The Shocking Reason Behind Angelina Jolie’s Transformation
Angelina Jolie, the Oscar-winning actress, recently revealed a surprising admission about how her motivations and outlook on life have evolved over the years.

Reflecting on Life and Mortality
The actress elaborated:
“It’s about survival, isn’t it?” She explained that maturity has brought her a deeper perspective on life.
“What’s fascinating is that the character I’m portraying – Maria Callas – is also deeply reflecting on death and the price of certain choices in life. That’s something I could never have comprehended in my 20s,” Jolie added.

Jolie admitted that stepping into this role was not just an artistic challenge but also an opportunity to explore and gain a deeper understanding of life’s values.
