CEBU, Philippines - Jolie – the daughter of Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight – will be hoping to make it third time lucky: she was previously married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton.
Her acting career has seen her play everything from a fairytale villain (“Maleficent”) to a sexy video game heroine (“Lara Croft: Tomb Raider”) to the widow of assassinated American journalist Daniel Pearl (“A Mighty Heart”).
The actress revealed last year that she had a double mastectomy to reduce her high risk of breast cancer, garnering widespread support and praise.
Pitt got his big break more than 20 years ago with a much-talked-about shirtless eye-candy role in the hit movie “Thelma and Louise” as the two-bit thief who seduces Geena Davis.
He has received three Oscar nominations: in 1996 for “Twelve Monkeys,” in 2009 for “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” and in 2012 for “Moneyball.”
This year, Pitt took home an Academy Award as one of the producers of best picture for “12 Years a Slave.”
Pitt was previously married to “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston – a Hollywood super-pairing that fizzled out at about the same time as Pitt met Jolie.
The supercouple are now working on “By the Sea,” their first on-screen appearance together since “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.” The movie is to be filmed in Malta.
Their children are Maddox, 13; Pax, 11; Zahara, 9; Shiloh, 8; and six-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. Maddox, Pax and Zahara are adopted. (FREEMAN)
