Acting is a family affair for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

Although Jolie once said she didn't want her children to get involved with acting, it appears those fears have subsided. In her upcoming Cleopatra biopic, Jolie will star alongside not only her partner Brad Pitt, but will also share the limelight with all six of her children, reports The Daily Mirror.

This will be the second film the couple has made together – the first was Mr. & Mrs. Smith, the set where they fell in love. Cleopatra is also the second time she’s allowed her children to venture into acting, as her six-year-old daughter Vivienne played Aurora in Disney’s Maleficent.

“Neither one of us want our children to be actors, Brad and I, but it was just I really couldn't ask another four or five-year-old to do it because kids on [Maleficent’s] set did actually get scared and they would cry when they would see me,” said Jolie.

Jolie and Pitt will also be starring together in Universal’s By the Sea, reports Deadline and The Celebrity Cafe. The film will be produced by the two and directed by Jolie.
