Angelina Jolie apepars on the Today show where she was interviewed by Matt Lauer at NBC Studios in New York City on Thursday.
In the interview, Angelina talked about her latest movie Changeling, saying that “It’s an amazing story, because it’s a true story.”
When asked if there would ever be a place their family would settle down in, Angelina talked about how her children like moving from one place to another.
Angelina also confirmed she is planning to adopt again! Asked how soon, she said, “It depends…you can’t even start the process until any new children are six-months-old. It’s a smart thing…to understand when to bring another child in.” (Twins Knox and Vivienne are 3-months-old.)

We've been hearing whispers of this for quite some time now, but when Angelina Jolie visited the Today show, she confirmed that she and Brad Pitt are going to adopt again. When asked if the new addition to the family would be in the near future, she nodded. Here's what Angelina had to say.
On adopting:
"You can't even start the process until any new children are six months old, to understand how the new family has settled."
On her first child:
Six-year-old son Maddox is "the professional big brother" of the family because "he's done it so many times."
On how the kids react to new brothers and sisters:
"We have so many children that they're not really stunned anymore when kids come home. They're all at that great age that they are not threatened. They're independent. They don't need Mommy and Daddy all the time."
On the family's nomadic lifestyle:
" The children will probably dictate. We talk about one day, they'll probably want to stay in one place for a very long time, as they start to get certain friends," Jolie says, "So far we've just moved them a lot. They like packing their bags before the next adventure, and like making new friends wherever we go.
I think...we'd like to maintain that...we'd like them to be those kind of adults, where they can find home wherever they are in the world, where they can find friends wherever they are in the world."
On Brad:
"I met the right person," she said of the 44-year-old actor. "I don't like being without him."

Angelina caused some controversy once today already chatting on The Today Show about adding more kids to their family, but that's not the only Jolie press. The actress recently conducted an interview with the NY Times in which she talked candidly about falling in love with Brad and what her children think about Mom and Dad. Here are highlights:
* On wanting them to see Mr and Mrs Smith: “Not a lot of people get to see a movie where their parents fell in love.”
* On what the kids think of Mom and Dad: “What’s going to be funny is when they think Mom and Dad are a little bit cool because right now, we’re not cool Mom and Dad. . .Even video games, you know, it’s: ‘Mom, you can’t play this. You won’t know how.’ Oh, they all think I can’t do anything, that I’m just there to snuggle with. But the other day Madd said, ‘Can you do a cartwheel?’ And I said, ‘Yeah, I can.’ And he was like, ‘Wow, Mom.’ And I thought: ‘Oh, yeah. I can do some things. You wait. You’ll find out. I’m capable.’ ”
* On worrying about Maddox and the Internet: “[He will] look up my name and see some kind of sexy pictures or read a story about himself that isn’t true. There’s a lot we’re going to have to explain to them about how public their family is.”
* On how she decides to take a job: “Who’s in school at that time? How can I be sure I don’t do too many long hours? Can the three youngest be on the set every day? As long as I can still be with my family, it’s fun. But I only want to do that, and I’m not looking for anything else.”
* On seeing her mother in the Changeling character: “My mom, she was a very, very soft woman. It was hard for her to yell, or even curse. But when it came to fighting for her kids, she found a strength she didn’t always know she had. And there’s a part of Christine that I connected to her. I kept pictures of my mom in the little purses” that her character carries in the movie."
