Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Kids Vivienne, Pax & Zahara Featured In ‘Maleficent’ Movie; Viv Was ‘The Only 4-Year-Old Who Wouldn’t Scream,’ Says Ange

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie kids Vivienne, Pax & Zahara are going to appear on their mother's come back movie "Maleficent."

It has been reported that Ange's six children didn't not want her to play the role of Sleeping Beauty's evil witch Maleficent.

According to the 38-year-old star, during her first in-depth interview about her comeback movie for Disney, "They went, 'She's so scary!'"

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's youngest child, Vivienne was the only one who's not scared or intimidated by the black horns and evil look of Maleficent. Because of that, she was able to get the role of the young version of Princess Aurora.

"We think it's fun for our kids to have cameos and join us on set, but not to be actors. That's not our goal for Brad and I at all," Jolie says. "But the other 3- and 4-year-old [performers] wouldn't come near me. It had to be a child that liked me and wasn't afraid of my horns and my eyes and my claws. So it had to be Viv."

During the D23 convention in Anaheim, California in August, Jolie told the fans that her character in the movie Maleficent was so evil that children were frantically scared of her.

"The strange thing was people with little kids would visit the set and I would think, 'I'm a Disney character!'" Jolie said. "I'd go over to the children and say hi," she told the crowd. "And they would scream and run off. One little boy actually said Mommy, 'Please, tell the mean witch to please stop talking to me.'"

Vivienne, on the other hand, was the only kid who was brave enough not to scream. "She was the only 4-year-old who wouldn't scream," Jolie proudly said.

A rather unlikely character of her youngest daughter as it can be recalled from her Marie Claire interview back when Vivienne was three years old, Jolie said that "Vivi" was a "delicate" little girl.

"She is so elegant and delicate. Vivi will pick flowers from the garden and put them in her hair. She likes to get her nails done and collects stuffed animals"

"It's very funny for me to have to buy all things pink and watch princess movies!" The proud mom reveals.

Ange had to talk to her children and tell them a story just to convince them to allow her to take the role of the "Mistress of All Evil."

 "I said, 'Let me tell you the real story but you can't tell anybody,'" she recalls. "So this was my test too, like any parent. The next day, I heard Shiloh getting into a fight with another kid, defending Maleficent, saying, 'You don't understand her!' They got into a bit of an argument and I thought, that's the reason to do the film."

The story, she said was not to justify Maleficent's evil way, rather to show how she became misguided. "When that character makes mistakes - which Maleficent does, and crosses many lines - you want them to be angry at her and concerned and confused and in the end, somehow understand something that they didn't know before," Jolie says.

However, it was not easy for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's kids to accept the idea of their mom playing the role of the evil witch.

 "When Pax saw me for the first time, he ran away and got upset - and I thought he was kidding, so I was pretending to chase him until I actually found him crying," Jolie says. "I had to take off pieces [of the makeup] in front of him to show him it was all fake and not freak out so much."

Eventually, the kids managed to accept it, Pax and Zahara even ended up being extras in the infamous christening scene. "I had to walk by them being very mean," Jolie says. "Of course, I wanted to stop and wink at them."
