Super stylish American actress and talented filmmaker Angelina Jolie was born on June 4, 1975, in Los Angeles, California. Her father is Jon Voight, who was an actor and Marcheline Bertrand is her mother. When she was a child, she often watched films with her mother and it was the reason that inspired her interest in acting, rather than her father’s successful career. She had played a bit part in Voight’s “Looking to Get Out” (1982) at age seven. When Jolie was eleven years old, she decided to act and enrolled at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute, where she was trained for two years and then appeared in several stage productions.
The early life of teenager Angelina Jolie is full of struggle. When attending Beverly Hills High School, she felt isolated among the children of some of the affluent families because her mother survived on a more modest income. She was teased by other students for being extremely thin and for wearing glasses and braces. Moreover, her early attempts at modeling were proven unsuccessful.
As a teenager, Jolie found it difficult to emotionally connect with other people, and as a result, she was self-harmed, she struggled with insomnia and an eating disorder and began experimenting with drugs. Depression surrounded her and she planned to commit suicide twice—at age 19 and again at 22 by hiring a hitman. After adopting her first child at the age of 24, Jolie found stability in her life.
Jolie decided to act professionally at the age of 16, but initially, it was difficult for her to pass auditions. She took part in several music videos, namely Antonello Venditti’s “Alta Marea” (1991), Lenny Kravitz’s “Stand by My Woman” (1991), The Lemonheads’ “It’s About Time” (1993), and Meat Loaf’s “Rock and Roll Dreams Come Through” published in 1993.
Jolie commenced her professional film career in 1993. But she has appeared in over thirty film productions since 1982. Her most successful films are Playing by Heart (1998), Gia (1998), Gone in 60 Seconds (2000), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001), Lara Croft: Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life (2003), Alexander (2004), Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004), Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005), Beowulf (2007), A Mighty Heart (2007), Kung Fu Panda (2008), Changeling (2008), Wanted (2008), The Tourist (2010), Salt (2010), Maleficent (2014), and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019).
