Angelina Jolie knows her Star Wars well.Like very well.So well that she even has a favorite character."I'm personally a Boba Fett fan," the Oscar winner says.Jolie revealed her admiration for the sci-fi bounty hunter when she interviewed her Unbroken star Domhnall Gleeson (he's in Episode VII) for the new issue of Interview magazine.When Gleeson remarked that Jolie could probably get a part in director J.J. Abrams' reboot of the iconic franchise if she really wanted one, she asked, "Can Boba Fett have a missus? Well, put in a good word for me, then."For the record, Gleeson admitted, "I was more an Indiana Jones kid than a Star Wars kid." During the twosome's chat, Gleeson turned the tables on Jolie and asked her a few questions."So were you an actor first then director?" Gleeson inquired."Yeah, well pretty much," Jolie said. "My mom always wanted me to be an actor. And I started going to theater and going on auditions young. I only realized about five years ago that I actually didn't want to be an actor." Not that she's ever really stopped acting. Not only did Jolie write and direct the upcoming By the Sea, but she and her hubby Brad Pitt star in the indie film together. It's the first time they've acted alongside each other since Mr. & Mrs. Smith.Jolie also insisted being a movie star was never important to her. "I'm a very private person," she said. "I don't go out much. I'm home with kids. I go to work. I don't really like being the focus of attention, which is why I like being behind the camera more."
