Making the event a family affair, Jolie was joined on the red carpet by five of her six children, Maddox, 20, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 15, and 13-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox. The Tomb Raider alum was a sight to behold posing up a storm in an ultra-glamorous getup which ensured all eyes would be on her.She styled her brunette tresses down in glossy, loose sleek waves which dangled beside her beautifully done-up face.Enhancing her already gorgeous complexion, Angelina worked a slicked wing of eyeliner. She also added yet another gold touch with her wrist full of bracelets. In addition to displaying her eye for style, the strapless dress put Angelina's toned and tattooed arms on full display. Nearly all of Angelina's children were present for the special event, except for her 17-year-old son Pax. She shares her six children with her ex-husband Brad Pitt, whom she is in the midst of a tense divorce battle with. Last month, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed how Jolie was trying to sell her 50% stake in the vineyard that she shared with Pitt, held through her company, Nouvel. Her move to sell - which she did this month on October 6 - was branded 'vindictive and systematic obstruction' by the actor in bitter lawsuit.

There was no shortage of stars showing their support for the latest Marvel movie on the red carpet.While a number of A-listers graced the red carpet, one of the big stand-outs was Salma Hayek.The actress put on a jaw-dropping display with her plunging black dress which left little of her cleavage to the imagination .The Eternals star looked captivating with her hair styled sleek and straight and an elegant leg slit flashing a hint of more skin.In ELLE's 2021 Women In Hollywood issue, Jolie - who is an advocate for refugees - discusses her upcoming movie and praises The Eternal's director, Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao for her choice of casting.'A lot of times as an actress, you’re that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don’t often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' Jolie explained.'A lot of times as an actress, you’re that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don’t often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' Jolie explained.Praising her co-stars, Jolie continued: 'Gemma’s grace and elegance and the way she walks through the world. Salma’s motherhood and power, and Lauren’s connection and intelligence. Everybody came as themselves.'Maybe there’s something to that, that the characters weren’t as far off [from ourselves]. I think there’s a secret that we don’t know that our director knows, because if you look at her films, she casts a lot of real people as their roles and it shapes her films.'She reveals in the issue that when she was first contacted about the movie, she thought it was going to play a 'grandmother' type role.'I never thought I was going to be one of the Eternals. It doesn’t happen. It’s never happened to me like that before without a fight and like, ‘I can do this, please hire me!’ When she told me I was one of them, I was like, ‘Me, Mexican, Middle Eastern? Me, in my fifties? I’m going to be a superhero in a Marvel movie?’ Sometimes as a woman, as a woman of color and with the age, you feel so overlooked,' she said.Commending Zao for 'having balls', she championed the director for 'acknowledging' her within the industry.Ridloff, whose character Makkari is deaf like her and the first deaf superhero within the Marvel universe, reveals she jumped at the chance to 'show representation' on screen in a 'refreshing' way, while Chan praises Marvel for showing diversity on a global scale with its movies.

Angelina Jolie is set to star in new Marvel movie The Eternals and she's hailed the film's 'strong' female leading cast. The actress, 46, is joined by her co-stars Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan and Lauren Ridloff, as well as fellow movie stars Jodie Comer, Halle Berry, Gal Gadot, Jennifer Hudson and Rita Moreno in ELLE's 2021 Women in Hollywood issue to celebrate 'resilient' women.The nine women are being honoured for their creative and cultural contributions, with each star gracing the cover for a series of stunning shots for the publication's November issue. Another shot sees her sporting a tailored suit and sipping on a cup of tea while held up in the air by ropes at the edge of a pool. In the issue, Jolie - who is an advocate for refugees - discusses her upcoming movie and praises The Eternal's director, Oscar-winner Chloé Zao for her choice of casting. 'A lot of times as an actress, you’re that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don’t often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' Jolie explained. Praising her co-stars, Jolie continued: 'Gemma’s grace and elegance and the way she walks through the world. Salma’s motherhood and power, and Lauren’s connection and intelligence. Everybody came as themselves. 