But in addition to that adorable face, Louis Zamperini is also a 96-year-old war hero with a story that will make your jaw hit the floor!
His harrowing tale is the subject of Angie’s next directorial endeavor, in the upcoming film Unbroken!
This candid shot shows Jolie smiling and resting her head on Zamperini’s shoulder. You can tell, she has nothing but the utmost respect for this brave soldier!
The two met last year after Angelina signed on to direct the movie about his AH-Mazing story of surviving not only 47 days stranded at sea but then years as a Japanese prisoner of war during World War II!
Angelina spoke about turning Louis’ incredible ordeal into a film, saying:
“It will be hard to make a film worthy of this great man. I am deeply honored to have the chance and will do all I can to bring Louie’s inspiring story to life.”
The Oscar-winning actress will be adapting Laura Hillenbrand‘s 2010 bestselling biography about Louis.
Filming for the flick is set to start in Australia very soon, with Garrett Hedlund and English actor Jack O’Connell set to star.
We will PROUDLY see this story when it arrives on the big screen!
