And we were vampires and we lived in a dungeon.'Angelina moved on with Brad Pitt, whom she met and fell in love with on the set of Mr. And Mrs. Smith in 2004.They married 19 years later in August 2014 and The Maleficent: Mistress Of Evil star filed for divorce in September 2016.The exes share Maddox, 18, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 11.Meanwhile, Billy Bob secretly tied the knot with Connie Angland in October 2014.

The 44-year-old actress-and-director - who has Maddox, 18, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 11, with former husband Brad Pitt - thinks the next generation need to be "prepared" to tackle global issues but she doesn't just want to educate her own children about it.Asked about values she teaches her children, Angelina told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "Kindness - to others and themselves. It's important to be humble - know the freedoms you have and what you've been blessed with and make sure you help others. And always remember your place - we're all human and very flawed. We're tiny pieces in a much bigger world."As they grow up, I find my children are strong individuals but still open-minded. I try to lead by example and be kind and gracious, as my mother was - and loving and tolerant. But when there's a fight that needs to be had, get in there. We need to prepare the next generation because there's so much happening in the world - they're up against it."I'm working on a programme for children with the BBC. We're counting on our children so we must give them the right knowledge and support."We've made a lot of advances and mistakes - we need to be honest and educate them about the world.And Angelina is also working on a factual book for children about their rights.She added: "I'm also working on a book about kids' rights with Amnesty. It's written for children."Often we can encourage children to know their rights and speak out, but in parts of the world they're hurt or jailed for doing so."We have to be realistic and give children the right tools and information."

How Angelina Jolie Has Been Training for Marvel's Eternals

Marvel’s Eternals has a lot of fans curious since they are relatively obscure characters and were actually killed in the comics not too long ago, likely to make room for a relaunch. The movie will have a big cast, including Hollywood A-lister Angeline Jolie, who will be playing Thena. Since this is a Marvel movie, Jolie is getting in shape since she knows that there will be a need for her to get physical, even with stunt doubles.Funnily enough, talking with OK! Magazine (via Metro), Jolie revealed that she has attended some of her children’s physical activity classes to get in shape. No joke, the Maleficent star stated that she has gone to her son’s weapon classes and daughter’s karate lessons, even taking part in them. This is interesting, to say the least, though she has probably been going to the gym as well. “My son Knox does some weapons classes and Viv does karate so I’ve been jumping into all their classes. I’m the mum that keeps showing up. It’s been fun and going to the gym together is really good.” Some of us might find this cute, cringe-inducing, or simply misleading, but it seems that Jolie is excited to join the MCU. Admittedly, Thena is far from the most popular character in Marvel history but you can bet that Jolie will make her memorable, especially with a little CGI magic. Personally, I’m excited to see what she brings to the table. Jolie has always been a great actress, despite what the Maleficent movies have shown, and she adds a lot of presence to this relatively unknown Marvel movie. Then again, Marvel Studios is huge now and they can make any comic book movie now.Marvel’s Eternals will be coming out next year, on November 6, 2020.
