Maddox will take to the screen soon - not long until he joins mum and dad on that red carpet, eh?

With parents like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, it’s no surprise that Maddox, their eldest adopted son, has decided to take up acting. However, he had a little help landing his first film part from actor dad Brad!

Ten-year-old Maddox has been cast in the lead of Battling Boy, which is based on a graphic novel about the son of a god who leaves home to fight monsters. The movie is being produced by Brad’s production company, Plan B. 

“Maddox lives, eats and breathes movies and comic books, so Brad and Angelina thought he would be perfect for the starring role,” said a source, reports the Daily Star.

Brad bought the film rights before the book was even published back in 2010 – anticipating who he wanted to play the lead character maybe?

We wonder what tips Maddox’s star parents will pass on…
