‘Hacks’ Altadena Mansion Destroyed As More Historic Homes Used In Hollywood Productions Feared Lost In LA Fires


A number of historic houses used in movies and TV series have been destroyed in the LA fires, including the Altadena mansion seen on Max's Hacks.

Also gone in the devastating wildfires are pieces of Hollywood history, with a number of historic houses used in iconic movies and TV series threatened or destroyed. The set had been written for the famous ‘Pink Princess Mansion Estate’ filming location, but due to a new owner and complete remodel, the Universal TV series’ production team pivoted, with location manager Kyle Sucher suggesting the five-bedroom Altadena mansion, according to Production Designer Alec Contestabile, an Emmy nominee for his work on the show. After the Eaton fire broke out, Kradolfer reached out to six families living on that block; three of them have confirmed that they have lost their homes.
