Brad & Ange team up again

Brangelina have started shooting their first movie together since they steamed up the screen in Mr & Mrs Smith.

Angelina Jolie is starring alongside partner Brad Pitt in drama By the Sea, which she is also writing and directing.

A beach on the island of Gozo in Malta was closed to the public for filming on Sunday, according to The Hollywood Reporter and The Malta Independent, with the shoot set to continue until early November.

Jolie's last directorial effort, the World War II drama Unbroken, was filmed around Australia.

The Hollywood stars, who have six children, have been together since working on 2005's Mr & Mrs Smith and became engaged in 2012.
