Angelina Jolie returns to the spotlight in stunning mink gown, promoting new movie By the Sea.

She’s been busy directing and starring in her latest movie By the Sea.

But it was easy to forget that Angelina Jolie had ever left when the actress attended a press conference ahead of the release of her new flick at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles on Friday.

The 40-year-old actress looked typically stunning in a chiffon mink dress which featured pretty pleated detailing.

The mother-of-six has been busy on the promotional trail her for latest production which marks the first movie she has starred in alongside husband Brad Pitt since they appeared in 2005’s Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which they fell in love on the set of.

However she is quick to point out that the story – about a couple whose marriage is on the brink of collapse – is not based on their own relationship.

Speaking to The Today Show recently, Angelina said: ‘I’m counting on the audience to know that if it was close to us at all, we could never make this film.

More than words: The new trailer does not feature any dialogue at all, adding to the intensity

‘It’s because we’re actually very, very stable and these aren’t our issues.’

A new trailer for the 1970s set drama was released on Friday, but doesn’t give too much away.

With no dialogue, the clip still shows plenty of tense moments between the volatile characters, with Roland (Brad) getting aggressive and Vanessa (Angelina) popping pills.

By The Sea will be released in the US on November 13 and the UK on December 11.
