The actress, 49 – who has fought in court with her ex and children’s father Brad Pitt, 60, over their Chateau Miraval winery – looked fashionable in a black jacket over a white blouse with a matching long black skirt .
The Eternals star wore black boots as she loaded her luggage into the trunk of a chauffeur-driven black SUV.
Angelina kept her accessories simple: she wore dark sunglasses and a thin belt, along with some small gold earrings.
The Oscar winner’s long, dark hair was styled straight and she wore natural-looking makeup with a soft peach lip.

Vivienne, one of Angelina’s six children with Brad Pitt, stayed close to her A-list mother as they prepared to head from the airport to the hotel.
The teen appeared to follow her mother’s low-key example, wearing a beige T-shirt with high-waisted white jeans and sneakers.
The mother-daughter duo have a big weekend ahead of them as The Outsiders, the musical they produced based on the popular SE Hinton novel, is up for several awards at Sunday’s Tonys.
The musical focuses on a group of 1960s teenagers in Tulsa, OK, who fight for survival and a sense of purpose.
The show received 12 Tony nominations, including Best New Musical.
Vivienne joined the production as a volunteer assistant and her mother later joined the project as a producer.
‘There are artists who think about themselves and there are artists who just advocate for everyone, [Vivienne’s] that one,” the proud mom said AP. “She’s the one who supports everyone and that’s nice.”
And while you’re talking Deadline Earlier this month, Jolie recalled how both she and Vivienne became involved in the Broadway production. ‘My daughter Viv loves theatre.’
Mother and daughter are in town to support The Outsiders, which has twelve Tony nominations, including Best New Musical

“She appreciates all the theater, but she definitely knows what she feels close to and what she responds to. She went to see The Outsiders in La Jolla about five times and told me about it, and I had read the book and I had seen the movie years ago.”
Angelina then saw the project with her daughter and noted the effect it had on Vivienne, adding, “…I learned what was important to her and why it connected so deeply with her.”
The mother-daughter duo were soon contacted by producers and asked to share their thoughts on the production. “So Viv and I sat down and wrote down what we liked, what we were curious about.”
“And they responded to our notes. For me it was a moment to learn more about Viv, not for me to become a producer.’
The actress added: “I think at some point it felt like the team felt like we were adding something, so I really just wanted to be supportive and listen and share my thoughts where it was helpful .’
‘Most of the time I just sat and listened. I have so much respect for Danya and her work,” she said, referring to director Danya Taymor.
Vivienne worked as a volunteer assistant on the production of The Outsiders. Jolie later acted as producer (pictured in New York in April 2024)
“And as a director, I’ve learned so much from watching her, how she makes sure the artists doing such extraordinary work are heard and supported.”
Jolie revealed her daughter was “there the whole time” and Taymor also applauded the teen for “giving me the most amazing notes.”
Jolie will be a presenter at Sunday’s ceremony, along with Wicked’s Cynthia Erivo and The Who’s Pete Townshend.
The Tonys air live Sunday at 8 PM Eastern Time on CBS and Paramount+.
