Angelina Jolie Was Wracked With Nerves As She Prepared To Shoot A Naked Bathtub Scene In Her New Movie By The Sea After Undergoing A Double Mastectomy.
The actress, who initially went under the knife in 2013, directs and stars in the tense drama opposite her husband Brad Pitt, and she admits she had to be strict with herself when it came to cutting or changing parts she felt uncomfortable with.
The 40-year-old actress underwent the preventative procedure after learning she had an 87 per cent chance of developing breast cancer due to a defective BRCA1 gene.
Angelina has bravely discussed the operation and her subsequent surgery to reduce her risk of ovarian cancer earlier this year (15), but when it came to a scene in her new movie By the Sea, she was struck by fear.
"There were lots of scenes I wanted to change or cut," she tells the New York Times. "I realised it was going to be me (naked) in that bathtub. But I told myself, 'Put all of that aside... You can't change or cut this scene because you've had a mastectomy, or because we're married and people are going to analyse this or that. That would be cheating.'"
In the film, Angelina and Brad portray a vacationing couple trying to save its marriage. The actors made the movie while on their own honeymoon in Malta after tying the knot in France in August, 2014.
