Angelina immersed herself in the moral of the film, which told her precious Brooklyn Prince about the importance of keeping promises.

‘I think a lot of people can relate that too. Where they expect to be what people assume they are and they do not often have the friends or freedom to express who they really are … and to be that person.

The Tomb Raider actress found a connection to her own life in the film’s message.

‘I’m pretty much who I am because I do not know how to be different … but if you ask me,’ Do I think people really know me as who I really am? “I think only my children could explain who I am,” she said.
