Angelina Jolie and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, Maleficent
Angelina Jolie starred alongside her daughter Vivienne Jolie-Pitt in the 2014 fantasy film Maleficent.
Angelina plays powerful fairy Maleficent, who puts a curse on princess Aurora, also known as Sleeping Beauty.
Vivienne played a young Aurora, aged just 5.
Rumour has it she got the part because she wasn't scared of Angelina when she was dressed up in her Maleficent costume!
She's since worked her mum on other projects - including producing a Broadway musical in the USA.
There's no business like show business, as they say.

Her voice was later featured on the Beyoncé song Blue, and she even appeared in the song's music video.
More recently, Blue has appeared on stage with her mum singing as part of Beyoncé's Renaissance tour. Wow!
