Angelina Jolie brought a very special plus-one to the Governors Awards: her youngest son, Knox Jolie-Pitt. The Oscar winner and the 16-year-old posed together on the red carpet at Hollywood’s Ray Dolby Ballroom on Sunday (November 17).
The Girl, Interrupted actress stunned in a long, gold-and-silver gown, accessorized with diamond earrings and a matching necklace. Meanwhile, Pax looked equally elegant in a tuxedo.

Reacting to the photos of Angelina and Knox, who has grown to be as tall as his mother, people immediately noticed the unmistakable Jolie-Pitt features in his face.
“He hit the genetic jackpot! I honestly see both parents in his features but he will be even more handsome than his dad one day!” one social media user wrote.
While both options are certainly great news, opinions were divided on whether the young man resembled his mom or dad more. “He looks just like her and her brother, James Haven,” a separate user said.

“I can see his granddad Jon Voight,” added an additional commenter.
Angelina and her ex, Brad Pitt, share six children. In addition to Knox Léon, the stars have Knox’s twin sister, Vivienne Marcheline, Maddox Chivan (23), Pax Thien (20), Zahara Marley (19), and Shiloh Nouvel (18).
