, so it seems we will be able to continue seeing her active in the future.
