Joe Burrow was asked before the Cincinnati Bengals' Super Bowl 56 appearance who would play him in a movie.

Burrow's response? According to ESPN's Ben Baby, some have told him that he looks like Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin.

More than a year and a half later, NFL fans are getting a chance to see the uncanny resemblance thanks to Culkin's Halloween costume.

Culkin decided to dress up as Burrow for Halloween. The 44-year-old posted photos of his outfit on Instagram and tagged the Bengals quarterback in the caption.

“Play on @joeyb_9,” Culkin wrote.

The Bengals were fans of Culkin's post and excitedly commented, “WHO DEY!!!” on it. Culkin himself later invited Burrow to join in the fun with a commentary of his own.

“The ball is in your court, Joey B,” Culkin wrote in his post.

Will Burrow try to dress up as Culkin for Halloween? It won't be as easy to pull off as Culkin's Burrow costume, as there are many iterations of Culkin that Burrow could opt for.

Would Burrow dress up as Kevin McAllister from the Home Alone series or would he opt for one of Culkin's newer projects? Maybe dressing up as Culkin's character from American Horror Story: Double Feature would fit the mood of the season.

Of course, if Burrow hadn't coordinated his costume with Culkin, the Bengals quarterback wouldn't have known about it until the actor-slash-musician posted his costume on social media on Wednesday. Therefore, Burrow may have other plans for his Halloween costume.

Either way, Culkin's costume makes him one of the clear favorites in a Burrow lookalike competition. Barring a challenge from “John Wick: Chapter 4” and “The Crow” star Bill Skarsgaard, Culkin still appears to be the best double for the Bengals' quarterback.
