NBC News reports that the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating a burglary at the actor's house.
The thieves took an unknown amount of property.
Pitt was not home at the time, sources told the network, and is currently promoting F1: The Movie.
A spokesperson for the LAPD confirmed to NBC that a break-in occurred at 10:30 pm on Wednesday at a residence in the Los Feliz neighbourhood.
They did not identify who lived in the home or who owned it.
Police are searching for three suspects who climbed over a fence and broke in through the home's front window, sources told the network.
Meanwhile, Pitt has shared more of his experience relying on Alcoholics Anonymous following his divorce from Angelina Jolie.
Appearing on the latest Armchair Expert podcast episode, Pitt spoke to Dax Shepard about them meeting through the private recovery group and how it helped Pitt through a tough time.
The Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Oscar winner previously opened up about his journey to sobriety following his divorce from Angelina Jolie. After the split, reports alleged that the pair had been involved in heated arguments in which Pitt, 61, was under the influence of alcohol.
Speaking on the podcast, Pitt recalled: 'You know, I was pretty much on my knees and I was really open. I was trying anything and everyone, anything anyone threw at me.

'It was a difficult time,' he continued. 'I needed rebooting. I needed to wake the f*** up in some areas. And it just meant a lot to me.'
Pitt — who appeared on the podcast to discuss the upcoming release of his new film, F1 — also commented on how everyone in attendance at that initial meeting was so open.
'It gives you permission in a way to go, okay, I'm going to step out on this edge and see what happens,' he said. 'And then I really grew to love it.'

Disney holds ‘crisis talks' after Jared Leto sexual misconduct report threatens to derail release of movie Tron: Ares
DISNEY has found itself scrambling to organize the promotion of Jared Leto's new movie amid historic claims of sexual impropriety, an insider has exclusively told The U.S. Sun. Leto, 53, has been accused by nine women, including some who were teenagers at the time. 4 Jared Leto speaks on stage about Disney's Tron: Ares during CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas on April 3, 2025 Credit: AFP 4 The Oscar-winning actor is the lead in the movie, scheduled for an October release, and is also one of the producers Credit: YouTube/ONE Media Model Laura La Rue was among the accusers who said she was just 16 when the star, then 36, began flirting through messages and once emerged from a room at his house naked, according to a damming Recalling the alleged experience at his house, she said, "I thought maybe this was just what adult men do." Leto's reps denied any wrongdoing, saying, "Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate and Ms La Rue later applied to work as his personal assistant." La Rue denied she ever applied for the job, according to AirMail. He is not being sued or charged with any crime, but the report has thrown a wrench in the works when it comes to promoting his latest films. The Oscar-winning actor has two big-budget films being released in the coming months at Disney and Amazon MGM, Tron: Are s and Masters of the Universe. Ahead of Tron's release in October, Disney is scheduled to host a panel at San Diego ComicCon at the end of July, "Jared wants it to be business as usual ahead of the release of his new movie, but Disney is nervous about the promotion of Tron," an insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun. Most read in Entertainment "The accusations of sexual misconduct couldn't have come at a worse time. "The marketing team has been having crisis meetings ahead of its theatrical release in October. Jared Leto shows off bold change to his appearance at MTV VMAs - as fans think he looks just like Kanye West's ex "Disney is planning to host a panel at San Diego ComicCon to push Tron: Ares and Jared has made it known that he's happy to be on it. "He doesn't want to hide away having denied the allegations and not only is he the lead, he's one of the producers. "Talks are still ongoing about how to handle the situation, but he will likely take part in some capacity and hold his head high. "He is not being sued civilly and he isn't being charged with a crime, if he were I think things would be a lot different." Disney may still have to cut its losses on this one." An insider told The U.S. Sun Leto took to the stage to speak about Tron: Ares during CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas on April 3, 2025, just two months before the report was published by AirMail. One woman speaking to the outlet claimed his behavior "has been an open secret for a long time." The U.S. Sun's source added, "Disney may still have to cut its losses on this one but will still do what it can to promote the movie and create a buzz." Neither Disney nor a representative for Leto responded to a request for comment. San Diego Comic-Con runs from July 24 to 27. Tron is scheduled to be released in theaters on October 10. The movie also Jodie Turner-Smith, Greta Lee, Cameron Monaghan, and Jeff Bridges. And although a big-budget movie usually comes with TV and print interview slots for its lead star and a social media push, there has been no marketing since the initial trailer was released in April. Leto is also set to appear in Masters of the Universe, which is scheduled for release in June 2026, although he is not the lead character in the live-action feature film. The actor has been cast as Skeletor, the primary antagonist to Nicholas Galitzine' s He-Man, according to reports.

Pic:Then, at just 16, Kerry landed her first role in Alan Parker's Angela's Ashes, marking the start of a glittering career. Her early television appearances saw her land roles in the BBC series Ballykissangel, but it was theatre that saw her true talents shine bright. Her groundbreaking role came in 2001 when she took on the part of Ophelia, making her the youngest actress to tackle this classic with the Royal Shakespeare Company. This, coupled with her stage work in Martin McDonagh's The Lieutenant of Inishmore, marked Kerry out for true stardom.