'Maybe there’s something to that, that the characters weren’t as far off [from ourselves]. I think there’s a secret that we don’t know that our director knows, because if you look at her films, she casts a lot of real people as their roles and it shapes her films.'The Eternals, set for release in cinemas in November, follows a race of immortal beings with superhuman powers who are secretly living on Earth. As well as starring Richard Madden, Kit Harington and Don Lee, the movie will see Jolie, Hayek, Chan and Ridloff appear as superheroes too, with Grown Ups star Hayek praising director Zao for breaking mainstream stereotypes on the big screen.She reveals in the issue that when she was first contacted about the movie, she thought it was going to play a 'grandmother' type role. 'I never thought I was going to be one of the Eternals. It doesn’t happen. It’s never happened to me like that before without a fight and like, ‘I can do this, please hire me!’ When she told me I was one of them, I was like, ‘Me, Mexican, Middle Eastern? Me, in my fifties? I’m going to be a superhero in a Marvel movie?’ Sometimes as a woman, as a woman of color and with the age, you feel so overlooked,' she said. Commending Zao for 'having balls', she championed the director for 'acknowledging' her within the industry. Ridloff, whose character Makkari is deaf like her and the first deaf superhero within the Marvel universe, reveals she jumped at the chance to 'show representation' on screen in a 'refreshing' way, while Chan praises Marvel for showing diversity on a global scale with its movies. As well as The Eternals cast, the Women in Hollywood issue also features Killing Eve star Jodie Comer, who gets a stellar review from her co-stars Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the accompanying interview for her portrayal of Marguerite in The Last Duel - a woman who accuses her husband's best friend of rape. Damon describes Comer as 'truly incredible', while noting her ability to better a filmmaker's writing with her take on a character, while Affleck gushes: 'I’m just proud to be a footnote in the Wikipedia page of her career.'She touches on how her 'confidence' has grown over the years within the film industry and the lessons she's learned as she poses for a series of playful snaps that see her kicking back in a bathtub in one shot and stepping out in front of a wind machine in a grand bedroom.
Also included in the issue is Justice League star Gadot who reflects on the mistreatment she endured on set of the 2017 release and her decision to speak out against it. Gadot accused director Joss Whedon, who has refused to comment on any allegations of mistreatment and abuse, of verbally abusing her on set and threatening her career.She questions whether she would have received the same treatment 'if I had been a man' and how she felt inclined to publicly address how she was treated in order to show people 'that it's not okay'. Berry, meanwhile, reflects on starting out her film career 'when Black women didn't really have a prominent place in the industry' and how her fight for her career has inspired the stories she wants to tell on the big screen. She is the only Black woman to have won the Academy Award for Best Actress to date. Hudson, who turns heads with her cover shot in a revealing leopard print swimsuit and colour block blazer, shares what it was like to land the iconic role of playing Aretha Franklin in the legendary singer's biopic and how Aretha had handpicked her to appear as her in the movie. While Moreno - the first Latina to win an Oscar (for Best Supporting Actress) - recalls her experience of being an activist throughout her movie career, as she calls out Hollywood for showing ageism towards older actors and actresses with typecasting. All nine women included in the stunning issue are praised for 'breaking barriers' and using their fame to actively campaign against important global issues and injustices. Jolie, who was appointed a 'Special Envoy' in 2012, works closely with the UN to support and campaign for the rights and protection of refugees, while her co-star Hayek is a prominent voice in the fight against domestic violence. Chan, meanwhile, launched the #StopESEAHate campaign here in the UK, earlier this year, following a rise in hate crimes against Asian communities. In May, she shared her concerns as she revealed on social media: 'Like many others, I worry for family members every time they leave the house or use public transport. My mum has worked for the NHS for most of her life - she and my dad have been followed and subjected to a number of verbal assaults since the beginning of the pandemic.'Whilst I’m relieved that these attacks didn’t become physical, unfortunately that is often not the case, such as the unprovoked attack on a 26 year old woman in Edinburgh last week which ended in her hospitalisation, the vicious beating of a university lecturer who was out jogging in Southampton and the physical assault of Singaporean student Jonathan Mok on Oxford Street, amongst many others. 'What’s even more concerning is that the recorded figures are likely an underestimation because many incidents go unreported, both to the police and in the media. There is an urgent need for increased awareness and support so I am proud to help launch this fund, which will provide grants to grassroots organisations supporting ESEA and broader communities.'

