Angelina Jolie doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving because of the holiday's history.
According to source via Fox News,"Jolie hates this holiday and wants no part in rewriting history like so many other Americans".
"To celebrate what the white settlers did to the native Indians, the domination of one culture over another, just isn't her style. She definitely doesn't want to teach her multi-cultural family how to celebrate a story of murder."
Angelina Jolie will act as a gangster in "Sunny". Sunny" follows a female gangster determined to protect her sons and herself from a violent drug lord. When a shocking event turns everything upside down, she has only hours to plan their ultimate escape.
Apart from acting, Jolie will also produce. The script is written by William Day Frank (Susie Searches, Fixation) and the movie will be directed by Eva Sørhaug.
Producer Mark Fasano of Nickel City Pictures said, “People are going to be shocked by what [Angelina] brings with this riveting character. This violent world that Eva and Angelina have crafted is grounded in survival and family led by a mother doing anything and everything within her power to protect her two boys.”
French film actress Garance Marillier talks about working with Angelina Jolie in Couture.
She tells South China Morning Post, "I grew up with Angelina’s movies, so meeting her on the first day of shooting was a bit intimidating,” Marillier says. “But she was so nice with me, and with all the team, so in the end it was a very natural thing."
Marillier acted as seamstress Christine in Couture and she tells her excitement when she was in the atelier. She shared, "It was crazy to be in the atelier and see how it works. I had the chance to study the books and all the little details and drawings of the dresses – it was so interesting".

She told Variety, "You recognize that life is fragile and time goes quickly, and people pass away that we can’t imagine the world could exist without. It’s not a singular experience. It’s hard not to feel very close to a crew and other actors in this kind of a piece."
Former couple Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie wore vials of each other’s blood. The news viral exaggerated that claimed that they were vampires and lived in a dungeon.
During an interview with Esquire, Billy explained the reason behind the blood vials, “It was Angie’s idea. We had to be apart a lot. So she said, When we’re apart, I thought this would be cool: She got two of those little lockets where you can open it up, put a picture of your grandma or whatever. And we got a little razor blade. We cut our fingers and we smeared a little blood on this locket, close it up, and wear it around your neck. It’s a romantic gesture."
They split after two years of marriage. Billy tells, "It was just that she wanted to live a different lifestyle, which was going around the world, working for the UN—doing great stuff".
"Me, I’m more of a here guy. But Angie is, to this day, one of my best friends. We talk all the time."
During a talk to Elle magazine (2017), Angelina Jolie offered her advice to young women today.
She tells, "Your intelligence is everything. Your mind and what you fill yourself with—you know, the woman that spends her day shopping is going to be that woman. And the woman that spends her day reading and traveling and learning and talking to people is going to be that woman. And that's the woman you really want to be [the second one]. I think we have to encourage young women to know that, because they're getting fed a lot of the other. And then with that, they'll know. They'll know, and they'll feel it. They'll do the work because they'll become more aware of the world."
Angelina Jolie's driver-bodyguard, Dmytro Pyshchikov, was taken into custody. He was stopped at a checkpoint during her visit to Ukraine.
Pyshchikov will be sent to a military training centre before heading to the front line, despite having explained that he has an exemption due to a spinal condition.
Source said, "The citizen, as a driver, was part of the group that accompanied the foreign actress Angelina Jolie."
"Neither she nor her representatives influenced the work of military personnel and civil servants of the TRC and the Recruitment Centre, as some posts on the Internet try to suggest."
"The plan is to complete training and serve in the army." This followed Pyshchikov being held out of contact at the army's Territorial Recruitment Centre (TRC).
