Although it was said she hoped to spark up a romance with the actor by having him star alongside her in the upcoming Marvel movie, The Eternals, an individual in the mother-of-six’s camp laughed off the claim.

Rumours of a romance between Angelia and Colin Farrell were rift after she attended the premiere of his film Dumbo.

They reportedly had a fling back in 2004 after working together in Alexander and are thought to have rekindled their romance.

However, neither actor nor their representatives have confirmed the reports they are dating.

In May, a story was published claiming Jolie was hoping to pursue her co-star Nicholas Hut, who is dating Bryana Holly.

But a publicist for the humanitarian shut down the allegations and told the actress is not interesting in dating.

During the '90s Angelina's career took off, beginning with sci-fi action flick Cyborg 2 and leading to roles in Mojave Moon, Playing God and The Bone Collector.

From there she appeared in Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow, Alexander, Mr & Mrs Smith, The Good Shepherd, A Mighty Heart and Changeling, the last of which earned her huge critical acclaim.

After 2010 she had a variety of movie projects to choose from and went for Salt, The Tourist and Maleficent.

As a director, Angelina has combined her humanitarian concerns with her work, making A Place In Time, In The Land Of Blood And Honey, Unbroken and First They Killed My Father.

She did however make romantic drama By The Sea with Brad Pitt, which was panned in 2015.

How much is Angelina Jolie worth?

The Hollywood actress is reportedly worth £100 million, according to .

In 2018 it was reported that the Academy Award-winning actress earned a staggering £11 million.

Brad hit back at Angelina's claims that he has failed to pay her "meaningful child support" since their split.

Lawyers for the actor, 54, have claimed in court documents that Brad has shelled out more than £7million to the actress since they separated.

What humanitarian work has Angelina done?

Since then she's worked with refugees in many countries, travelling to war zones to help them, as well as fighting for land and animal conservation, women's rights, education, child immigration to more developed countries and the prevention of sexual violence - the last issue leading her to work with William Hague.

Is Angelina Jolie still married to Brad Pitt?

Yes! Angelina is currently married to, and in the middle of a divorce with, 54-year-old Brad Pitt.

The pair got together while making Mr And Mrs Smith, and he was still married to Jennifer Aniston at the time.

Since then Ange and Brad starred together in one other film, By The Sea, which was a critical failure in 2015.

After the divorce bombshell hit in 2016, the world held its breath to see how ugly it would all get - particularly as they have six kids together. 

But in September 2017 reports stated that the couple were close to calling off their divorce after Brad showed willing to improve himself and Ange told pals she was miserable alone.

Brad is not Angelina's first husband.

She was married to her British co-star from Hackers, Jonny Lee Miller, from 1996 to 1999.

She then entered a long on-off relationship with model and actress Jenny Shimizu, who Ange says she fell in love with "the second [she] saw her".

But in 2000 Angelina married Billy Bob Thornton who she'd met while they were both seeing other people - he, Laura Dern, and she, Timothy Hutton.

They split up three months after adopting a child from Cambodia in 2003.

Two years later she and Brad began their "Brangelina" love affair, and she got pregnant with his child in 2006 - the first moment when they both acknowledged the relationship.

The pair didn't marry until 2014, and two years alter Jolie filed for divorce, demanding full custody of their children, which she was granted.

Over the years, the Hollywood duo have built up an impressive string of houses across the globe.

It's rumoured that Angelina's name is on the title of all of the houses and the couple's main residence is located in Hollywood and borders Los Feliz.

As the years have gone by, the property has sprawled and expanded, with Brad even installing a skate park especially for his six kids.

The lavish site isn't the only impressive pad to be a part of the Jolie-Pitt empire.

Their grand estate in Chateau Miraval in France is bound to set buyers into a frenzy if it's put on the market.

It's believed that the £40 million site went under a dramatic renovation process, which took years.

Remarkably, the homes that make up Miraval are believed to boast 35 bedrooms and span across 1,000 acres of land.

Although there's no doubt that the properties ooze luxury, it might not be an easy task selling up.

In 2015, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie listed their New Orleans home for around £5 million, but then dropped the listing price to £4.3 million.

Reportedly, another one of the couple's properties is a stunning holiday home in Majorca.

How did Angelina Jolie become famous and what is her background?

Angelina Jolie is a 44-year-old US actress and director.

She won an Oscar for her role in Girl, Interrupted in 2000 but is best-known for her starring role in the original Tomb Raider movie franchise

Born and bred in LA, she is the daughter of veteran actor and star of Deliverance, Jon Voight, and actress Marcheline Bertrand, who died of ovarian cancer in 2007.

Her brother is actor James Haven who, like Angelina, was estranged from Voight - who left Marcheline when Angelina was one - until after the death of their mother.

From a young age Angelina exhibited an eccentric personality and mental instability, engaging in self-harm and knife play as well as being a "punk outsider" at school.

By the age of 20 she'd taken "every drug possible" and she tried to commit suicide twice at 19 and 22.

But Angelina knew she wanted to be an actress after attending the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute - where Claire Danes and Scarlett Johansson studied - and performing in many plays.

Her career has been characterised by dramas in her personal life, including the fact she wore a vial of her boyfriend Billy Bob Thornton's blood round her neck, and likes to kiss her own brother on the red carpet.

The tattooed star has also battled against cancer after learning the female side of her family carry the gene for ovarian and breast cancer.

She had a preventative double mastectomy in 2013 and a oophorectomy in 2015, which brought on early menopause.
