Angelina Jolie continues to be at the top of the list of Hollywood’s finest female action stars. The actress is regarded as one of the best female action stars in the industry and has acted in a variety of action films throughout her career. The stunning diva is regarded as having a strong and brave attitude, which is evident in her movies. Apart from acting, the actress is also a well-known filmmaker.
Angelina Jolie has performed leading roles in multiple blockbuster movies and franchises, and even in the leading comic industry of all times, MCU. Most of her movies are action-based, and although there were some movies a bit focused on romance, there must have been at least one action seen. She took the world by surprise, even the cast members when she got a bit intense with her ex-lover.
Angelina Jolie Got a Bit Too Steamy With her Ex-Husband
The skill of acting is demonstrated by the performers’ capacity to persuade the audience to buy whatever the script asks them to. The demands may be infinite, ranging from heart-pounding action to exotic on-screen romance. Angelina Jolie, however, is one of Hollywood’s A-list celebrities and has a distinguished acting career, making her a sought-after figure in the business. But there were times when even Jolie was given the side eye due to her on-screen hot scene with her ex-husband Jonny Lee Miller.
During an interview with The Sun, the Eternals actress, Angelina Jolie shared that in the movie Hackers, she had a very hot and steamy scene with the male lead of the movie, Lee Miller, who also went on to be her husband.
“In Hackers, there was a scene – cut out – where I am supposedly making love to Jonny’s character and all the film crew see my bre**ts. I am very angular, with a D-cup br**st, and all the guys started looking away. I was there with my top off but the male crew were embarrassed and they didn’t want to stare.
Jonny Lee Miller and I kept things quiet about what was happening between us because it was still important that the guys in the film would feel they could hang out with me. Everyone could see we liked each other, but nothing more.”
The scene was very explicit as many cast members had to turn their eyes due to embarrassment, and the scene was eventually decided to be removed from the movie. The movie was released in 1995 and the duo went on to marry each other in 96, only to separate three years later, in 1999.
Lara Croft – Angelina Jolie’s Most Succesful Franchise
Angelina Jolie enthralled the audience in 2001’s action-packed film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider with her depiction of Lara Croft. Jolie performed her own risky stunts, solidifying her position as a female action star. The movie became a huge economic success, as it went on to collect $273.3 million at the box office against a budget of $94 million. Despite this, Jolie feels that the film gave her the courage to keep doing her own stunts in her subsequent projects. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider – The Cradle of Life was a bit on the lower side with $157 million and with $90 million budget.
Angelina Jolie has a ton of awards and nominations against her name. With 117 nominations and 58 wins, she is one of the most accomplished in the industry. Some of her awards contain the Academy Awards, Critics Choice Awards, the Golden Globes, MTV Movie + TV Awards, and many others.
