Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, once considered the ultimate power couple of Hollywood, began their romantic journey in 2005 on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
The pair enjoyed a 12-year relationship before tying the knot in 2014.
However, just two years into their marriage, Jolie initiated divorce proceedings, which were finalized in 2019.
The high-profile split between the Maleficent star and her former spouse captured widespread media attention, particularly as they engaged in a legal dispute over the custody of their children post-separation.
Surprisingly, the ex-couple remains entangled in a legal wrangle concerning a French winery they once co-owned.
Notably, despite their personal differences, Jolie and Pitt collaborated on two films together.
During the filming of the provocative drama By the Sea, peculiar incidents unfolded on set, with Jolie sharing one particular bizarre occurrence.
Jolie and Pitt, renowned for their lengthy courtship but brief marriage, have been locked in a contentious legal battle over child custody since their breakup.
Their initial encounter occurred on the Mr. & Mrs. Smith film set, where their on-screen chemistry later translated to a second joint project, By the Sea.
In an interview, Jolie disclosed some of the unconventional happenings during the production of their second film.
While endeavoring to balance their personal and professional lives, Pitt reportedly engaged in a peculiar act by urinating on Jolie’s shoes.
The narrative of By the Sea involved intense interactions between their characters, demanding meticulous portrayal by the mother of six.
Recalling the experience, Jolie humorously recounted a day on set when she and Pitt decided to engage in absurd activities.
Consequently, the actor unexpectedly urinated on her shoes, leading to a comical yet unexpected turn of events where Jolie packed her belongings in preparation to depart, only to discover a playful message inscribed on her forehead while she pretended to be asleep.
By the Sea marked the final cinematic collaboration between Jolie and Pitt following their celebrated on-screen debut in Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
Regrettably, their professional partnership concluded amidst the disintegration of their personal relationship post-By the Sea.
Subsequent to their divorce in 2016, Jolie and Pitt faced discomfort while filming intimate scenes for By the Sea, their second and final joint film project.
Jolie confessed to feeling uneasy working alongside Pitt, particularly during scenes that necessitated close proximity.
The actress emphasized the importance of maintaining clear boundaries between her personal and professional spheres to prevent any undue complications or confusion.
Navigating the complexities of directing and performing intimate scenes with her former spouse proved challenging for Jolie, who also took on the roles of writer and director for By the Sea.
The movie depicted a married couple exploring a newfound interest in their neighbors, portraying a narrative that mirrored elements of the actors’ real-life dynamics.
For those interested, By the Sea is currently available for rental on Apple TV+.
