Jolie visited the Venice Film Festival in 2004 with the animated film Shark Tale. She attended the international premiere with her three-year-old son, Maddox.
She also appeared on the red carpet at the festival in 2007 to support Pitt's film 'The Assassination of Jessie James' by the Coward Robert Ford.
The next film directed by Jolie, Without Blood, which stars Salma Hayek Pinault, will premiere at the upcoming Toronto International Film Festival. Pitt's sports drama F1 is in theaters on June 27, 2025.
Jolie and Pitt appeared together in the 2005 film Mr. and Mrs. Smith, as well as the 2015 film By the Sea, which Jolie also wrote and directed.
She filed for divorce from Pitt in 2016 and they were declared legally single in 2019. They share six kids, the youngest of whom, twins Vivienne and Knox, are now 16 years old, reported People.
