Not only giving the children a warm family, Angelina Jolie also gives the children the opportunity to work to develop on the future path.

The female star was very happy because her son Pax Thien came to Italy to support her on the set of "Without Blood".

According to People, Angelina Jolie hired her two sons Pax Thien and Maddox to work on her latest film project directed by her. In the latest issue of the magazine, the star said: "We get along at work. The crew is the best when it makes everyone feel like a family. So everything is very natural."

Pax Thien plays the role of assistant director, in place of her mother to communicate with other parts of the film crew. In June, the Vietnamese-born boy appeared on the set, wearing a walkie-talkie, often helping his mother carry things, exchanging work with the crew. "The children work very hard. I am very proud of them because they are independent, individual," Jolie told People.

Without Blood is Jolie's fifth time in the director's chair. The screenplay is based on the novel of the same name by Italian writer Alessandro Baricco. The original story follows Nina, who lost her family at the age of four to war. At the age of 50, she reunites with her benefactor who spared her life and reminisces about childhood tragedies.

Since 2017, Pax has supported her mother on the set of the project First They Killed My Father (2017) in Cambodia. He helps the crew take pictures and behind-the-scenes activities.

At the age of 18, Pax Thien revealed that he was a boy who cared about his mother and younger siblings. Every time he goes out, he always helps his mother carry things and pay attention to her surroundings. In an interview with Indian Vogue in mid-2020, Jolie said about her Vietnamese-born son: "Pax Thien is like the center and source of strength for the family. I am always grateful for the opportunity to be a mother."

Recently, Pax rarely appeared with his mother at major events. He did not participate in Jolie's series of promotional activities for the blockbuster Eternals. Some sources close to the actor said that Pax Thien was busy preparing for life after graduating from high school in June 2021. However, his family did not reveal whether he decided to continue his studies at university.

Pax Thien (birth name: Pham Quang Sang), was born on November 29, 2003 in Ho Chi Minh City. After he was born, Pax was abandoned by his mother - drug addict and unmarried. He was taken to Tam Binh Orphanage Protection Center (HCMC). In January 2007, Angelina Jolie applied for adoption in Vietnam. The actress completed the procedure to bring Pax back to the US to adopt in March of that year. Jolie and Pitt named their child Pax Thien with the meaning "peaceful sky".

Not long after, the first photo of the Vietnamese-born son when he arrived in the US was sold exclusively to People for $2.7 million.

Having a new family, Pax Thien began to learn English to communicate. He quickly integrated with the sisters in the family, especially the oldest brother Maddox - who was adopted by Angelina Jolie in Cambodia.

In a 2013 interview, actress Maleficent revealed that Pax Thien is a reclusive person who does not like being chased by reporters.

He lives emotionally, loves and protects children. When he was a child, the Vietnamese-born boy was praised for always walking behind, quietly paying attention to family members whenever he went out.

Sharing with Vogue, Angelina Jolie admitted that she did not initially intend to adopt Pax Thien because Maddox was Cambodian. But after many years, the female star feels grateful to have a son, Pax Thien.

"Now, Pax Thien has become a source of strength in our lives. I feel very fortunate to be the mother of Maddox, Pax Thien, Zahara. Every day, I feel grateful for that. - Angelina Jolie shared.

As a child, Pax Thien lived a closed life, uncomfortable when disturbed by paparazzi. He usually dresses very simply, wearing a hat to cover his face to avoid the camera.

According to the Daily Mail, at the graduation ceremony in 2021, Pax Thien also did not attend the ceremony because he did not want to be noticed.

Despite her introverted and reserved personality, Pax Thien has completely changed since Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt divorced. He appeared with his mother more, sometimes carrying things, opening the door and leading her across the street.

When the eldest Maddox went to study abroad in Korea (2018), the boy born in 2003 became the breadwinner in the family, serving as a solid support for his mother and younger sisters.
