Angelina Jolie revealed how she releases her own ‘private pain’ through song as she alluded to her split from ex husband Brad Pitt.

The actress, 49, split from her film star husband after a disputed incident on a plane in 2016.

In her latest cover shoot for Vogue Mexico’s December edition, the actress, 49, discussed how she used her upcoming role as opera singer Maria Callas in a new biopic to deal with the pain.

Speaking about her role, she explained how opera made her visit the ‘deeper parts of myself’ and life as she learned to ‘access a new part of herself’ to sing.

‘I had to take a deep breath and let it all out, and in between that, I also had to let out my real voice… which I also didn’t really have, because it’s where I carried my private pain, my gentleness, and a lot of things that I felt I didn’t own, that I didn’t feel safe letting out, it also involved owning something that I didn’t want to deal with,’ she said.

‘There’s something that happens in these beautiful pieces of music that you can’t sing unless you can access a certain part of yourself.’

Angelina has said in court documents that Brad ᴀssaulted her and some of their six children and poured wine and beer on the family in a rage. He has always denied being violent towards her or the family.

She explained: ‘I hadn’t really understood how much we hold in our bodies, how much we carry throughout life and how all of that changes and affects our sound and our voice.

‘And I don’t just mean the audible part of our voice, but our true voice: the way we communicate with each other.’

Angelia, who spent six months learning how to sing for the film, looked incredible as she posed for a series of sultry snaps for the accompanying pH๏τoshoot.

Changing into second outfit, she opted for a sophisticated, plunging square neck dress and later added a brown fur coat.

Maria – which has already generated Oscars buzz following the trailer’s release – is slated for a limited theatrical release in the United States on November 27 – before dropping on Netflix on December 11.

The movie follows the life of famed opera singer Maria Callas, with the first trailer being released last week.

The film opens in the last days of the soprano’s life and looks back on all the triumphs and tragedies along the way.
