Angelina Jolie confused with the witch by a child, the brilliant anecdote

At 47, Angelina Jolie has a career worthy of the greatest. The American actress has distinguished herself in many roles, all more different from each other. In 2014, she lent her features to the main antagonist in Maleficent, a Disney project. If many children have watched the fantastic film, they also imagine that Angelina Jolie’s face is that of the witch. As the actress told in an interview given in 2021, a child she came to help as part of her mission to collaborate with the UN confused her with the villain of the film.

Angelina Jolie tells this hilarious anecdote : “I was the special envoy for an operation to help refugees. So we told the various families that I was there for them. I took care of a family but a little boy came into the room and started to back away. His mother was trying to calm him down, but I quickly realized he must have seen Maleficent.”

Angelina Jolie, an actress and committed to the UN

Angelina Jolie continued her story: “He was around 7 and thought, ‘She’s not here to help us, I know who she is!’” The actress of tomb Raider admits that it is difficult for a child to disassociate an actor from his roles. In her case, she imagines the fear felt by this little boy who is told that a woman from the UN came to help them when he thought he was dealing with a witch. Over the past two decades, the movie star has worked with United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). In 2012, Angelina Jolie became a special envoy and then Honorary Dame Commander of the Order of Saint Michael and Saint George (DCMG) in 2014. The actress received wide recognition for his humanitarian work in several countries around the world.
