A raging fir in Los Angeles fire in Los Angeles is disrupting the world famous film industry forcing Hollywood movie premieres, and some celebrities may be forced to evacuate.
Fueled by a life threatening severe wind storm pummeling Southern California, a bush fire in LA spread over 1,200 acres and forced the evacuation of thousands of people on Tuesday.
A mandatory evacuation order was issued in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood due to life-threatening conditions between Piedra Morada Drive and the Pacific Coast Highway. The Los Angeles Fire Department also stated that multiple homes were under immediate threat.
Steve Guttenberg sprang into action to help firefighters and moved cars stranded on Sunset Boulevard by residents fleeing the fire, he exclusively told Fox News Digital. "It's kind of like Zombieland, you know, there's all these abandoned cars all over the street."
James Woods thanked first responders in posts shared online for keeping his community safe before evacuating his home as flames from the Palisades Fire roared through hills in his backyard.
Woods, 77, captured images of the wildfire as he evacuated, and kept fans updated throughout the day as the flames reached "two houses" away from his own home. The wildfire sparked Tuesday morning in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles.
Tinseltown is also feeling the brunt of the fiery conditions. On Tuesday, the premiere of Jennifer Lopez's latest film, "Unstoppable" was canceled due to fire and wind activity in the city on Tuesday, Jan 7, 2025.
The event at the DGA Theater has been canceled “in light of today’s safety concerns around heightened wind activity and fire outbreaks in Los Angeles," a rep for the movie's distributor, Amazon MGM Studios, said in a statement to PEOPLE.
“As much as we were looking forward to celebrating this wonderful and inspiring film with you, safety is our first priority," the statement continued. "Thank you for your understanding and please stay safe.” Read more
