Jolie said she would welcome the chance to work with a Chinese director, but she hoped her own career would shift from just acting to working behind the camera.

She said she is an admirer of the work of director Ang Lee. His work and the actors in his films are the ones she is most familiar with.

"In the future, I will be doing less acting and more directing if I'm fortunate enough to have that career," she said.

Her directing credits include "In the Land of Blood and Honey" about the Bosnian war.

Jolie said her children were a little frightened when they saw her dressed up for her role in "Maleficent."

But she said she hoped to play the character again and admitted taking home a souvenir of the film — the curly, black horns from her costume.

Jolie turns 39 today, but says she doesn't know how she will spend her birthday because Pitt and the children usually plan a surprise. As for her birthday wish, she said: "like every mother my wish every birthday is for my children to stay healthy and for my family to remain healthy, so I will continue that."
