Angelina Jolie Does Not Want Her Kids To Be Actors! Find Out Why She And Brad Pitt Said No
Angelina Jolie wants her apples to fall far, far away from the tree! The actress opened up about her children’s futures and revealed she does not want them to become actors like herself and Brad Pitt!
The 40-year-old appeared on the Today show to talk about working with four of her six children on Kung Fu Panda 3 and said they were young professionals!
Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 9, and Knox, 7, all did voice work for the movie along with Jack Black’s son. Maddox, 17, and Vivienne, 7, did not work on the film.
"It was so much fun. I think what was so sweet about it was that they took it very seriously," She said. "They came in and said, 'I don't know if I could do this. I'm not sure if I can do this.' And to talk them through it - it was simple little things - but they really took it seriously as a job and getting it right and not doing a bad job."
