Popular Hollywood director and producer JJ Abrams has the film and television industry in his blood. Both of his parents were TV producers and Abrams himself has made a name working on iconic franchises like Star Wars, Star Trek, and Mission: Impossible.
Now, the man who was a driving “Force” behind the Star Wars sequel trilogy — Episode VII – The Force Awakens (2015), Episode VIII – The Last Jedi (2017), and Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker (2019) — has listed his insanely beautiful Pacific Palisades home for $22 million!

Although the listing doesn’t specify which bedroom is showcased, if this space is any indication of how all of the bedrooms are decorated, there isn’t a bad option in the house.
The pool area at the California home for sale is also amazing, taking cues from some of the world’s finest resorts with lounge chairs, umbrellas, and impeccable landscaping.
Currently, it is not known if Abrams will ever return to the Star Wars franchise — sequel trilogy stars Daisy Ridley (Rey), John Boyega (Finn), and Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron) — have all publicly stated that they do not have immediate plans to reprise their roles in the Star Wars universe.
However, Abrams has a number of other projects in the works. Per IMDb, he is currently involved with an astounding 19 projects, including an untitled Star Trek sequel, presumably starring Chris Pine as Captain Kirk again, two Mission: Impossible movies, and a recently announced Quentin Tarantino Star Trek film.
Abrams’s Bad Robot studio is also involved in the upcoming HBO Max Justice League Dark series. Recently, there were also rumors that there is a Rise of Skywalker “Abrams cut”, similar to the Zack Snyder’s Justice League “Snyder cut.”
