Nicolas Cage says he's 'currently homeless' after giant sinkhole opened up next to his L.A. mansion
Key Points:
- Nicolas Cage revealed he is currently "a little bit homeless" after his Malibu mansion suffered severe damage from a massive sinkhole caused by heavy rain and coastal erosion in September.
- The $10.5 million beachfront property partially collapsed, with the driveway sinking into a deep hole, leading to the evacuation of neighbors and 31 homes being deemed unsafe due to blocked emergency access.
- Cage has been living in hotels and adjusted his Halloween plans, taking his daughter trick-or-treating in Santa Monica and planning to watch "The Shining" after bedtime.
- He is actively working to save his home, having obtained emergency permits to place sandbags for wave protection and to conduct debris removal and soil testing in preparation for repairs.
- The City of Malibu highlighted that the sinkhole's impact on the driveway and roadway compromised emergency response access, prompting red-tagging of multiple properties on the street.
