Angelina Jolie says that Salt gave her an excuse to get out of bed after giving birth to her twins but she still felt a pang of guilt at times leaving her little ones at home.
The 35-year-old actress tells that after she gave birth to twins Knox and Vivienne, she needed to involve herself in an action flick like Salt as that drove away that feeling of ‘soft’ness.
Angelina said: “It was difficult to switch to being an action hero for a minute. But it was so nice to have an excuse to get out of bed and get back in action and not feel so soft with the pregnancy and all that comes with it after.”
But still at times, when she was shooting one or the other of those blood-chilling scenes, she felt that she did not belong there and should perhaps be at home feeding her newborns.
The mom in Angelina gushed- “I did have a moment where I found myself thinking, ‘I am somebody’s mom, I don’t belong here.’ I was on the freeway with somebody chasing me and two weeks before I was at home feeding the babies. I felt like, ‘Oh, they’ve got the wrong person.’ “
After all, it is no small task to handle a flourishing acting career and a bustling home made of six children and a superstar husband.
