Macaulay Culkin was seen shooting a rough-and-tumble fight scene for his upcoming role in Season 10 of “American Horror Story.”
The “Home Alone” star was caught on video Thursday getting dunked in the ocean and packing punches while filming in the water underneath the Malibu Pier.

A stunt double was reportedly called in for the riskier moves.
The 40-year-old was snapped between takes smoking a cigarette and drinking Red Bull.

Producers announced earlier this year that Culkin would join the upcoming season of FX’s “AHS” alongside Sarah Paulson, Kathy Bates, Billie Lourd, Leslie Grossman, Evan Peters, Adina Porter, Lily Rabe, Angelica Ross and Finn Wittrock.
Production had previously been put on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Show creator Ryan Murphy psyched up fans by calling Culkin’s role “a very, very great, insane part.”

“I asked to speak to him on the phone and he said OK,” Murphy told E! News of securing the star for the role. “[When] I cast, I never let people read things, usually.
I said, ‘OK, here’s the pitch.’ And I told them the character and I told him he has crazy, erotic sex with Kathy Bates and does other things.
“And he paused and he goes, ‘This sounds like the role I was born to play.’ So, he signed up right then and there.”
Murphy is a longtime Culkin fan.
“I loved everything that he’s done. I love the stuff he did in ‘Home Alone.’ I also loved the sort of the older, more recent stuff that he did,” he said. “And he hasn’t worked in a while.”
