Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt appear to be poised for a potential public reunion next month.
Once Hollywood’s favorites, the former couple have been embroiled in a contentious legal battle over their divorce for eight years, ever since splitting up in 2016.
And though in the past eight years they seem to have managed to not cross each other’s paths at major Hollywood events and award shows, the upcoming Venice International Film Festival might change that.

As their legal battle, which is largely pertaining to settling a dispute over their French vineyard and estate, forges on, both Angelina and Brad will have new films premiere at the annual, star-studded festival, which begins on August 28.
Angelina, who last premiered a movie in 2021, Marvel’s Eternals, will showcase Maria, a biopic dedicated to the life of famed opera singer Maria Callas, directed by Pablo Larraín, who also directed the Jackie Kennedy and Princess Diana biopics, Jackie and Spencer, starring Natalie Portman and Kristen Stewart, respectively.
The film also stars The Power of the Dog breakout Kodi Smit-McPhee, plus Haluk Bilginer — as Jackie Kennedy’s former husband Aristotle Onassis — Valeria Golino, and Pierfrancesco Favino, among others.

They had tied the knot in 2014, though they started dating in 2005, and are parents to six kids, Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, Shiloh, 18, and twins Vivienne and Knox, who just turned 16.
Many of the kids have long been rumored to be estranged from their father, and several have moved to drop his last name from their own, including his eldest sons, daughter Zahara, and most recently Shiloh, who filed a motion to change her last name to just Jolie as soon as she turned 18.
