    Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will avoid any awkward run-in this week while promoting their movies at the Venice International Film Festival — as programmers have taken extra precaution to keep the embattled exes apart.

    In a recent interview with Vanity Fair , Venice artistic director Alberto Barbera said the fest took special care to keep the famous exes’ films from overlapping on its schedule.

    “Angelina will be on the first day, on Thursday [Aug. 29], and she will leave right after with [‘Maria’ director] Pablo Larraín” for the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado, Barbera said. “So Brad will arrive only on Saturday, to Venice. There is no way that they can cross each other at the Lido,” the famed island on which the fest takes place.

    The acrimony has extended to their children, with some of their six kids even dropping Pitt’s famous last name .

    It was reported earlier this month that the “Fight Club” actor has “virtually no contact” with his adult children and “limited visits” with his youngest kids, because he has been busy filming racing movie, “F1.”

    They couple’s kids include Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins  twins Knox and Vivienne, 15.
