Angelina Jolie Says She Plans to Give Up Acting

Angelina Jolie apparently isn't angling to be the next Helen Mirren or Meryl Streep. Similar to fiance Brad Pitt, who said he could foresee taking that pretty face of his behind the camera to direct once he hits 50, Jolie told Britain's Channel 4 News that she sees herself calling it a career in the not-too-distant future.

"I think I'm going to have to give up the acting as the kids hit the teenage years, anyway, too much to manage at home," says the Salt star in an interview in which she also acknowledges that her human-rights work for the United Nations has been more rewarding than acting on the whole.
