Angelina Jolie will soon be coming back to the big screen with her villain avatar in Maleficent: Mistress of Evil. The actress has travelled far and wide to promote the film and in a recent interview Angelina revealed how her Maleficent co-star Elle Fanning has taught her to be 'goofy'. Speaking to This Morning, Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning appeared on the show and discussed their experience of working with each other since the original Maleficent released in 2014. 

Revealing about what she has learnt about working with Elle, Angelina said, "I’ve learned a lot with Elle, with my children I’m silly and light but sometimes in my life I’m not." While working on the first part of the film, Elle was a 14-year-old teenager. The actress added that their relationship has evolved since then. 

"Being with her as a child brought out this lightness this softness out in me, and it continues to be our relationship where she smiles at my strength and toughness and it makes me goofy and fun." Speaking further about their bond, Elle said, "I was 14, Angelina and I we had the first movie and she's watched me grow up and now here we are again, I’m older I feel like we have this bond which I felt I was accepted as one of the women on set."
