In the photos, Jolie wore a giraffe onesie, an ensemble which she reportedly finished off with a pair of black high heels. She stood beside Ridloff in the picture. Her co-star wrote donned an outfit in the style of Midsommar, one of the most popular films of the year starring Florence Pugh. On top of the picture Ridloff posted of Jolie, she also posted a photo with Brian Tyree Henry who matched her costume with one of his own. The Sound of Metal actor captioned the photo, 'No dressing up this year, so here are some old pics from the Halloween party when @briantyreehenry and I reigned supreme for Best Costume (guess who we were) and @angelinajolie dressed up as a giraffe…Happy Halloween.'Chan posted both of the same photos as Ridloff but added one more, a picture of herself dressed as Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction in aw white-button down shirt with several of the buttons near the top undone and a fake syringe in her chest.She stood next to Richard Madden who wore a black suit with skeletal makeup on her face and a bony-handed glove. She captioned her set of photos with a simple emoji of a ghost followed by '#tb.' Kumail Nanjiani explained that he couldn't make it to the party because he chose spending time with his wife over spending time with his co-stars. 'I did get an invite but I actually didn't go because we were shooting on location and I finished a couple of days before them, and [my wife] Emily [V. Gordon] was back in London so I decided to fly back and be with her instead of going to this amazing costume party,' the actor said. The Eternals premiered earlier this month, and it will open up for a wide release on November 5. The film has experienced some early poor reviews. It has a score of 60% on Rotten Tomatoes from critics which currently makes it the lowest rated Marvel movie on the review aggregator.

'I'm not sure what that says about me': Angelina Jolie says her six children think she's just like her warrior character Thena in The Eternals

Angelina Jolie stars as Thena - the leader of an Earth-based race of immortal beings with superhuman powers - in the new Marvel movie Eternals. And on Thursday, the 46-year-old actress revealed that her six children see a lot of similarities between Thena and their movie star mom. 'They said they liked her because she felt like me,' Angelina told PEOPLE with a laugh.She continued, 'Now, they haven't seen many of my films, but I thought that was really interesting. But then thinking of all the different things of her I'm not sure what that says about how my children see me.' The Academy Award winner shares Maddox, 20, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 15 and 13-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, with her ex-husband Brad Pitt, 57. In the film, the A-lister's character, whose powers include superhuman strength and speed, is battling the Eternals' version of dementia known as Mahd Wy'Ry.In an interview with Screen Rant, Marvel Studios VP of Production & Development Nate Moore elaborated on the struggles that Angelina's character faces in the film. He said, 'She has a tragic story in our film in that she comes down with something called Mahd Wy'ry. If you guys are fans of comics Mahd Wy'ry is something that can beset an Eternal.'It's a version of dementia. Because of the amount of memories they have, they become unstuck in their own mind, so she starts to forget exactly when she is, so through the course of the movie, Gilgamesh (Don Lee) becomes her protector.And when we find them in the modern day, they're living off the grid in a cabin in Australia because she's too dangerous to have around humans, so it's a fun arc for Angelina to play.' Meanwhile, the film's director Chloe Zhao told People, 'Angie is the reason why Thena exists. It was really important for Angie to bring femininity to Thena's character. 'She talked a lot about creating a woman who was graceful, feminine and strong at the same time. A woman strong enough not to be afraid to lean on the shoulder of a strong man.' Angelina told People that being asked to portray a superhero at the age of 45 'actually meant a great deal to me. I didn't think I'd pick up a weapon again. I didn't think I'd be in fight scenes to this extent again. And I certainly never thought I'd be in Marvel universe as a great fighter.'However, she went on to explain, 'That's not why I love to play Thena.' The Salt star said, 'I'm very interested in the other side of her that is struggling.'Chloe said, 'It was so fortunate that Angie came in and was very excited to work the way I've been working — to find the human part in the actor and actresses and what they really go through in their personal life and create a space for them to express that. 'And Angie has lived a life. And for her to be willing to be vulnerable enough to allow the camera into her inner struggle and to give that to the character of Thena so the audiences can relate to her is a brave and giving thing for an actor to do.' The Oscar winner said that Angelina's past experience as a director enabled her to bring a greater understanding to the set.'When you shoot a film like this, you're asking 700 people to wait from 12 o'clock to 5:30 p.m. so you can get your scene with two takes,' she said. 'You require an understanding from the cast. 'And someone like Angie, who's been a director and a producer, who traveled far into the middle of nowhere to make her films, she looked around and she said, "Oh yeah, we wait. I know what she's doing." She understands the bigger picture. That was crucial on this film.' Angelina recently discussed parenting, saying that she suffers from mom guilt and can be 'pretty tough' on herself when it comes to how she raises her six children. While making a rare comment about her family, she admitted to regularly questioning her parenting decisions as a single mother since her split from ex-husband Pitt back in September 2016.'I'm not a perfect parent by any means,' the Maleficent star told People. 'Every day I feel like I'm more aware of everything I don't do right.'She continued: 'I'm pretty tough on myself, because I feel often, 'Am I doing the right thing? Did I says the right thing?'Despite doubting herself from time to time, Jolie gushed: 'My children's kindness has been very healing to me.' Speaking of her tribe, the Golden Globe winner called them all 'pretty great people.''Because there's so many of them, I think they've had a very significant effect on each other. It's not like I'm the head of anything,' she explained. Jolie added: 'I'm very honest with my kids. And I'm very human with my kids.' The Know Your Rights and Claim author also noted she is 'curious about all the different aspects of who they are' and is passionate about helping them develop 'all the different aspects of who they are.''I have six very individual human beings in my home. I am so excited about all the different stages and feelings and curiosities that they go through,' Jolie told the outlet. As a mother, she feels it is her job to 'help them figure out who they are' but says that's impossible if you don't 'don't enthusiastically develop with them.'

