Owen Wilson looked downcast as he stepped out on Thursday to assess the aftermath of the LA wildfires.

The Marley & Me actor, 56, is one of many celebrities who own a home in Pacific Palisades - a neighbourhood between the Santa Monica mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

Owen was seen out and about wearing a blue and green plaid jacket and light beige chinos and added a surgical face mask. 

The star was spotted looking over a fence before walking through the damaged area as recovery efforts began.

Dozens of celebrities have been forced to flee their ritzy mega-mansions in coastal Los Angeles as three raging infernos threaten to raze the city to the ground.

More than 30,000 residents evacuated their homes as a massive wildfire ripped through the celeb enclave of Pacific Palisades, burning nearly 3,000 acres and reducing dozens of homes to rubble.

A second blaze, dubbed the Eaton Fire, broke out some 30 miles inland in Altadena, near Pasadena, and increased in size to 1,000 acres from 200 acres in a few hours, according to Cal Fire.

A third blaze named the Hurst Fire had also broken out in Sylmar, in the San Fernando Valley northwest of Los Angeles, prompting evacuations of some nearby residents.

Firefighters are continuing to battle the ferocious wildfires in Los Angeles suburbs, which have devoured buildings and sparked panicked evacuations as hurricane-force winds fueled rapid blaze growth.

Owen is a dad of three. The actor is father to Ford, 14, with ex-girlfriend Jade Duell, Finn, 11, with one-time personal trainer Caroline Lindqvist and daughter Lyla with Varunie Vongsvirates, who he had dated.

Owen was seen in a rare public outing with his sons Ford and Finn taking in a soccer game in Los Angeles last year.

The Dallas-born actor and his sons watched the Los Angeles Football Club's game against the New York Red Bulls at BMO Stadium.

General Hospital' Star Cameron Mathison shared a shocking video of the still-flaming rubble of his former home in Pasadena, California which was destroyed in the Eaton wildfire

Actor James Woods also shared footage of a home two blocks from his property that was completely set alight

In June of 2017, he spoke about raising his sons on The Ellen DeGeneres Show: 

'Sometimes it feels like I'm already seeing how they're gonna be as teenagers, where they're gonna be ganging up on me.'

The star told Esquire in August of 2021 that he lives by both sons and everyone 'gets along' with one another, as he took on 'a single-dad schedule.'

Two months later, Vongsvirates told DailyMail.com that Owen had 'never met' his daughter or had any contact with her.

'He has never met her unfortunately,' Vongsvirates said in an October 11, 2021 interview.

Varunie and Owen casually dated for five years before splitting up. He underwent a paternity test in 2018 which confirmed he was the father.

She gave birth to their little girl on October 9, 2018 without Owen by her side.
