Pax Jolie Pitt made a surprise appearance at one of the year's biggest film festivals. The 22-year-old son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt attended the Sundance Film Festival, one of the most famous festivals and celebrity events in the country.
Pax attended Sundance in support of the film "Self-Custody." In photos shared online, Pax attended a party for the film and took photos alongside the film's director, Garrett Patten, and producer, Fernando Ferro.

"Self-Custody" is a short and a thriller, starring Henry Cejudo, Adrian Grenier, and Adley Pearl Jones. This marks the last year when the festival will be hosted in its home of Utah, with it moving to Boulder, Colorado.

While it's unknown if Pax is connected to "Self-Custody," he appears to have an interest in the behind-the-scenes process of filmmaking, serving as a still photographer for Jolie's film "First They Killed My Father," which she directed in 2017.
He also voiced the character of Yoo in "Kung Fu Panda 3" and had a cameo in the film "Maleficent." According to E! News, Pax appears to be working in film production.
Pax's siblings and their interest in the arts

It seems like they're interested in the arts, with Maddox having several production roles under his belt, and Vivienne working alongside her mother on the Broadway play "The Outsiders." She memorably accompanied her mom to the Tony Awards, with the two wearing matching outfits.
