Angelina Jolie has stepped out in style in a rare public outing with her son Knox.
Arriving arm-in-arm with Knox, 16, to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences’ 15th Annual Governors Awards’ red carpet in Los Angeles on Sunday, November 17, Jolie, 49, beamed with pride.
Knox, one of six children Jolie shares with Brad Pitt and the twin brother of Vivienne, revealed a significant growth spurt during the appearance, appearing taller than his famous mother who wore high heels to the event.
The pair posed for photographs on the ceremony’s red carpet as Jolie, dressed in a gold floor-length gown paired with a statement silver necklace and drop earrings, kept an arm on her son, looking over to smile at him at one stage as he stood comfortably in front of the cameras.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s kids have grown up in the spotlight. The former couple started dating in 2005, three years after the actress adopted her son, Maddox, from Cambodia. Pitt then accompanied Jolie to Ethiopia in 2005 to adopt Zahara, and he legally adopted both kids in 2006. The Oscar winners went on to […]
Knox’s return to the red carpet comes more than three years since his last appearance, which was in October 2021 when his siblings Maddox, 23, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and Vivienne, attended the London premiere of Jolie’s Marvel film Eternals. (Pax, 20, was absent from the premiere at the time.)

The pair’s date night comes after Jolie recently revealed that her children are unlikely to follow in her and their father’s acting footsteps. “No, I think they’re especially shy, very private people,” Jolie told AND! News at the AFI premiere of her new film Maria on October 26. “They want to be private.”
Although the childrens’ professional ambitions might steer them clear of the spotlight, many of them have proved an ongoing support to Jolie’s film career. Maddox, Pax and Zahara stepped out with Jolie at the New York Film Festival in September as Maria screened at the event.
“It’s meant everything,” Jolie told Extra at the time while reflecting on her childrens’ support. “Before you get out in these things, you’re as nervous. They 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.”
Angelina Jolie and three of her children lit up the New York Film Festival’s red carpet over the weekend. Jolie, 49, was joined by her children, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, and Maddox, 23, as she attended the festival’s premiere of her film Maria on Sunday, September 29. Stepping out at New York’s Alice Tully Hall, […]
While onscreen pursuits may be unlikely, Jolie’s two eldest children served behind the scenes on Mariaassisting director Pablo Larrain as he worked on the film, which charts the life of opera singer Maria Callas.

“Mad and Pax were on this one doing AD [assistant directing] work,” Jolie told The Hollywood Reporter in August. “They’ve done that quite a few times, and I think that’s good for them. Pax tends to do stills and he gets brought in, and Pablo was wonderful and recognized that he was good at it.”
Vivenne has also joined her mom on various projects, helping Jolie produce The Outsiders on Broadway, which premiered in April, and appearing as a young version of Elle Fanning’s Aurora in Jolie’s 2014 film Maleficent.
