Why Jolie finds Gun-playing Sexy

June 19th, 2008, All Angelina Jolie, Angelina's films,

In real life, Angelina Jolie is a Goodwill Ambassador for UNHCR that helps refugees and children around the world, regardless of race and gender. However, Jolie admits that she craves for violent and action-filled roles on screen and finds gunplay sexy. Since Jolie cannot be partnered with Brad Pitt in all her action films, she says that she prefers to spend action sequences that require rolling on the floor with her man Brad, over any other actor, “generally speaking”.

In an interview with MTV to promote her new action flick Wanted, which is set to open on June 27, Angelina was asked why she chose to work on another action film after doing ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith.” She answered by saying, “I was itching to do something that was physical, because I had done some emotional films and I had been at home with the kids. I didn’t know that there was anything original out there [until] I came across this script. ”

When asked whether physical roles would be a part of her future career, Jolie answered “I think there’s always going to be a side of me … you know, as long as I can. Harrison [Ford] is doing it, and he’s doing it well. It looks like I’ve got some more time.”

During the interview, Jolie admitted while she finds gunplay sexy, she keeps firearms in their home to protect her brood.

“Yeah, I mean obviously there’s a part of me that takes the world of violence and death very seriously. However, when it comes to protection or when it comes to just the skill of shooting … I’ve gone to the range with sniper rifles and things like that. Brad and I both like it a lot. That is something we have in common.”

Angelina is truly one-of-a-kind. You’d think she’d be all against guns, being a U.N. ambassador and all, but here she admits owning guns to protect her kids. Well, I’d do that too if I’m in constant target for paparazzi, stalkers and crazy fans.
