Angelina Jolie has recently confirmed that she is all set to return to acting with the 'Maleficent' sequel. In an interview with the Deadline, the 42-year-old actress, who recently directed her debut film 'First They Killed My Father,' said, "We have been working on the script, and this is going to be a really strong sequel."

"I am now the breadwinner for the family, so it's time," she added.

Previously, the 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith' star told The Hollywood Reporter that she took a break from acting because of her "family situation."

"When I feel it's time for me to go back to work, I'll be able to go back to work," she said. "I've been needed at home. I hope [to work again] in the months to come."

However, the couple share six children together.
