She rendezvoused with husband Brad Pitt who is off filming in London as she was spotted arriving at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday.But it seemed to be a short reunion for the family as Angelina Jolie and her children were spotted arriving at LAX Airport in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening.The 40-year-old star was hand-in-hand with Pax, 12, Zahara, 11 and nine-year-old Shiloh shortly after touching down at the international travel hub.Her 52-year-old husband has been busy filming the sequel for World War Z in the capital city of England.Angelina has been busy herself as she recently wrapped filming her upcoming Netflix movie, First They Killed My Father, in Cambodia.The Maleficent star looked as chic as ever as she sported a long black jacket over a clinging black midi dress and knee-high leather boots.She wore her signature raven-coloured tresses down flowing over her shoulder as she had natural, complimentary make-up on her face topped off with a swipe of shiny pink lip.Angelina accessorised the look with a pair of large, black aviator shades and a brown leather Louis Vuitton bag draped over her shoulders.Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Angelina has secretly added two large new tattoos to her collection - and now her entire back is covered in inkings by the same Thai tattoo master.Ajarn Noo Kanpai - the same guru who inked her left shoulder blade in 2003 and the tiger on her lower back in 2004 - carried out the work last month.He was flown from his base near Bangkok to Siem Reap in Cambodia where Angelina is directing First They Killed My Father to complete her 11-year series of inkings.
Angelina's husband Brad Pitt was also tattooed on his left side in the same session, and now has a Buddhist symbol inking on his stomach.The same ink was believed to have been used by Ajarn Noo for the work, symbolically binding husband and wife together.Buddhists believe the mystical tattoos have powers of strength and healing, with the one applied to her right shoulder designed to offer protection for mother-of-six Angelina's family.A source said: 'The tattoos are composed of grids with pyramids at the top, which are full of ancient Buddhist symbols and prayers. They help to give the wearer protection and health.'Angelina is a very spiritual person and has long believed her tattoos are more than just designs on her body – that they actually hold some meaning, power and influence over her.'

Ready to wrap! Angelina Jolie is in her element as she jokes with crew while finishing up work on her documentary in Cambodia .She may be a serious artist, but that doesn't mean the work environment has to be.And while wrapping up the filming of her latest movie in Cambodia the 40-year-old could be seen looking to be in good spirits as she joked with her cast and crew.The director seems to have formed a tight-knit bond with her crew after three months of filming her Khmer Rouge epic First They Killed My Father.The documentary - adapted from Cambodian author and human rights activist Loung Ung’s 2000 memoir - is moving into its final stages. Angelina, who sported a fitted, white, spaghetti strap dress with a flowing skirt, proudly displayed her extensive new back tattoos as she shared jokes and issued orders for filming a refugee camp scene at the foot of the Kulen Mountain in the Siem Reap province.The Oscar winner also shielded herself from the sun with a tan, wide-brimmed hat, as she could be seen gesturing while giving orders to the crew.And the star was later spotted donning a flowing, strapless white sundress as she enjoyed a day poolside as the movie came closer to wrapping.The movie features a largely Cambodian cast and crew, but Angelina has also hired a team of trusted British and American movie-makers as producers, camera operators, and in other high up positions, to ensure the movie is completed to the highest standard.'Angelina takes her movie-making very seriously,' an on-set insider said, adding: 'Some of it has been tough, make no mistake.' 'Cambodia is a third world country, and Angelina's been dealing with a largely Khmer cast and crew - things don't run as smoothly as on a huge Hollywood production.' 'There was a hiccup around December where some of the crew weren't working out and were subsequently sent home, but they were replaced and the team have been getting on incredibly well since,' the source added.
Angelina has also been getting some extra help on set in the form of her sons Maddox, 14, and Pax, 12, who have been on-hand during the shoot to help out with various production tasks, while Pax has also been taking photos to document the movie-making process. Angelina has also been immersing herself in the local Buddhist culture while in Cambodia, visiting temples and accompanying her six children – who also include Zahara, 11, Shiloh, nine, and seven-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne – as they learn about the culture and customs of their new country.In another show of her belief in the mysticism of South East Asia, Angelina's latest artworks, by her regular tattoo artist Ajarn Noo Kampai, whom she flew in from Bangkok to tattoo her, were on display at the set.Angelina has had a number of ancient Buddhist symbols and mantras on her back in a five-row form and a pyramid, symbols to give her power and help protect her family, according to experts able to decipher their meaning. First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers is set to debut on streaming service Netflix later in 2016.

In the Supergirl episode “Solitude,” Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) must battle Indigo, a sexy living supercomputer with a sense of humor. Indigo is portrayed by Laura Vandervoort who played Kara/Supergirl on Smallville. Vandervoort said she met Supergirl producer Andrew Kreisberg at the Saturn Awards show last year and he asked if she would be interested in a part. (The answer was yes!).When Vandervoort was given the part of Indigo, Kreisberg told her they wanted Indigo to have a sense of humor. Vandervoort explained: “Almost like Angelina Jolie in Beowulf was his example on how to play her.” Vandervoort said she was also inspired by her stunt girl: “A lot of the character came from watching my stunt girl the first day and watching her move and how they’d chosen to have Indigo fight and that’s how I made her move and how I want her to be.” Regarding her costume, Vandervoort admits, “It’s the strangest look I’ve had as an actor.” Supergirl airs Mondays at 8pm on CBS.
