Michael De Luca, the famous movie producer who has films like "Moneyball" and "Captain Phillips" to his credit, is reportedly selling a residence in Brentwood, Los Angeles, for $5.19 million.
The Real Estalker (via Variety) broke news of the listing noting that Luca and his wife have already decamped to a larger, shiny new, six bedroom- seven and a half bathroom residence, that they purchased quietly in May this year. Apparently, the couple shelled out $5.81 million for their new residence.
Property records show that Luca purchased the house in 2008 for $4.5 million. The home hit the market June 16.
The records also reveal that the residence is a 4,751-square-foot, single-family house comprised of five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms.
The cozy residence sports dark hardwood flooring, French doors and windows and drywall ceilings.
The front doors open through a porch into the large living area that has a stone fireplace. A family room, a separate dining area, a modern kitchen and a den are some of its other features. The master suite has a huge dressing room. There is a laundry as well.
Outside, the house has a garden and a pool. There is a two-car, covered parking space as well.
The listing describes the home as:
"Stunning, gated 2-story traditional home, dripping with beautiful architectural integrity, charming English garden landscaping, tall privacy hedges, a fountain accented pool and inviting indoor/outdoor patio."
"This 5 bedroom, 6 bathroom home offers sophisticated style with charm and warmth in the heart of Brentwood. It's a winner, show cold!" it adds.

Last year, Luca was chosen to be the president of Columbia Pictures but took up the position only after he finished production on Universal Pictures' "Fifty Shades of Grey" and "Dracula Untold."
More recently, the studio released the trailer of "Dracula Untold," a fable of how a man went on to become the Dracula. Check it out here.
Luca was fond of movies right from his childhood. In a candid interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he says:
"The movies were so healing for me because I had such an isolated, lonely childhood. Going to the movies and having the lights go down, you disappear. If you have esteem issues, suddenly you're in a void where nobody can see you. You are just by yourself in that darkness, and your loneliness is cured. It was great to escape from a place where I felt like an alien."