She stars as Thena - leader of the Earth-based Eternals - in the latest Marvel movie.Yet Angelina Jolie has now revealed she took a 'leap of faith' by joining the Cinematic Universe because she wasn't allowed to read the film's script before signing up for the film, which premiere in London on Wednesday evening.Speaking on Thursday's Lorraine alongside her co-star Lauren Ridloff, Angelina, 46, revealed that actors are never allowed to read the script of a Marvel film before agreeing to be cast in the part - likely due to the top secret nature of the franchise. She told host Lorraine Kelly: 'It was a great deal of fun but I did it because The Eternal family would be diverse and inclusive. When you accept a marvel movie you don't see the script so you have to take a leap of faith.'We look and feel different than a superhero group but my character struggles with mental health. We are the most human. We represent the world we live in, we're a global family.' After starring in the film - which follows a race of immortal beings with superhuman powers who have secretly lived on Earth for thousands of years - Angelina also revealed she has been asked to direct a Marvel project.'I was asked if I would consider directing a Marvel movie and I said yes but I don't know if I'd be very good at it. It brings a smile to my face though.' The mother of six went on to discuss how she doesn't think the entertainment business should be considered 'real life' She said: 'I grew up around this business and I don't think it is real life. It shouldn't be taken too seriously. A lot of families are having conversations about sustainability so we like to upcycle and recycle what we already have.' Meanwhile, Lauren, 43, spoke about how it was long 'overdue' to have a team of superheros who are more relatable as people. She said: 'I was so thrilled to have this opportunity to play Makari. It was so overdue and timely to make superheroes seem more like people and that brings the idea of what a superhero is. With pride I can play Makari.'Lauren, who is deaf, said that filming didn't come without its hurdles as she couldn't hear the directors instructions - however Angelina offered her a solution. She said: 'I knew that there would be a lot of problem solving and opportunities on set and sometimes I didn't know when to turn because I couldn't hear the director shout, 'Action.' 'Angelina said to use a laser pen and now I incorporate this into my other work.'Lauren, who has two sons who are also deaf, went on to say that she is glad they will now have a relatable superhero growing up. She said: 'My boys were a tough audience so they weren't impressed at first until I brought home lego figures. 'Theyre both deaf so im so glad they're going to have a deaf superhero growing up.'Eternals is a 2021 Marvel film based on the fictional race of humanoids of the same name which appears in the American comic books.The film sees the Eternals, an immortal alien race, come out of hiding for thousands of years to protect Earth from their evil counterparts, the Deviants.The movie, which premiered in Los Angeles earlier this month, also stars Gemma Chan as the character Sersi.
