Icon Angelina Jolie is the epitome of a Hollywood A-lister. The actress has gone through an incredible transformation from a child actress in the ‘80s to the inspirational activist she is today. While she is devoted to her career and her humanitarian work, her first priority has always been her children.

The brunette beauty shares her six kids — Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox — with her ex-husband Brad Pitt. The two split in 2016 after 12 years together, but still connect to coparent their brood.

Now that Angelina is almost an empty nester, with only Vivienne and Knox still minors, she has more time to devote to work — including her upcoming Maria Callas biopic, Maria, for which she’s hoping to enter the Oscars race.

2024

Angelina is set to star as opera singer Maria Callas in the Maria biopic, which is set to be released in 2024. A source exclusively told In Touch on June 26, 2024, that the actress is “trying to lay low while staying connected to the movie business in Los Angeles” as she prepares for the film.

“It’s especially hard on Angie because she doesn’t have a mob of connected girlfriends who are helping her spread the word [about the upcoming film] and socially circulate herself,” the insider added. “She has her business team, and her kids, and that’s pretty much all she has to work with right now.”

Angelina is also not interested in dating right now. “Even getting into a new relationship seems like a bridge too far for her when the thing she is really concerned about is that everybody who might be interested in her film knows it exists and is ready to go buy a ticket for it,” the source continued. “Introducing any other variables into that equation would be a distraction. … She’s resigned to the fact that if she’s going to make it all the way to the Oscars this year, she’s basically going to be doing it alone.”