Angelina Jolie has once again been spotted with her ex-husband Jonny Lee Miller.The former couple were pictured enjoying a dinner date together on Monday night at Eoc restaurant in Beverly Hills, California. The Maleficent star - who is still battling through her bitter divorce saga with ex Brad Pitt - was dressed in a chic black coat and heels as she exited in Miller's car before the pair drove off together. Jolie, 46, and Miller, 48, were married from 1996 to 1999 after first meeting onset of their nineties thriller Hackers in 1995. While she is sure to set tongues wagging about a possible reunion between the duo - she has also been repeatedly dining out with music superstar The Weeknd this year.The pair were recently linked in June this year, when Jolie was spotted arriving at Miller's apartment in NYC, while holding an expensive bottle of wine. She was seen leaving a few hours later.It was claimed at that time, that Miller had met and bonded with her songs Pax, 17, and Knox, 12.The Oscar-winning beauty shares custody of both kids with ex-husband Pitt, in addition to Maddox, 19, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 15 and and Vivienne, 12.Last month, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed how Jolie was trying to sell her 50% stake in the vineyard that she shared with Pitt, held through her company, Nouvel.Her move to sell - which she did this month on October 6 - was branded 'vindictive and systematic obstruction' by the actor in bitter lawsuit.The estate - now valued at $164 million - is where the couple tied the knot in 2008.Angelina's move comes after the lawsuit obtained by DailyMail.com showed Miraval is owned by Quimicum, a company in which Pitt originally held a 60 per cent share through his company Mondo Bongo while Jolie held 40 per cent through Nouvel.Three years before he and Jolie split, Pitt transferred ten per cent of Mondo Bongo's shares to her company, Nouvel rendering them 50/50 stakeholders in Quimicum.The suit went on to allege that she was trying to sell her 50 per cent, circumvent Pitt's right of first refusal and profit from the 'incredible amount of work, time and money,' invested by Pitt and his business partners in growing the brand.The PDA pair kept lockets of each other's blood and bought grave plots before divorcing in 2003 after two years of wedded bliss.
The Come Away actress then fell for her Mr. & Mrs. Smith leading man Brad Pitt, who promptly divorced his wife Jennifer Aniston in 2005. 'Brangelina' went on to have a 12-year relationship - only two years of which they were married. A contentious court battle over their five underage children rages on.The bisexual beauty has also been rumored to have romanced Anton Schneider, Jenny Shimizu, Timothy Hutton, Misty Cooper, Colin Farrell, Val Kilmer, Taye Diggs, and Wyclef Jean.But according to the lawsuit, the ten per cent transfer is void as the shares were 'sold' for only 1 Euro and not a 'serious' amount as required by Luxembourg law.The Chateau and the 1,000-acre estate near Aix-en-Provence in which it sits was once the couple's getaway.It was there that the couple, who met on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2004 when Pitt was still married to Jennifer Anniston, decided to marry in an intimate ceremony in 2008.Jolie filed for divorce in August 2016 citing 'irreconcilable differences' and requesting primary custody of their six children. As of May, Pitt and Jolie share joint custody of their five underage children - Pax, 17; Zahara, 16; Shiloh, 15; as well as twins Vivienne and Knox, 13.However, Vietnamese-born Pax will become a legal adult when he turns 18 on November 29, and their eldest son Maddox is 20 and attending Yonsei University in Seoul. In April Angelina stated that she stepped back from directing to return to acting due to 'a change in her family situation'. After establishing herself as one of the most bankable box office stars in the early 2000s, she largely devoted the 2010s to directing, although she has now insisted that a continued pursuit of directing has become 'impossible'.The star made her directing debut in 2011's In the Land of Blood and Honey, followed by 2014's Unbroken, By the Sea in 2015 and First They Killed My Father in 2017.While she did not specifically detail what the 'change' was, Angelina has been engaged in a lengthy custody battle with ex-husband Brad. When asked about her shift towards acting in favor of directing, Angelina said the move was due to her family, but directing is still a passion for her.She candidly told Entertainment Weekly: 'I love directing, but I had a change in my family situation that's not made it possible for me to direct for a few years.'I needed to just do shorter jobs and be home more, so I kind of went back to doing a few acting jobs. That's really the truth of it.'
