The three-time Oscar winner’s disheveled appearance comes after multiple reports suggested the star’s pals were concerned he would die alone, in a similar manner to his former next door neighbor and fellow screen legend Marlon Brando.
Nicholson, 85, is arguably La La Land’s most famous bachelor. He was married for four years prior to making it in Hollywood. His most famous romance with Angelica Houston ended nearly 25 years ago.
The Shining star was last seen in October 2021 alongside his doppelganger son, Ray, sitting courtside watching his beloved LA Lakers. Ray, 31, is one of the few people that Nicholson keeps in contact with, according to reports.
On Thursday, Nicholson was pictured enjoying the fresh air overlooking Franklin Canyon Reservoir. He wore a loose-fitting pale orange shirt and baggy sweatpants as he leaned up against a balcony railing on the crisp morning outing.

Nicholson’s appearance comes months after multiple reports suggested The Shining star has become a recluse Nicholson took turns sitting and standing while enjoying the Los Angeles morning. In video exclusively obtained by DailyMail.com, birds could be heard chirping while he tapped on the balcony railings.
At one point, the One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest star keenly observed a helicopter flying overhead.
He’s made it clear his home is his castle. But people just wish he’d come out of the house and pop up to tell them how — or at least reassure folks he’s OK,’ an unnamed friend told Radar Online in January.
‘Jack’s in touch with certain relatives — especially Ray, his protégé, who he’s so proud of — but his socializing days are long gone,’ they added. His last on-screen appearance came in 2010’s little known How Do You Know, starring alongside Owen Wilson and Reese Witherspoon.
The New Jersey-native has dodged rumors for years that he’s retired from acting as he is battling dementia and is unable to remember his lines.
In January, his unnamed friend told Radar that while Nicholson was in good shape physically, ‘his mind is gone.’

Shortly after those reports emerged, former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly said during an episode of his No Spin News broadcast that reports that Nicholson’s mental health had diminished were ‘bull.’
I visited Jack Nicholson a few months ago. I had a long conversation with him and he follows the No Spin News very closely and had all kinds of intelligent questions for me,’ O’Reilly said.
‘I have been friends with him for decades. He is 85, okay? But he is more intellectually nimble than the president of the United States,’ the former Inside Edition host continued.’ Despite his confirmed bachelor status, Nicholson has fathered six children by five different women.
Nicholson has been criticized for never acknowledging his paternity of his alleged daughter Tessa Gourin, who was born out of his brief affair with waitress Jeanine Gourin.

In February, Tessa, an aspiring actress, published an essay in Newsweek titled ‘I’m Jack Nicholson’s Daughter – I Wish People Could Call Me a Nepo Baby.’
‘Having grown up without my father, I’ve sat on the sidelines and watched in frustration as other celebrity children have seamlessly secured roles or been signed to huge agencies,’ she wrote. ‘More recently, I have grown even more frustrated at what I think is a missed opportunity for these so-called “nepo babies” to own their position and embrace it instead of complaining about it,’ Tessa continued. For nearly four decades, Jack believed that his mom was his sibling, until 1974, when Time magazine uncovered the truth and told him about its findings. While speaking to Patrick McGilligan for his biography, entitled Jack’s Life, the Shining star called it ‘the most f**ked thing he had ever heard.’ He also said the discovery was ‘dramatic’, but added that it ‘wasn’t’ something he’d ‘call traumatizing.’
The actor later told Rolling Stone, when asked about the shock revelation: ‘I was very impressed by their ability to keep the secret, if nothing else. It’s done great things for me.’
Man transforms recycled containers into a modern, eco-friendly 2-bedroom home with luxury amenities
Living in a sustainable, modern home constructed from recycled containers is an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
Reusing shipping containers not only lessens the impact on the environment but also opens up new possibilities for home design creativity and innovation.
These days, container homes are widespread, but very few are regarded as “luxury.”
A man by the name of Nick constructed an opulent, environmentally friendly house out of marine containers on a plot of land in Index, Washington.
The roughly six-acre plot was bought by Nick and his spouse in 2010.
The original plan was to locate a summertime hideaway where families could get together and enjoy the outdoors for river activities and skiing.
Currently, Nick’s family has six tiny cabins on the land, which they began renting out on Airbnb in 2017.
Nick began work on the environmentally friendly Sea Container Cabin project after finishing the Tree House.
The recycled containers that were utilized were produced in 2007. It has minor dings from when it was used to move cargo.
Nonetheless, Nick thinks that his friends, family, and short-term renters will find it valuable due to its originality and distinction.
There are two 40-foot High Cube containers in the green house.
They were divided in half to create a 40-foot cantilever with around 12 feet on each side and two 20-foot containers on the lower level.
This cantilever, which creates a covered entry, is made possible by the repurposed containers’ strength.
The front locking mechanisms have welded handles for aesthetic appeal, emulating a conventional shipping container.
Nick decided to save the site’s roots by using a segmented foundation in order to protect the trees.
To avoid moisture issues and condensation, they employed spray foam insulation with closed cells.
The frames for the doors and windows were welded around the pre-cut containers.
An unusual rooftop hot tub that heats with gas and solar panels is a distinctive outside feature.
From the shipping of the containers in September to the first visitors being welcomed in March, the full building procedure took about six months.
Nick paid $12,000 for three recycling containers, for a grand total of almost $250,000.
When entering the green house, one is struck by how much it looks like a ski hut, complete with vintage skis thrown in for good measure.
The dining space, living room, and kitchen are all part of the open floor design.
A modern touch is added by an electric fireplace along with inventive lighting options that use LED strips concealed in channels.
The kitchen has recycled Paper Stone countertops and basalt tiles with a Lava Rock theme, all done in dark hues.
A convection microwave oven and a two-burner cooktop make up for the lack of a conventional oven and dishwasher.
As you wash dishes in the kitchen, you can enjoy the breathtaking view of a 110-year-old fir tree.
A mini-split system provides both heating and cooling for the container home.
A powder room with a floor-to-ceiling window, Paper Stone countertops, and a spa toilet are located downstairs.
There is a fire pit area, barbeque area, and covered porch in the backyard.
The unique staircase with LED lights on each step is a noteworthy feature. Everett Steel provided the metal components, which combined to create a robust yet sophisticated design.
There are two bedrooms upstairs, each with a basin for a toothbrush, dimmable mirrors, and environmentally friendly cork flooring.
A short queen bed and a skylight with a view of the woodland are features of the guest bedroom.
The slightly longer master bedroom in the eco-friendly house has the same comfortable bed and a skylight.
The bathroom, which has lava rock floors, a steam shower, and a distinctive Basalt strip, is shared by both bedrooms.
You can turn on the steam for a few minutes before getting in to thoroughly experience the hot tub and steam shower.
Situated 30 minutes from Steven’s Pass, this is a true ski chalet that offers the ideal haven after a tiring day of skiing.
