Angelina Jolie: ‘I love martial arts’ Jun

No Comments | Posted by vanessa | Post Categories: Latest News

Oscar winner Angelina Jolie stays in top shape by being active. And the 34-year-old stunner encourages her six young children to be active as well.

“I love martial arts,” Angelina told OK! “They are ideal for children because they teach them discipline and perseverance. My son [Maddox, 7] is already starting to go to class.”

Jolie, who bounced back into peak condition following the birth of twins Knox and Vivienne in July 2008, underwent grueling martial arts training for her blockbuster action thrillers, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) and its sequel, Lara Croft: The Cradle of Life (2003).

Since then, Angelina—widely considered one of the most beautiful women in the world—has embraced a fit and healthy lifestyle. Physical exercise is ideal, it’s much better than sitting in front of the TV or the computer screen, she says.

So when she does sit down to see a movie, what does Angie like to watch? “I like all of Bruce Lee’s films; he was the best,” she notes. “I also like Jackie Chan a lot—my kids are Jackie Chan fans.”

The super-svelte Angelina also likes to use her son’s video games to work out. Angelina discovered the program Let’s Pilates! when Maddox was showing his siblings how to use the Nintendo Wii console. Once Angie figured out how to use the program, she was hooked.

Meanwhile, Jolie has been on location in New York City and in Washington, D.C. since February, shooting scenes for the espionage thriller Salt, in which she plays Evelyn A. Salt, a rogue CIA agent who tries to clear her name after being accused of being a Russian sleeper spy.

When not filming, Jolie spends time with her partner Brad Pitt, 45, and their six kids and promotes humanitarian causes. On June 19, Angelina made international headlines when she and Brad donated $1 million to a U.N. refugee agency to help Pakistanis displaced by fighting between troops and Taliban militants. Over the past decade, Jolie has donated millions of dollars to charity and has traveled extensively on humanitarian missions as a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador.

Meanwhile, the Oscar winner has reportedly landed another film franchise, this time playing Dr. Kay Scarpetta, a crime-solving medical examiner in novelist Patricia Cornwell’s bestselling book series.

In the novels, Kay Scarpetta is a beautiful but tough-as-nails forensic examiner with a messy love life and a penchant for opera and Italian cooking. There are 16 Scarpetta novels, clearing the way for a possible mega-franchise like the Jason Bourne spy series which made a global box-office sensation of star Matt Damon, 38.

Angelina has herself enjoyed incredible box office success in action movies such as the Lara Croft films (2001 & 2003), Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) and Wanted (2008). Combined, Jolie’s movies have grossed over $1.2 billion worldwide. If everything works out, Scarpetta will be Angelina’s second franchise, after the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider series.

Salt opens in 2010.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have donated $1 million to the U.N. refugee agency providing aid to hundreds of thousands uprooted by violence in Pakistan.

The U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees says it is grateful for the donation from the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. It said Thursday the money will go to alleviating suffering caused by the “most challenging humanitarian crisis of the past decade.”

UNHCR says over 2 million Pakistanis have been driven from their homes this year by fighting between government troops and Taliban militants in the northwest of the country.

Jolie has visited refugees in Pakistan on three missions since becoming goodwill ambassador for the agency in 2001. The Oscar-winning actress took Pitt with her on one such visit in 2005.

Angelina Jolie will be joining CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360″ on World Refugee Day on June 18, Access Hollywood has learned.

The humanitarian star has been filming the spy drama “Salt” on location in New York City and Washington, D.C., but she hasn’t forgotten about her causes. Jolie wrote an article for Time magazine earlier this month expressing outrage over the conflict in Darfur.

“Darfur has almost disappeared from the news, and experts now call it a ‘low-intensity’ conflict. But the intensity of the crisis has not lessened for those who are struggling to survive,” she wrote at the time, imploring the United Nations Security Council to move forward on the issue.

The actress was named a UN Goodwill Ambassador in 2001, working under the UN’s High Commissioner for Refugees.

ANGELINA JOLIE was forced to fight for her dream dresses from designer MALCOLM HARRIS – the fashionista hung up on the actress twice because he was convinced the caller was a prankster.
The Hollywood beauty recently phoned Harris to order three outfits from his One Dress line to wear to an array of upcoming World Refugee Day events on Saturday (20Jun09) – but she was left red-faced when he ignored her repeated requests.
Jolie finally managed to convince the designer she was the real deal – and Harris is embarrassed by the mishap.
He tells the New York Post’s gossip column Page Six, “I was so flattered.”

‘Wanted 2’ Director Says Angelina Jolie’s Character Will Return Jun

How do you make a sequel to a movie in which almost every main character winds up dead? According to one report from a Russian news outlet, “Wanted” director Timur Bekmabetov plans to answer that very question by bringing back Angelina Jolie and possibly others in the next installment.

Bekmabetov told RIA Novosti, a Russian news site, that he’s already begun preparations for “Wanted 2,” a sequel to the 2008 actioneer based on Mark Millar and J.G. Jones’ comic book. According to the site, the director promised the return of Jolie, despite her character’s send-off in the first movie.

Other characters could potentially return as well, said the director, including Kostya Khabenskiy’s role as the Exterminator.

“We’ll think about it,” Bekmabetov said, courtesy of Russia-IC’s translation. “We might possibly resurrect him as well.”

There are still others who’d love a shot at returning to the Evan Spiliotopoulos-penned sequel — specifically the Gunsmith himself, as played by “Terminator Salvation” and one-time “Green Lantern” contender Common.

Other characters are probably less likely to return. Morgan Freeman was the first film’s secret villain, having initially served a mentor role to protagonist Wesley Gibson. In the sequel, it’s expected that Terence Stamp would have a larger part to play, potentially fulfilling a similar advisory capacity — or even boasting Freeman’s own duplicitous nature.

Whatever the case may be, our answers on the “Wanted 2″ front should be coming soon, as Bekmabetov said that the film will begin preparations in July.

“In July, we will start preparation for the film. I think in late autumn or winter, shooting will be performed,” said the director. “The shooting will take place in America, India and Russia.”
