The Hollywood star, known for her iconic roles in action films and dramas, said the vocal training and immersion in opera had a profound impact on her both personally and professionally. For months, Jolie worked tirelessly with singing coaches, Italian language instructors, and opera experts to prepare for her role as the famed soprano during the final years of her life in Paris.<\/p>\n<div class=\"39iwR1CV\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/470579594_122132756426383119_2294728779820845195_n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/angelina-jolie-as-maria-callas-in-maria-5.jpg\" alt=\"Does Angelina Jolie Actually Sing In Maria?\" width=\"1886\" height=\"943\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jolie admitted that before taking on the role, she had never sung in public, and the process of vocal training opened up emotional pathways she hadn\u2019t anticipated. \u201cIt\u2019s very freeing,\u201d she explained, emphasizing how confronting the deep emotions and physicality of opera helped her release personal barriers. \u201cI think we don\u2019t realise how much our voice, how much our body holds,\u201d she continued. \u201cWhatever we\u2019ve been through in life, whatever we fear, whatever it is we hold \u2013 whether we know it or not, it affects our sound.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"NBnSghCo\"><\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IXxgiGYHQqo?si=tc9VRd70LNUA_7R9\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-origwidth=\"560\" data-origheight=\"315\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Her transformation, both vocal and emotional, was evident as she played Callas, a figure known for both her unparalleled musical talent and complex personal life. Jolie described the experience of singing opera as a gift and encouraged others to try it, stating, \u201cI\u2019m encouraging everyone. Everybody should do it.\u201d She also reflected on how Callas viewed opera not just as an elitist art form but as something meant to connect with everyone, a philosophy the film seeks to embody.<\/p>\n<p>The film\u2019s director, Pablo Larra\u00edn, echoed this sentiment, aiming to break the elitist stigma surrounding opera and bring its beauty to a wider audience. The biopic culminates in a dramatic and emotional re-creation of Callas\u2019 final performance, which also marked the end of Jolie\u2019s intense, immersive portrayal of the legendary diva.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Angelina Jolie Opens Up About How Learning to Sing for Maria Callas Biopic Changed Her Life and Voice In a candid interview with Classic FM, Angelina Jolie revealed how learning &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[474],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","hentry","category-entertainment","post_format-post-format-video"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12590"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12590\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12593,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12590\/revisions\/12593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news4you.fit\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
