Line 53:
* [[Action Girl]]: Is well-known for playing them, although it certainly isn't the only type of role she can play. Examples include [[Lara Croft Tomb Raider (Film)|Lara Croft]], [[Mr. and Mrs Smith|Jane Smith]], [[Salt|Evelyn Salt]] and [[Wanted|Fox]].
* Adorkable
* [[Awesome, Dear Boy]]:
** She agreed to act in ''[[Lara Croft Tomb Raider (Film)|Lara Croft Tomb Raider]]'' because of the locations she got to visit. She fell in love with Cambodia, leading her to move there and help with minefield cleanup. It was also where she met and eventually adopted her first son, Maddox.
** Also, along with [[Jude Law]] and [[Gwyneth Paltrow]], she signed on for ''[[Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow]]'' immediately after watching Kerry Conran's six-minute film, which he produced on a home computer. They were all impressed with his vision, and wanted to see the film to its completion. (Also, it allowed her to wear an [[Eyepatch of Power|eyepatch]] and a bubble-helmet, two things she'd always wanted.)
Line 66:
* [[Fascinating Eyebrow]]: She's a master of this when the role requires it. ''[[Lara Croft Tomb Raider (Film)|Lara Croft Tomb Raider]]'' is a good example.
* [[Fake Brit]]: Has put on English accents for her roles in the two ''[[Lara Croft Tomb Raider (Film)|Lara Croft Tomb Raider]]'' movies, ''[[The Tourist]]'' and for ''[[Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow]]''.
* [[Fetish]]: She appears to have one for blood. She wrote her groom's name, Johnny Lee Miller, in her own blood on the [[Blood
* [[Former Child Star]]: Averted. She first appeared in a minor role in the 1982 film ''Lookin' to Get Out'' alongside her father, started a modelling career at 14, and appeared in theatre and in several music videos. She then went on to have an incredibly successful career.
* [[Friend to All Children]]: She's been a UNICEF special ambassador/envoy for quite a few years now and takes this job with great seriousness, globetrotting tirelessly on behalf of UNICEF. In point of fact, she often keeps her UN trips deliberately low-key to try to keep her celebrity from interfering with the task at hand; for instance, she made an unannounced visit to Bosnia in the spring of 2010 (on break from shooting ''[[The Tourist]]'') to investigate the postwar status of orphans in that country.
Line 81:
* [[She's Got Legs]]: As proven by [http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/the-10-best-pictures-of-angelina-jolies-right-leg her 2012 Oscars dress].
* [[Stage Names]]: Her name was originally this (Jolie was actually her middle name), until she dropped Voight as her surname.
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]
* [[Typecasting]]: She's famous and talented enough to get any role she wants, but audiences tend to only buy her as a [[Femme Fatale]] or [[Action Girl]]. She's done several other character types, but they rarely do well at the box office.
