That house has a sale pending. It is very much in the same style as his previous house except larger, with more land and a pool and a pool house. There's a good chance that he purchased it. It definitely fits his style being a mid century modern and all.
 
Hmmm:thinkin: I actually could see this happening. She keeps her NYC apartment. He buys a house in LA again and they live between them. Does she own something in London?

I think she has a small house in Dalston, East London.


The first thing to know is that Alex's former house wasn't a mansion. Although, that imaginary news article said it was a mansion, it was a smallish house. It was a nicely designed 3 bedroom, but well under 2000 sq ft. If that's a mansion, then I used to own a mansion in my modest middle class suberb.

Alex was house hunting, but it was for a rental, no doubt to use during filming for BLL. The lousy paps gave away the home's address, including a shot of his jazzy BMW in the garage. A simple google search indicates the home was available for leasing in Bel Air. It's sales price is under $3M since it is also modestly sized.

BTW it's actually hard to picture a $4.5M home in Silver Lake, which is slightly down market. That actually would be a mansion. It's close to Los Feliz (where his former house was), and both have hipster appeal because they are older, cheaper neighborhoods.

And no reliable news source has picked up that house purchase story, which includes quotes that sound like fabrications. Alexa spends quite a bit of time in London. A house in LA seems considerably inconvenient.

I don't believe it either, why now? I suppose they're almost finished filming BLL?

BTW why aren't there some more magazine articles or covers to promote Tarzan? The promotion is lower than I was expecting for such an expensive movie. I hope Alex did already some interviews and photo shoots.
 
Regarding Tarzan, there is an interesting article that states that Tarzan might be holding back a bit on Promotion so that they don't over saturate the media too far in advance. They will probably start in the up tick in promotion in the next couple of weeks. Alex being seen out and about, with his girlfriend no less, is part of all this I'm sure. Keep the interest in him high.

I think that they're waiting for Captain America to quiet down before promoting Tarzan. So any time now.

FWIW, he was just spotted in London. And I personally doubt that he'd deliberately be seen with Alexa as put of the promo work. It's not in his nature. If we see them together, it will be a random pap just like it's been so far.

As for BLL, they could be filming out of sequence. Otherwise, it looks lime they've had the big party, and he's done.

It looks like a great house, the garden alone is beautiful, and I agree much like his other one in style. It could very well be him who is buying the house, I agree.

There's a lot of BIG movies coming out. When there's concerned talk about the taking power of X:Men Apocalypse then you know that the studio's are wary. That said, to slot in around those films, Warner Bros are going to have to hit the PR trail hard and fast if they want to sell this thing.

Alex needs it too. Battleship was an ensemble cast and he wasn't carrying it. It was a decent popcorn film if you like those Transformer-esque films that don't require any brain power, but Tarzan is really riding on his shoulders. I'm thinking the over-and-above PR work he did for DoaTG is merely a prelude to what he's going to have to do for this movie.

I saw the pics via a public real estate listing site. I was able to look them up via Google, based on the a$$hole paps providing the address.

I totally agree it's in his style. But it's not in Silver Lake (which would have been his style too). It's in Bel Air. And it's not $4.5M. It was listing for $2-3M. And his old home wasn't a mansion, and her quotes didn't sound like her. And she won't be giving up her places in NY or London - they're fashion and publishing capitols FFS, where she needs to be. So the only thing that "news" story got right was the house-hunting part. The rest was fiction. It's certainly not impossible that HE bought a house (not THEY bought a house). But I was trying to illustrate the reason why that story was a lie. I agree he was house-hunting. The rest is convenient fiction inspired by the house-hunting.

But why do they write Silver Lake instead of Bel Air in the article? Couldn't it be another house? I mean, if he is house hunting, I'm sure Alex wouldn't visit only one house.

Oh, he actually might have been looking in Silver Lake, but a $4.5M home there wouldn't have been his style. It would have been HUGE, based on the down-market aspect of the area. I think the RE agent was blabbing/bragging and may have added the idea that THEY not HE were looking. The agent may have also added the part about his old home being a mansion. But the "news" story may have fabricated everything but the fact that he was house-hunting. And based on the wrong locale in the article, it may not even have been the same agent for the Bel Air home. I was trying to cast doubt on the "wealth" of inside "info" in the article. I had no doubt at all that he was looking and found something. His car was in the garage.

I suppose that is not what you would do if you were house hunting. Well, at least not in my country. So maybe he bought/rented it already? Or can it be one of his friends houses?

^^ The house disappeared from the market a few days after his visit there. Of course he could rent it but I think it's rather unlikely if everyone could take a tour around the house with the agent at that time.

Just an FYI the house is not in Bel Air. It's in the Laurel Canyon area. Not far from Wonderland which I found interesting. Just a bit of trivia considering who his ex played.

He has to have something lined up if he is moving back to LA. It's not BLL since that is pretty much finished I think.
He's going to be gone for much of the Tarzan promo and he's filming Mute in Berlin. NYC would be a better place to stay as a jumping off point for the different locations he'll have to go. He always has a game plan. Maybe he's been offered the lead in another series. But even that idea seems strange with Tarzan about to go global.
This house being larger with its own separate guest space makes it perfect for starting a family.
