Brad and Angelina's 4-year-old: Top Money Earner for New Film Maleficent, Watch Video
Vivienne Jolie-Pitt has earned quite the sizable salary for her age, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
The 4-year-old daughter of megastars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt ranked in an remarkable $3,000 a week for her work alongside her actress mother in the upcoming live-action fairy tale film Maleficent, according to a court document of the minor's contract, which was acquired by TMZ.
The young Jolie-Pitt apparently earned a per diem of $60 a day as well.
Maleficent, directed by Robert Stromberg, is a reworking of the timeless classic Sleeping Beauty. Disney billed it as the "untold story" of the villain from the Academy Award-winning 1959 Disney classic.
Take a look at classic scenes from Disney's Sleeping Beauty here:
Angelina Jolie takes on the role of the evil fairy Maleficent. Similar to Sleeping Beauty, the evil fairy casts a spell on the beautiful young princess, which causes her to fall into a 100-year-long sleep. The curse of the deep sleep can only be broken by a prince.
"The film reveals the events that hardened her heart and drove her to curse the baby, Aurora," according to Disney.
Elle Fanning plays Princess Aurora and Vivienne plays the princess when she's much younger.
It was announced by Disney in August 2012 that young Vivienne had been cast as the child version of Elle Fanning's character in the film.
Vivienne's older siblings, 8-year-old brother Pax and 7-year-old sister Zahara, were also hired for walk-on roles for the christening scene, which is the moment when Maleficent curses baby Aurora, causing her to fall into a magical slumber that can only be broken by a kiss from her true love.
Maleficent is slated to come to theaters in March 2014.
