Angelina Jolie does not do social media; she has never had an Instagram, Twitter or Snapchat account.But that all changed on Tuesday when the Oscar-winning actress was seen smiling and flashing a peace sign behind co-star Elle Fanning on the London set of her new film, Maleficent 2.This comes just six days before the mother-of-six is set to celebrate her 43rd birthday.Jolie was covered up in a white plush robe and already had her Maleficent horns on with heavy makeup that included a pale face, filled in eyebrows and deep ruby red lipstick.The Salt star had long nails and several rings on as well as a pair of very think black sunglasses.Elle was in a cream silk blouse and mirrored sunglasses with her flaxen locks in a Swedish braid with yellow flowers tucked in.The caption read, 'It's bring your mom to work day on the #Maleficent2 set.' At age 20, the 42-year-old Jolie could be her mother. But the star was likely referring to how Angelina's character is like a mom to Elle's character in the movie.Fanning also shared a photo where she was looking into the camera with Jolie's horns behind her.The young star cleverly captioned that one, 'Photobomb.'In both shots the ladies were in a parking lot with their large movie trailers behind them. Elle portrays Princess Aurora and Angelina is Maleficent. Maleficent 2 shoots at the UK Pinewood studios and is scheduled to come out in 2019 or 2020.
The first Maleficent film - based on Disney's Sleeping Beauty - came out in 2014 and was a massive hit with $750M globally. Jolie told Entertainment Weekly: 'She was just my favorite as a little girl. I was terrified of her but I was really drawn to her/ I loved her … What’s interesting about her that I do relate to, and hat I think everyone relates to, is she’s not what you assume she is.'She also said she made the movie because she wanted to 'do something that my children could see,' she told Collider.The Tomb Raider star added, 'I thought it was, in fact, an important story to tell.'It looks like Angie and Elle are getting some company soon. On Tuesday Deadline reported that Robert Lindsay is joining the cast, and that Chiwetel Ejiofor is 'definitely attached.' Other stars in the film are Michelle Pfeiffer as Queen Ingrith, Ed Skrein and Harris Dickinson as Prince Phillip.Sam Riley as Diaval; Imelda Staunton as the pixie Knotgrass; Juno Temple as the pixie Thistlewit; and Lesley Manville as the pixie Flittle are coming back from the original Maleficent.Joachim Rønning is directing from a script by Linda Woolverton and Micah Fitzerman-Blue & Noah Harpster. Jolie is one of the producers with Joe Roth. The sequel picks up several years after Maleficent. 'Maleficent II continues to explore the complex relationship between the horned fairy and the soon to be Queen, as they form new alliances and face new adversaries in their struggle to protect the moors and the magical creatures that reside within,' Deadline reported.
