Since the birth of Shiloh Nouvel, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter together, Jolie has been decidedly casual about going back to work. Now however, she will take on her first acting role since the birth - as an animated character in the upcoming DreamWorks production, Kung Fu Panda

Due for release next May, Jolie will play the role of Tigress who is responsible for teaching martial arts to Po the Panda, voiced by Jack Black. This will be Black’s and Jolie’s second animated feature together since Shark Tale two years ago.

What’s next for Jolie? Catch her playing opposite Robert De Niro and Matt Damon in this December’s flick, The Good Shepherd.
