Angelina Jolie has one of the most versatile filmographies in Hollywood. From action thrillers to adventure films, and intense dramas, the star has covered a wide range of roles that have showcased her vast talent as an actor. With the years, Jolie reinvented herself further to become a Marvel superhero in Eternals to play a modified and unique version of the antagonist in the re-imagination of Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent.
Jolie’s debut at the tender age of 17 was a sci-fi action thriller Cyborg 2 in which the actor shared screen space with Jack Palance who featured in Tim Burton’s acclaimed Batman. While the film started the journey for Jolie to become a big star, the Girl, Interrupted actor did not have the easiest time watching her work in the film.
