Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton, once a fiery duo in the limelight, took their openness to another level when discussing their personal lives.
However, things took a serious turn when Thornton engaged in intimate scenes with Halle Berry, reportedly causing strain in his marriage to Jolie.
Their collaboration on “Monster’s Ball” in 2001 led to steamy scenes that seemed to unsettle the A-list actress.
Released as a romance drama, “Monster’s Ball” starred Berry and Thornton, who were married from 2000 to 2003.
Intimate scenes in movies can create tension for actors, sometimes translating into discomfort for their real-life partners, as seen in the case of Jolie and Thornton.
In an interview with The Sun newspaper, Billy Bob Thornton candidly shared the challenges he faced due to the explicit scenes with Halle Berry and how they impacted his relationship with Angelina Jolie.
Reflecting on his experience, he remarked, “Even if you’re working on a Disney film or providing voiceovers for cartoons, you might be separated for months.
Consider my situation – filming ‘Monster’s Ball’ involved a very explicit scene with Halle Berry.”
Thornton elaborated on a conversation with his then-wife, Angelina Jolie, recalling her inquiry about his day’s activities.
He recounted, “When she asked what I did that day, I mentioned the intimate scene with Halle Berry.
She questioned if I physically touched her, to which I explained it was part of the scene.”
Discussing the complexities actors face while simulating intimacy on screen, Thornton emphasized the added challenge of being far from home during such shoots.
Reflecting on the doubts that can arise in such situations, he highlighted the strain of portraying such scenes with a beautiful co-star while miles away from one’s partner.
Years following his split from Angelina Jolie, Billy Bob Thornton reflected on their relationship, acknowledging his own insecurities and self-doubt that contributed to the demise of their marriage.
Despite their separation, he noted, “I believed I wasn’t deserving of her, feeling inadequate.
Nonetheless, we remain on good terms.”
Presently, Angelina Jolie leads a solitary life, focusing on her children post her divorce from Brad Pitt.
