Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie double date – with his parents!

Hollywood couple share the spotlight

Brad Pitt stars in The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie shared the spotlight on Monday night with two VIPs.

No, not Jennifer Lopez and Eva Longoria! (Although those two did make a surprise appearance at the L.A. premiere of The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button.)

But as far as Pitt was concerned, the extra-special guest stars were his parents, Bill and Jane Pitt.

The couple strolled the red carpet with Jolie, who looked stunning in a strapless black dress.

And the actress certainly played dutiful host, declining to chat with some reporters saying, "I have to stay with them."

Pitt, for his part, looked dapper in a bowtie and tux – and still rocking his old-school moustache.

In fact, he said, the entire event was designed to channel old Hollywood glamour.

"It's a movie in the vein of the classics," he told Entertainment Tonight. "[It's a] classic epic, dealing with life and love, and all that fantastic stuff."
