Angelina Jolie on Acting, Family, and New Film

Angelina Jolie, in recent interviews, has shared insights into her acting career, revealing that her initial motivation to act stemmed from fulfilling her late mother's dreams. Marcheline Bertrand, Jolie's mother, had aspired to be an actress but chose to focus on motherhood after her divorce. Jolie expressed that her mother's encouragement and involvement made acting a shared mission, though her mother's passing made continuing the career more challenging. Now as a mother of six, Jolie emphasizes nurturing her children's individual passions without pressuring them into specific career paths, as they explore diverse interests from filmmaking to politics under her supportive guidance. Jolie's latest film, 'Maria', showcases her talents in a role that resonates with her personal experiences and legacy.
