Wings of Freedom: Angelina Jolie’s Journey Beyond Hollywood
Angelina Jolie appears to be ready for a significant change, yearning to leave Hollywood behind in favor of a more nomadic lifestyle that reflects her love for travel and exploration. After spending much of the year in New York City for her role in the Broadway production of The Outsiders, sources reveal that Jolie finds her happiest moments when she’s traveling with her children, immersing themselves in diverse cultures and learning from local experiences. Once she has the freedom to move, it’s clear that her heart lies in adventure; she values solitude but maintains friendships in Europe that will ease her journey.
Jolie’s desire for her children to embrace their passions and experience the world mirrors her own nomadic spirit. Growing up in an international context—having given birth to her biological children overseas—she hopes to inspire them to pursue their interests, wherever they may lead. However, her complex relationship with Hollywood, particularly with ex-husband Brad Pitt, is a significant factor in her decision to seek distance from Tinseltown. Reports suggest that the possibility of running into Jolie in Los Angeles is particularly irksome for Pitt, who is used to holding the spotlight in his own way. But she plans to wait until her six children—Maddox (23), Pax (20), Zahara (19), Shiloh (18), and the 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne—are adults before leaving.
In a recent interview, Jolie articulated her longing for privacy and peace for her large family, expressing that the environment she seeks for raising her children is one that contrasts sharply with her own upbringing. As she navigates the busy landscape of awards buzz around her upcoming film Maria, she is becoming increasingly aware of the pressures of fame. She stated, “When you have a big family, you want them to have privacy, peace, and safety.” It’s clear that Jolie’s vision for her family and her own life is shifting, leaning toward a perspective that values the beauty of the world outside Hollywood’s glitzy façade, inviting a new chapter filled with adventure and cultural richness.
