00:00 Angelina Jolie is heading to Broadway and getting a little help from her 15-year-old
00:05 daughter, Vivian.
00:06 "I'm very, very fortunate."
00:08 The actress will serve as a lead producer for the musical The Outsiders,
00:12 an adaptation of S.E. Hinton's novel and Francis Ford Coppola's 1983 film.
00:18 "Come on, dear. Play him five, man. Everyone's can't stop before a rumble.
00:22 Skinny against skinny, ain't gonna get hurt."
00:24 And Vivian? She'll be her mom's volunteer assistant on the project.
00:29 "I feel like my world expands as their world expands."
00:32 Angie tells ET in a statement that her daughter isn't focused on being the center of attention,
00:38 but in being a support to other creatives. The Oscar winner, who shares Viv with her ex,
00:43 Brad Pitt, says the teen is very thoughtful and serious about theater and working hard to
00:48 best understand how to contribute.
00:51 "I'm always learning, trying to be better, and I hope that they are too."
00:54 Now a source tells ET that Angie's been taking Vivian to the theater since she was a little girl.
01:00 And earlier this year, they went to see the world premiere of The Outsiders in San Diego,
01:05 and both fell in love with it.
01:07 After that, ET's source says Angie was inspired to take a role as a lead producer for the upcoming
01:13 launch on Broadway. And a source close to Angie says she's excited about this new venture,
01:18 and thinks it will resonate with a younger crowd.
01:21 She wants to ensure the team is listening and working with young people every step of the way,
01:26 and that their voices are leading in bringing this production to life on Broadway.
01:31 So what's it about? The book, published in 1967,
01:35 details the conflict between two rival gangs divided by their socioeconomic status,
01:41 the working-class Greasers and the upper-class Socs, short for socials.
01:47 And while Vivian is working behind the scenes now,
01:50 she had a small role alongside her mom in the 2014 film Maleficent.
01:55 "Go away. Go. Go away."
02:01 "She doesn't see a monster. She doesn't see horns. She just sees mommy."
02:07 But Vivian isn't the only one following in her famous parents' showbiz footsteps.
02:12 The former couple share six children together, and their sons, 22-year-old Maddox and 19-year-old
02:18 Pax, previously collaborated with their mom on the upcoming film Without Blood,
02:23 a movie she directed, working in the assistant director department.
02:28 Then there's 17-year-old Shiloh, who can seriously cut a rug.
02:32 "We all fell in love with the video of Shiloh dancing. Bro, that girl is bad."
02:51 "Yeah, it brings a tear to the eye. Yeah, very beautiful."
02:54 "I don't know where she got it from because..."
02:55 "Mr. Two Left Feet here."
02:59 "I just saw a little shuffle now. I just saw a little shuffle. Okay."
03:02 "More of a bounce."
03:03 And for Angie, it's always a family affair.
03:07 "I'm a mom. So that's my thing."
03:11 Back in 2021, Angelina attended the Hollywood premiere of her flick Eternals
03:17 with five of her six kids — Zahara, Shiloh, Maddox, Vivian, and Knox — who all wore vintage looks.
03:25 Some straight out of their famous mom's closet.
03:28 "My kids are all mixed with, like, vintage and my old Oscars. These are my old Oscar dress.
03:33 We did all vintage and, like, upcycled my old stuff."
03:36 And while we'll just have to wait to see Angie and Vivian's work on Broadway,
03:40 something tells us there will be lots of family moments to enjoy in the meantime.
