On Friday (May 16, local time), Angelina attended the premiere of “Eddington” – a film starring Emma Stone, Austin Butler, Pedro Pascal, Joaquin Phoenix and many others. For this event, the 49-year-old actress chose a Brunello Cucinelli outfit made entirely of cashmere and silk, covered in sequins. Angelina Jolie made an even more impressive appearance at Cannes by choosing Chopard jewelry, wearing a diamond necklace with a pear-shaped center stone and matching earrings.
According to fashion insiders, it is impossible to know how much a unique item like the dress Angelian chose would cost, as the Italian luxury brand Brunello Cucinelli is known for its outrageous prices and luxurious textiles.
On the red carpet at the event, Angelina held hands and posed with Marie Colomb and Finn Bennett as well as Chopard co-president Caroline Scheufele. At the 78th Cannes, Angelina was named patron of this year’s Trophée Chopard and will present the award to young actors at the festival.
According to WWD, Angelina Jolie will mentor the young stars throughout the year as their mentor. Previous winners of the award include Florence Pugh, Anya Taylor-Joy, and John Boyega. And past mentors of the award include Demi Moore, Robert DeNiro, Julianne Moore, Sean Penn, and many more.
The last time Angelina Jolie attended this prestigious French film festival was in 2011, when she went with her then boyfriend Brad Pitt.
