Venice Film Festival organizers are facing criticism from fans for not allowing a meeting between Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and his new partner, with some accusing them of fearing the event would become too controversial.

Angelina Jolie cut a glamorous figure while attending the Telluride Film Festival in Telluride, Colorado on Sunday, after recently avoiding a run-in with her ex Brad Pitt.

The Tomb Raider actress, 49, wowed in a flowing grey dress with long sleeves, which she paired with pointed-toe heels.

The star — whose ex-husband, 60, made his red carpet debut with girlfriend Ines de Ramon, 34, on Sunday — shielded her eyes with a pair of black sunglasses. 

While at the event she mingled with a number of celebrity pals, including actress Naomi Watts, 55. 

The mom-of-six — who recently broke down in tears amid her divorce war — was seen adorably petting a small dog Naomi carried in a baby wrap. 

Naomi opted for an effortlessly chic look in a sleeveless white tank top and blue jeans. 

Angelina also posed with actress Embeth Davidtz, 59, who looked chic in a long-sleeve top, white pants and white sneakers. 

She also caught up with Pharrell Williams, Danielle Deadwyler, Malcolm Washington, and Pauletta Washington. 

The star is busy promoting her latest film, Maria, where she plays the legendary opera singer Maria Callas.

Her appearance comes after she narrowly missed an awkward reunion with Pitt who arrived in Venice Film Festival just days after she attended her premiere in the city. 

The actor looked every inch the Hollywood heartthrob as he arrived alongside his co-star and friend George Clooney, 63, at the International Film Festival.

The A-listers were pictured looking dapper as they arrived by water taxi ahead of the premiere of their film Wolfs which is screening at the festival on Sunday night.

Angelia’s film – Maria – premiered on Thursday evening after she recently hinted at the heavy emotional toll which her divorce from Brad has taken on her.

The superstar shared that she has been through ‘despair’ and ‘pain.’ 

The former power couple are in the midst of a battle over their French winery, Château Miraval, and custody of their six children.

His arrival came after artistic director Alberto Barbera revealed he and Angelina were strategically scheduled to avoid any chance of running into one another.

He told Vanity Fair: ‘Angelina will be on the first day, on Thursday August 29 and she will leave right after to go to Telluride Film Festival in Colorado.’

‘So Brad will arrive only on Saturday. There is no way that they can cross each other at the Lido.’

It has been reported that neither Brad nor Angelina made the request, but that the event were ‘wise enough to realise’, claimed Page Six.

Meanwhile on Sunday Brad looked dapper as he made his red carpet debut with his glamorous girlfriend Ines – a jewellery designer who he has been dating for around two years – at the premiere of Wolfs at Venice Film Festival.

It was a double-date night as Brad’s long-time buddy George, 63, was at the event with his wife Amal, 46, an international human rights lawyer, who turned heads in a glamorous yellow dress.

Ines showed off her toned figure in a white one-shoulder number that had ruched detailing and was teamed with a silver sequin handbag and statement earrings.

De Ramon, who is also divorced, moved in with Brad in Los Angeles in February this year and the couple have gone from strength to strength since. 

It is Brad’s first serious relationship since his divorce from Angelina.

Brad and Ines were first linked in November 2022 after they were spotted at a Bono concert. 

Angelina split from her film star husband after a disputed incident on a plane in 2016.

She has said in court documents that he assaulted her and some of their six children and poured wine and beer on the family in a rage. He has always denied being violent towards her or the family.

The couple’s split has also affected their six children. Earlier this month their daughter Shiloh, 18, legally dropped her father’s surname.

They are also parents to Maddox, 22, Pax, 20, Zahara, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16.

This comes amid recent claims that Pitt and Jolie’s divorce – which has now dragged on for eight years – is still ongoing as neither of the stars can ‘let it go.’

A source told People ‘their disagreements took over’ in the relationship, adding that things ‘turned nasty and it was not a good situation for anyone.’

‘All the bitterness is partly why the divorce has dragged on for so many years. Neither will let it go. You’d think they would be over it and just settle.’

Another source of recent stress for the actress has been her son Pax’s terrifying bike crash, which left him hospitalized.

Pax was released from ICU earlier this month, after being treated for crashing his electric bike into the back of a car stopped for a red light on Los Feliz Boulevard in Los Angeles on July 29.

He now begins the long road of recovery and physical therapy – and Angelina has been there every step of the way.

Meanwhile Brad reportedly feels completely helpless his son is still refusing to have any contact with him as he recovers.

An insider exclusively told DailyMail.com that Brad also wishes his family dynamic wasn’t divided and that he wasn’t getting ‘radio silence’ about his son’s health.
