The premiere of the documentary Twiggy about the life of the famous model from the sixties also took place at the BFI on Thursday.
Twiggy, whose real name is Lesley Lawson, attended the event in a fuchsia blazer and trousers paired with a white top.
She posed next to film director Sadie Frost, who opted for a black silk dress with a low-cut neckline.
Angelina’s film Maria follows the life of the famous opera singer Maria Callas.
The film opens in the last days of the soprano’s life and looks back on all the triumphs and tragedies along the way.
Callas died of a heart attack at her home in Paris on September 16, 1977. She was 53.
Angelina said roles like Callas happen “once in a lifetime,” adding, “I mean, it’s definitely the most challenging,” Deadline reported.
To play the opera singer, Angelina spent seven months learning six of the late singer’s most famous arias.

Angelina was also excited to work with director Pablo Larraín, saying, “This kind of work is not often asked of me. And if I’m asked, it’s not often with this kind of material and this director, so these things happen once in a lifetime.’
Her experience making the film “was beyond anything I could imagine, and it was a gift to me emotionally,” she said, adding that the role “changed me as a person.” It helped heal a part of me.”
The Mr. and Mrs. Smith actress said it’s hard to explain all the ways the role changed her and healed her.
‘It would be too personal to explain. But from that first day [on set] Not being able to breathe and crying while singing my heart out in La Scala, Milan, those moments changed me.”
“Having the opportunity to combine my two deepest and personal passions, film and opera, has been a long-awaited dream,” Pablo Larraín said in a statement to Variety.
Also at the BFI on Thursday was the premiere of the documentary Twiggy about the life of the famous 60s model

Angelina also serves as executive producer of the Broadway musical adaptation of The Outsiders and her daughter Vivienne, 16, worked as her assistant.
