ANY kids think their
moms are superheroes
but the brood of one
of the world’s most
famous women have
more reason to think
so than most.
Next year, their
mother will transform into a warrior

who lives forever and helps save the
universe from madness and evil. She has
superhuman strength and speed, the
agility of a panther and the reflexes of a

cat. Her bow fires arrows that release
“cold energy” and her spear surrounds
her victims with a ring of intense heat.

Cool, hey? That’s what Angelina Jolie’s
kids think – because their mom will play
the warrior Thena in the next Marvel
movie, Eternals, about a race of immor-

tal beings who once lived on Earth.
All of which points to one thing: Angie
(44) might have largely retreated from
the spotlight in recent years to focus on

raising her six kids, but she’s well and
truly on her way back now.
And Maddox (18), Pax (15), Zahara

(14), Shiloh (13) and twins Knox and
Vivienne (11) couldn’t be happier for her.
“What’s really moving to me is that
they want to see me strong. They’re just

happy I’ll be strong and having fun,” she
recently told People magazine.
Eternals, which is set for release in No-
vember next year and is still cloaked in a

veil of secrecy, will also star Richard
Madden of Game of Thrones fame and
Salma Hayek.

Playing Thena will require Angelina to
undergo serious training that will in-
clude “everything fromswordstoballet”.
