Angelina Jolie says she has spent years quietly preparing her six children for a future without her, telling Variety that she does not expect to live a long life and raises them with her own death firmly in mind as she promotes new film Couture in Los Angeles in June 2026.
For context, the Oscar winner's stark comments surfaced in a new interview tied to Couture, a drama about a filmmaker who is diagnosed with cancer during Paris Fashion Week, a storyline Jolie has said mirrors the fears that have shaped her own family life since losing her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, to breast and ovarian cancer at 56.
