Real Reason Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt's Children Don't Want To Be Actors

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt may have found success as actors, but it seems none of their children are eager to follow their footsteps.

In a 2016 interview with Vanity Fair, Jolie confirmed that not one of her six children -- Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 12, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 10 -- want to go into acting. According to the "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil" star, her children with Pitt prefer playing music and working behind the camera instead of aiming to star in blockbusters like their parents.

“None of my kids want to be actors,” Jolie told the outlet. “They are actually very interested in being musicians. I think they like the process of film from the outside. Mad is interested in editing. Pax loves music and deejaying.”

Her eldest, Maddox, already has two films in his resume after working behind the scenes for Jolie's movies, "First They Killed My Father" and "By the Sea." Both films were directed by the Oscar-winning actress, but the latter also saw her reunite onscreen with now-estranged husband Pitt.

On the other hand, Shiloh, Jolie's eldest biological child with Pitt, has been more interested in honing her skills in music rather than working in movie sets with her mom and dad. Earlier this year, the 12-year-old was spotted heading to a music lesson in Los Angeles while carrying a guitar.

Jolie has also been fully supportive of her children's interest in learning different languages. During a chat on BBC Radio 4’s "Woman’s Hour," the "Eternals" star revealed that her six kids have been focusing on a wide range of languages including Arabic, French, German and even sign language.

“I asked them what languages they wanted to learn and Shi is learning Khmai, which is a Cambodian language, Pax is focusing on Vietnamese, Mad has taken to German and Russian, Z is speaking French, Vivienne really wanted to learn Arabic, and Knox is learning sign language," the actress said.
