Jolie’s other three children, Shiloh, 18, and twins, Vivienne, 16 and Knox, 16, whom Jolie shares with Brad Pitt , were absent from the family outing.

The actress told Extra that evening that she felt grateful to have her children’s support. “You know, before you get out in these things, you're as nervous," she told the outlet. "They [Jolie’s children] just said, 'No matter what, Mom, good luck and we know how hard you work and we love you.' You know, you just have that moment where the people who are with you tell you, succeed or fail, they care about you."

Jolie added that the family were excited to share a night out together at the festival. “We all just, you know, said we're gonna have a good time tonight,” she said.

Jolie stars in the biopic Maria , which is scheduled to be released in cinemas on November 27, as the late opera singer Maria Callas . She got candid about her preparations for the role while speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published on August 30.

“It was an out-of-body experience because I don’t sing,” Jolie told the outlet of shooting the film at La Scala, the famous opera house located in Milan, Italy. “I had somebody in my life who was not kind to me about singing. It was a relationship I was in. And so I just assumed I couldn’t really sing.” Jolie did not name who the person was.
