Nicolas Cage's Malibu Mansion Damaged by Sinkhole Amid Coastal Erosion and Gas Leak
Oscar-winning actor Nicolas Cage's Malibu beachfront mansion suffered damage after a sinkhole caused part of the driveway to collapse amid coastal erosion and heavy rain. The incident, linked to the effects of Tropical Storm Marie, also caused a gas leak, leading authorities to shut off natural gas and restrict access to five nearby homes. Officials continue assessing safety concerns in the area, with evacuation orders issued for affected properties. Cage purchased the nearly 4,000-square-foot home in 2024.
