Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie's Great Collaborations From Making Wine to 'Mr and Mrs. Smith'

Well, it happened. After nearly a decade of dating, two years of engagement, and endless speculation over the state of their union, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie finally got married. The couple said their vows in a private ceremony in France over the weekend, in front of friends and family members that included all six of their children.

While Pitt and Jolie have certainly not shied away from commitment over their time together, raising a family and professing their love, marriage is certainly a huge step. Yet although this latest change may be the biggest bond between the couple, it's far from their only collaboration; read on for 10 more times Pitt and Jolie created something of their very own.

'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'

Ah, the movie that started it all. The 2005 action film was the film that brought Pitt and Jolie together, and what it lacked in intelligence, it made up for in the two actors’ chemistry. Propelled by rumors of the stars’ romance, Smith made nearly $450 million at the box office.

Their Kids

As you may have heard once or twice, the couple has six kids: Maddox, 13; Pax, 10; Zahara, 9; Shiloh, 8; and twins Knox and Vivienne, 6. All of the children were involved in their parents’ wedding, some as ring bearers, others as flower girls.

'By the Sea'

In July, it was announced that Jolie and Pitt would be making a new movie together, their first co-starring roles since Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Titled By the Sea, the drama will be directed and written by Jolie and produced by both stars, but more importantly, it might feature “crazy sex scenes” between the two.
