Jolie’s eldest son, Maddox, 23, has embraced a role as the third assistant director on Jolie’s latest film, ‘Stitches.’
With prior experience as a trainee on his parents’ ‘By the Sea,’ a bit part in Pitt’s ‘World War Z,’ and a production assistant stint on Jolie’s Golden Globe-nominated ‘Maria,’ Maddox’s career trajectory is impressively intertwined with his parents.
An insider highlighted on this development, noting, “Angelina is thrilled to be working with him again, but what she’s really excited about is that he’s earning a serious paycheck. Maddox would give it all to her – but Angelina wants him to keep it and learn to budget and save.”
Meanwhile, Pax and Knox, aged 21 and 16 respectively, also joined their mother’s Maria team as assistant directors.
