Washington: Angelina Jolie has said that she discussed her directorial debut with Barack Obama, when she and Brad Pitt met the US president at the White House on January 11.
Escorted into the White House by several security guards, the couple met with Obama during a break from promoting Jolie’s ‘In the Land of Blood and Honey’, and the actress says the movie came up over the course of their one-on-one discussion.
Travelling with Zana Marjanovic, who appears in a lead role in the Bosnian love story, Jolie chatted with Obama “about Sarajevo and our concerns with things going on,” Us magazine quoted Jolie as telling Extra.
Meanwhile, long-time Obama supporter Pitt discussed his work in New Orleans with Vice President Joe Biden. Although the ‘Tomb Raider’ actress is tight-lipped on the rest of her meeting details, she did say that her time with Obama was ‘wonderful’.
