Angelina Jolie's mixing business with family life on her next film, as two more of her kids have reportedly joined her upcoming project, "Maleficent."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Zahara and Pax Jolie-Pitt are ready to make their big screen debuts alongside their younger sister, Vivienne, who's already been cast in the Disney film.

Vivienne, 4, will play a toddler version of Elle Fanning's Princess Aurora, who, as the fairy tale goes, is cursed by Jolie's evil Maleficent. This live-action version of the "Sleeping Beauty" story will dig into Maleficent's background and why she commits her evil acts.

It's unclear what roles Zahara, 7, and Pax, 8, will play in the movie, but THR notes that they will be non-speaking.

Their sister Shiloh, meanwhile, already has a leg up on them as she had a role as a baby in dad Brad Pitt's movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."

Shiloh was reportedly also supposed to be in "Maleficent," Us Weekly says, but she was apparently "bored and not in the mood during the day her part was supposed to happen, so she ended up not being in the film."
