The oldest child of Angelina and Brad is named Maddox. Born in August 2001, he was adopted from Cambodia in 2002, and originally his name was Rath Vibol. His adoption took place while Angelina was still married to Billy Bob Thornton.

Angelina went on to launch a foundation in Cambodia that provides education, healthcare, and more to the children of the area.

The youngest members of the Jolie-Pitt clan are twins Knox and Vivienne. They were born to Angelina and Brad in July 2008 and share a lot of the same aesthetic qualities as their older sister Shiloh. Vivienne starred in Maleficent alongside Angelina in the baby role of Princess Aurora, reportedly earning her a pretty paycheck of $3,000 per week.

It seems nearly all of Angelina and Brad's kids have the potential to follow in their footsteps in the Hollywood industry if they choose to.
