Reports: Driveway of Actor Nicolas Cage’s Malibu Coastal Mansion Collapses
SoCalGas shut off service for an 85-foot stretch after the collapse, and Malibu officials barred entry to five homes as crews investigated the sinkhole.
- On Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2026, a sinkhole collapsed the driveway of actor Nicolas Cage's coastal mansion in Malibu, Calif., as pounding surf battered the beachfront property.
- Pounding surf from Marie, which transitioned from a hurricane to a tropical storm, generated dangerous waves throughout the Southern California coastline, causing the collapse.
- The collapse triggered a gas leak just before 6 a.m., requiring intervention from the Southern California Gas Company; Utility SoCalGas subsequently shut off natural gas services for an 85-foot section of the street.
- Malibu's Building Safety Division prohibited entry to five homes on the street, red-tagging the properties, while authorities closed the private road near Pacific Coast Highway.
- Officials are preparing for continued coastal erosion, heavy rain, and mudslides along the Southern California coast, while Cage purchased the home in 2024 for a reported $10.5 million.
