Kiwi filmmakers Taika Waititi (Te Whānau-ā-Apanui) and Chelsea Winstanley (Ngāti Ranginui, Ngai Te Rangi), who are now separated, are selling their LA property. According to celebrity watchers

It’s a massive sale but far shy of the original $100-million price tag when it first listed in 2017 (alongside a racy marketing campaign that involved a house tour filled with luxury cars and scantily clad women).
