Brad Pitt, Arnon Milchan, and Angelina Jolie — Audiences first saw Brangelina on the big screen in 'Mr and Mrs. Smith.’ The 2005 action-rom-com stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as an unhappy couple whose marriage perks up only when each discovers the other is an undercover assassin. (The pair wouldn’t confirm their real-life romance until six months later when they announced Jolie was expecting.) In this shot from June 7, 2005, Pitt and Jolie arrive at the premiere in Los Angeles — with producer Arnon Milchan squarely wedging himself between the costars (and stymieing anyone looking to fuel the gossip with posed pictures of the two as a couple).

Angelina Jolie arrives at the premiere on June 7, 2005. She later talked to 'Vogue’ about working with Brad Pitt: “Because of the film, we ended up being brought together to do all these crazy things, and I think we found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realized, 'God, I can’t wait to get to work.’”

Brad Pitt arrives at the premiere on June 7, 2005. In 2008 he told 'Rolling Stone’ that 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith’ was his favorite film of Jolie’s. “We’ve never seen it. I just mean because, you know…six kids. Because I fell in love.”

When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie attended the premiere of their action-romance 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' in Los Angeles on June 7, 2005, they hadn't yet confirmed their relationship — and wouldn't, until Jolie announced her pregnancy six months later. Pitt and his then-estranged-wife Jennifer Aniston were in the midst of divorce proceedings, and he and his co-star were laying low. But looking at the way those two glowed for the cameras, it's clear that love was in the air. (Read more about the backstory here .)
