Angelina Jolie impresses in her role as María Callas during filming in Paris

Angelina Jolie can boast of being one of the most respected and admired actresses in the film industry worldwide. The performer, who has starred in films such as Maleficent or Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, is already working on her next project and the first images of her characterization for her role have not gone unnoticed. The American will star in the biopic of María Callas, titled María, which will be released next 2024. Jolie has already put herself in the shoes of the artist, and as we said, the images of the filming in Paris have spread like wildfire on social networks .

The Chilean director Pablo Larraín will be in charge of directing the filming of this film, which will address the most notable moments of the artist's professional career, as well as some of the personal moments that most marked her. The artist, born on September 2, 1923, is considered the most eminent opera singer of the 20th century. Angelina Jolie was chosen to play the main role in this film.

As we said, the first images of the filming have just spread like wildfire when we saw the almost unrecognizable actress in the role of the soprano. In the images, Jolie wears huge glasses and clothes based on the designs worn by the great opera diva. Some photographs that have already gone around the world and have been the most commented on on social networks. "I love it" or "Iconic" are some of the comments that can be read on X (formerly Twitter).

This role marks Jolie's return to the big screen since 2021. Her last project was Eternals. The actress has not had a very easy last few years, in the midst of the separation process from her ex-partner, Brad Pitt, with whom she has six children in common. In these 7 years of confrontations, neither Brad Pitt nor Angelina Jolie have wanted to talk about the breakup and the subsequent divorce process, but it is understood that it was somewhat turbulent, as the actress implies in an interview for the November issue from the American edition of Vogue.

"I've been feeling a little depressed lately. In some ways, I don't feel like I've been myself for 10 years, but I'd rather not talk about it," said Jolie, who split from Pitt in September 2016 after more than a decade together. . "I started working less in film 7 years ago, only accepting jobs that did not require long shoots. We had a lot to heal," she expressed, about her little presence on set. In these years she has only participated in the sequel to Maleficent, Eternals and Those who wish me dead. Now she is back on film sets, and in what way.
