Angelina Jolie opened up about her deep friendship with Salma Hayek, a bond that blossomed during their collaboration in the Marvel film 'Eternals.'
This cinematic venture not only saw them portray formidable superheroines but also marked the genesis of an extraordinary and remarkably close friendship.
Marvel movies have over the years showcased exceptional superhero teams and friendships, many of which extend beyond the confines of the big screen. Among the actors embodying these super powered characters, Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek have forged a connection that mirrors the incredible friendships we witness in these films.
Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek, each a Hollywood veteran with more than three decades in the film industry, had never worked together on a project until Marvel united them in 'Eternals.'
In 2019, their collaboration on this Marvel production brought them so close that they now consider themselves as sisters. During an interview on the film's promotional tour, Angelina emphasized how 'Eternals' gifted her with one of the most precious relationships of her life, a deep bond with Salma Hayek.
Their friendship extends beyond the screen, and it has led both actresses to describe each other as soul sisters. Salma Hayek expressed this sentiment in an interview with Elle, emphasizing the profound connection they share.
This newfound sisterhood has enriched their lives, allowing them to enjoy shared experiences and cultural traditions. Angelina Jolie, for instance, enthusiastically joined in on Mexican traditions, a dear part of Salma's heritage. An example of this was when Angelina playfully pushed Salma into a birthday cake during the Mexican actress's 55th birthday celebration. The amusing incident was captured in a video shared by Hayek on her Instagram.
In the video, Angelina appeared a bit apprehensive before partaking in this unusual tradition but later found it to be an endearing and fun experience. She even hinted at the possibility of a similar "cake push" during her own birthday on June 4, demonstrating the depth of their enduring friendship.
