Angelina Jolie Bans Guns to Protect Kids  5/9/07

Angelina Jolie has reportedly banned guns from the set of her new movie Wanted in order to protect her children with Brad Pitt.

Jolie is alleged to have urged staff on the set of the film to shield Maddox, five; Pax Thien, three; Zahara, two, and Shiloh, 11 months, from unnecessary violence, and has also prohibited the kids from playing with replica weapons.

A source tells British newspaper The Sun, "Angelina is protecting them from seeing her making violence look good. It's caused a few chuckles.

"Most of her successful roles have had her waving weapons and getting violent. Staff have been told the kids can't even see props. And toy guns are a complete no-no."
