Fans were surprised after seeing recent photos of 15 year old Knox Jolie Pitt out with his mom, Angelina Jolie. Many said the resemblance to his father was so strong it made them do a double take, almost like seeing a younger version of Brad Pitt walking around in real life.
Some people even joked that it looked like a scene from The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, with Pitt appearing to age in reverse. Knox, the fraternal twin of Vivienne, is one of three biological children shared by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, and fans are now openly debating which parent he favors more.
Even though Jolie and Pitt split eight years ago and continue dealing with a complicated divorce, they remain proud parents to their six children. Before their relationship, Jolie had already adopted Maddox from Cambodia and Zahara from Ethiopia, building a family long before the twins arrived.
Jolie once spoke about her kids watching the film where she met Pitt, saying, “Not a lot of people get to see a movie where their parents fell in love.” Their first biological child, Shiloh, was born in 2006, followed by Pax’s adoption in 2007, then twins Knox and Vivienne in 2008.
Back in 2011, Jolie spoke about Knox as a young child and said, “Knox is a lot like Brad, emotionally and physically.” Over the years, that comparison has only grown stronger, especially as Knox has gotten older and started to resemble his father even more.
While some of the children have chosen to drop Pitt’s last name, Knox has kept it, making him the only biological child of the former couple to do so. Fans continue to notice how closely he mirrors Pitt’s looks, from his smile to his facial structure.
In 2019, Knox was spotted with his siblings selling organic dog treats at a park to support charity. A small table, paper bags, and a handwritten sign caught attention, and photos of the moment quickly made their way across social media.
An actress who shared the photos online said she felt called to tell the story, writing, “I’m not sure why God chose me to tell this story, but I have to fulfill my calling.” The money raised went to Hope for Paws, a Los Angeles based animal rescue group.
More recently, in July 2024, Knox was photographed leaving a pet store with his mom, arms full of dog toys and supplies. Now taller than Jolie, he wore casual athletic clothes, and fans once again focused on how much he has grown.
Online reactions were split, with some saying Knox looks just like Angelina, while others insisted he is a carbon copy of Brad. One person summed it up by saying he looks like the perfect mix of both parents, which seems to be where most people landed.
On the same day Knox was seen shopping with his mom, Pitt was photographed elsewhere attending the British Grand Prix with his girlfriend, Ines de Ramon. The timing only added to the buzz surrounding the family and their very recognizable son.
