‘They want to see me strong’ – Angelina Jolie’s Shiloh and Clan Shine at ‘Eternals’ premiere

In Eternals, directed by Oscar-winning Chloé Zhao, Jolie embodies the character of Thena — a warrior of formidable strength, speed, and stamina. This role, Jolie expressed, was a source of pride for her children. “What’s really moving to me is that they want to see me strong, and so it’s less to see me in a film, but they’re just happy I will be strong and having fun,” Jolie had told PEOPLE. Her role as a warrior mirrored her resilience as a mother, standing strong for her family both on and off the camera.
