‘HOME ALONE’ STAR DANIEL STERN DITCHED HOLLYWOOD FOR QUIET LIFE ON A FARM
Stern is known for his role as “Wet Bandit” Marv in the 90s Christmas classic, “Home Alone.” His character was one of the two criminals who broke into the Chicago home to rob the McCallisters.
The now 68-year-old actor left Hollywood behind to live a slower-paced life with his wife.
He had moved to a farm in Ventura to tend cattle and grow produce, according to People magazine.

Stern also appeared in “Breaking Away,” “City Slickers” and “The Wonder Years.”
He claimed he made “enough money that I didn’t have to work” during his success in the ‘80s and ’90s. According to Stern, he had “an obligation to take advantage of [his] good fortune.” However, his success didn’t come without a couple of near missteps.
“I almost blew it a couple times,” he told the Los Angeles Times of certain career moves.

In fact, Stern, who starred alongside Joe Pesci and Macaulay Culkin in “Home Alone” and “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York,” said he almost lost out on playing Marv as a result of “the stupidest decisions in my showbusiness life.”
Stern said he initially backed out of the deal due to disagreements in the contract. The role was recast, but after a couple of days of rehearsals, the producers urged him to come back.

Stern gave fans a glimpse into what his life has been like since stepping away from the entertainment industry, showcasing his farm life on TikTok.
“Hello, as you will come to discover, I live on a farm, and we grow tangerines here,” Stern showed fans in December 2024.
“I juice them up and then freeze them and give them away to my friends,” he continued before giving viewers a glimpse of his work station.
