THE eyes of the world were on Sydney as Hollywood’s hottest power couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, wowed the red carpet for the global premiere of Jolie’s directorial debut, Unbroken.
A huge crowd outside the State Theatre cheered the arrival of Jolie and Pitt. The Hollywood power couple wowed them even further when they took time to chat to their Australian fans, happily signing autographs and posing for ‘selfies’on request.

— Universal Pictures (@UniversalPicsAU) November 17, 2014Burns survivor Turia Pitt, war hero Damien Thomlinson and Pink Hope founder Krystal Barter were invited to walk the red carpet alongside Jolie and Pitt and be the first to see the WWII film, which based on the true story of athlete and prisoner-of-war survivor Louis Zamperini.
The local heroes, who have overcome their own horrific challenges and adversity, were given the star treatment as they rubbed shoulders with movie industry royalty.
Paralympian Jacqueline Freney, Cambodian orphanage founder Geraldine Cox and Fred Hollows Foundation founder Gabi Hollows were also among the inspirational guests, who were personally invited by Jolie to be among the first in the world to see her latest project on the big screen.
The film’s stars Jack O’Connell and Japanese singer-turned-actor Miyavi were also in attendance, signing autographs and waving to the thousands of fans who waited along the stretch of Market Street awaiting the arrival of the recently married Brangelina.
The couple flew into Sydney yesterday morning ahead of the premiere of the war drama, which was filmed in various locations in NSW and Queensland.
The film is not due for release in Australia until January 15.
