The actor also explained how he sees Dakota “Cody” Culkin — who died at 29 after being struck by a car — in his character on HBO's "Succession."
Kieran Culkin is once again opening up about the 2008 death of his sister Dakota “Cody” Culkin.
In a “CBS News Sunday Morning” interview aired over the weekend, the “Succession” star spoke candidly about his sibling, who died at 29 after being struck by a car in California.
“I only knew who I was because of who my siblings are,” Kieran Culkin said. “So, to lose one was losing a big piece of myself. But losing one of my favorite people in the world — it doesn’t get better, and it doesn’t get easier. It’s just, you get used to it.”
Culkin, who has been acting since childhood, garnered acclaim for his role on HBO’s “Succession,” in which he played Roman Roy, the acerbic and emotionally stunted son of a media magnate.
“After a couple seasons on ‘Succession,’ I realized there was some stuff that Roman did that I was like: ‘Oh, that’s my sister. That was her sense of humor,’” said Culkin. “She could find exactly what the right thing to make fun of you was that would get to you, but be really funny and make the room laugh.”
