Chris Pratt returned to his house for the first time since the California wildfires broke out earlier this month.
Chris, his wife Katherine Schwarzenegger and their three children, including their newborn Ford Fitzgerald Schwarzenegger Pratt, were forced to evacuate when the fire broke out in the Pacific Palisades.
"Miraculously, it's still standing," said Pratt in a video he posted on Instagram Thursday. "By the grace of God, we have four walls and a roof.
The wildfires in California broke out on Jan. 7, 2025, and have since gone on to claim over two dozen lives between the Eaton and Palisades fires.
"I'm going to check out the town," said Pratt. I haven't been back since the Palisades fires. It's truly devastating."
He went on to say the silver lining was that his house had been saved, but he said at the same time, so many people's houses burned down around them.
"The community is gone. My son's school is gone. My son's mom's house burned down. Dozens of our friends lost their homes. It's just wild.
According to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, the Palisades fire, which has grown to over 23,000 acres, was 77 percent contained by late Friday morning. While the Eaton fire, sitting at over 14,000 acres was 95 percent contained.
Meanwhile, a new wildfire broke out this week in southern California. The Hughes fire has grown to over 10,300 acres and is only 56 percent contained.
"We're resilient and we trust in God and consider it all a blessing," said Pratt. "Thanks for all your prayers and your support and your help.
