Her Oscar-winning fiancé may have just jetted Down Under to spend time with her and their six strong brood, but it's business as usual for Angelina Jolie on the set of her new film Unbroken. The star looked very much in control as she sat in the director’s chair of the World War II biopic on Thursday. The 38-year-old is currently filming on the Gold Cast in Queensland, where the mother-of-six was casually dressed in black pants and a black, thick-strapped singlet that displayed her slender arms. Her signature chocolate locks were pulled into a low ponytail and she kept her makeup natural and to a minimum. Jolie and her six children have been based in Australia since November last year, with 50-year-old Brad flying in and out as much as possible to spend time with the family. The doting father touched down in Sydney on Tuesday after his film 12 Years A Slave had a big win at the Producers Guild Awards in Beverly Hills at the weekend. His presence has likely taken some stress off of Angelina’s shoulders, as producing the film has by no means proven an easy feat. According to screenwriters Joel and Ethan Coen, the many war scenes and water and aerial shoots make the production process all the more problematic. Speaking to Entertainment Weekly last year, Angelina said of the difficulty of the shoot: 'On set, we started to joke and say, "Tomorrow will be easier," knowing full well that on this challenging shoot, there are no easy days,' 'Anytime it gets tough, we think of the real men who lived through this, and no one complains. In fact, we all just feel honored to be here.' The motion picture is based on a novel by Laura Hillenbrand that narrates the true life story of a World War II hero. Skins actor Jack O'Connell stars in the lead role as American Olympic runner Louis Zamperini, who was taken prisoner by the Japanese army during the second World War. The movie also stars Garrett Hedlund and 'About Time' actor Domhnall Gleeson. It is scheduled for release in December this year. Angelina and Brad have been making the most of Australia while there, spending time on the Gold Coast where they went ice-skating and visited the Currumbin Wildlife Park, and taking a cruise around Coomera River. They've also been enjoying time in Sydney, including a trip to the aquarium and to see The Lion King.
