For Jolie, acting to take backseat

Angelina Jolie says acting is going to take a "backseat" for her as she want to continue exploring directing and humanitarian work.

"It's going to take more of a backseat," femalefirst.co.uk. quoted the actress as saying.

Jolie will be seen in "Maleficent" to be released on May 28, a movie that will see her take on the title role.

She was last seen on the big screen after "The Tourist" (2010) however, she lent her voice to "Kung Fu Panda 2" (2011).

"I've had a wonderful career. I'm sure there will be a few more films, but I am happy that I am able to be more selective and have fun with roles like this. But I would like to focus more on writing and directing and above all, I would like to focus more on my work with the UN and the PSBI (Pearl S Buck International)," said the actress.
