Entertainment: Pratt and Schwarzenegger’s Home; Emmy Awards

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are selling their home.

By BERNICE FOX

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger still are looking for a buyer for their six-bedroom, 12-bathroom home on a private street in Pacific Palisades. Want to see it?Doors will be open this Sunday, September 14, from 2 to 5 p.m. as their realtor holds an open house. A link to the home’s listing is at the end of this article.

With the celebrity couple currently building a new home in Brentwood directly across the street from her mom, Maria Shriver, it’s clear that Pratt and Schwarzenegger are anxious to sell. About a month ago they lowered the price a third time to about $20 million. When they first put the home on the market in July 2023, they listed it at $32 million.

The nearly 13,000-square-foot home has not been on the market all this time. They took itoff in June of last year, in advance of the birth of their third child, a boy named Ford Fitzgerald Schwarzenegger Pratt. He arrived in November. They put their Palisades house back up for sale last month. This Sunday’s open house is at least the second they’ve held in the last few weeks.

If you go to the open house, it’s unlikely you’d run into the couple. They’ve already moved out and reports are that they’re staying in a home owned by Katy Perry in Montecito until their Brentwood home is finished.

EMMY AWARDS SHOW

Mary Steenburgen and Ted Danson will be honored at the Emmy Awards.

This Sunday wraps up with a big entertainment event involving several Palisadians. It’s the Primetime Emmy Awards on CBS. They begin at 5 p.m., the same time the open house ends.

The Emmy spotlight will be on the Rustic Canyon couple Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen. They’ll receive the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award. The Television Academy says they’re being recognized with this high honor for “a lifetime of extraordinary philanthropy, activism and unwavering commitment to global good.”

Danson is a longtime environmentalist with a focus on the ocean. Steenburgen advocates for arts in the schools. Both also are actively involved in many other organizations.

As Circling the News reported when the nominations were announced in July, two Palisades residents and a third with Palisades roots are up for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.

Adam Brody is up for Nobody Wants This. It’s his first nomination.

Jason Segel, who grew up in the Palisades and now lives in Ojai, is nominated for Shrinking. This is his second Emmy nomination. His first was a couple of years ago for the same comedy series.

Martin Short

And former honorary Pacific Palisades mayor Martin Short is up for an Emmy again for Only Murders in the Building. It’s his fourth nomination in this category for this show. During his career, Short has racked up 19 Emmy nominations in various categories and he’s won twice.

All these shows are also up for Outstanding Comedy Series. Shrinking has another local connection because new honorary Palisades co-mayor, Ted McGinley, also is in the cast.

Add The Bear to the list of shows with local links that are nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series. Jamie Lee Curtis has a guest role in The Bear. She won an Emmy for that role last year and was up again this time but didn’t get it. Emmys for guest roles and more were handed out last weekend.

Andor in the Star Wars universe has a local connection. The show is up for Outstanding Drama Series. Palisades High grad Forest Whitaker has a guest role. He had been nominated but didn’t get it.

This Sunday, Palisades resident Lesli Linka Glatter will find out if she wins an Emmy for directing the TV movie, Zero Day.

Conan O’Brien won an Emmy at last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys, as they’re called. His new Emmy is for his travel show Conan O’Brien Must Go. He and the show won Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series or Special.

Other Palisadians who were up for Emmys last weekend but will have to be honored just to be nominated because they didn’t win, are Adam Sandler, Miles Teller and the father-daughter composing team of Thomas Newman and Julia Newman. And Tom Hanks had been up for an Emmy for narration. He lost to an up-and-comer, former President Barack Obama.

    Don’t forget third generation Palisadian Brittany Burgess Crapper, up for her first Emmy for Producing Survivor (Nom for Best Reality Show)

    The first photo is of Chris Pratt, not Spencer Pratt. The two Pratts are not related, despite some jokes out there that they are cousins.

    Linda,

    Thanks–prior to working on the story I spoke to a NY Times reporter about Spencer and the name was stuck in my head.

    NOW I understand why Pratt/Schwarzenegger demolished the historically SIGNIFICANT Zimmerman House by adopted transplant architect Craig Ellwood in Brentwood, Los Angeles, in early 2024 to make way for a new, large farmhouse-style mansion. It also had landscaping by Garrett Eckbo – who has been described as the pioneer of modern landscaping. It was an atrocity that they demolished this Craig Ellwood home before the LA Conservancy could save it.

    The Case Study home project by the magazine Arts & Architecture to address the post-World War II housing boom by designing and building inexpensive, efficient, and replicable model homes that explored new materials and construction techniques for modern living, which ended up “inventing” the indoor outdoor connection in the USA, especially Los Angles. It was one of the move important architectural movements in history, not just for CA. Designed Case Study homes built in the Palisades and completely threatened by the Palisades Fire are numbers:
