Brad Pitt's Los Feliz Home Ransacked in Late-Night Burglary While Actor Attends London Premiere

Brad Pitt’s Los Angeles residence in the upscale Los Feliz neighborhood was broken into and ransacked late Wednesday night by a group of intruders, as confirmed by the Los Angeles Police Department. The burglary occurred around 10:30 p.m. when three suspects forced entry through a front window of the property. They rummaged through the house and fled the scene with several stolen items, though police have not disclosed exactly what was taken.

While authorities have not officially confirmed the identity of the homeowner, the address matches the property Brad Pitt purchased in 2023, pointing clearly to the Hollywood icon as the victim. Fortunately, Pitt was not present at the time of the incident, as he was overseas attending the London premiere of his new film "F1," which is set to release on Friday. He was joined at the premiere by Tom Cruise and Formula One legend Lewis Hamilton, who also contributed to the production of the movie.

Details about the stolen items remain under wraps as the investigation continues, and no arrests have been made yet. Representatives for Pitt have not issued an official statement regarding the burglary.

The home targeted in the break-in is one of Los Angeles' architectural gems. Known as the Steel House, this mid-century modern masterpiece sits just outside Griffith Park, within view of the iconic Hollywood Sign. Designed in 1960 by architect Neil M. Johnson, the 2,000-square-foot home features floor-to-ceiling glass walls, terrazzo flooring, and open-webbed joist ceilings that give it an airy, minimalistic vibe. The three-bedroom property includes a dual-sided fireplace, a modern kitchen with powder-blue accents, and plush carpeted bedrooms with walk-in closets.

Outdoors, the property boasts a central swimming pool, hot tub, freestanding sauna, and lush tropical landscaping that enhances its privacy. Solar panels add to the home’s eco-conscious design. Once owned by Maroon 5 guitarist James Valentine and oil heiress Aileen Getty, the house was acquired by Pitt in April 2023 for approximately $5.5 million. The actor reportedly chose this more design-focused and manageable property after parting with his previous seven-bedroom Craftsman-style estate in the same neighborhood.

This incident adds to a growing list of high-profile burglaries in Los Angeles, where celebrity homes are increasingly being targeted. In recent months, stars like Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have also reported break-ins. Just last month, a man was arrested on charges of stalking and vandalism after allegedly ramming his car into the gate of Jennifer Aniston’s home—Pitt’s former wife.

The break-in at Pitt’s Los Feliz home raises fresh concerns about the vulnerability of even the most private celebrity residences. With rising incidents targeting affluent neighborhoods, local authorities continue to urge homeowners—especially public figures—to tighten security measures and remain vigilant.
