Brangelina's eldest son Maddox made his film premier debut last week. But the lucky eight-year-old didn't get to see the latest Disney, oh no, he was treated to the premiere of a film about Nelson Mandela.

Film star couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have obviously decided to start educating their brood about the world early - come on it's hardly likely they couldn't find a babysitter.

Maddox turned up in a gold hat and fashionable scarf before the world's media at the Beverly Hills premiere of Invictus. His parent's friends Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman have lead roles in the film but the storyline is probably a little too political for your average eight year old.

Invictus tells the true story of the former South African president's life during the 1995 rugby World Cup and how he used the sport to bring people together after apartheid. Freeman, 72, plays the great Mandela, while Damon, 39, is rugby team captain Francois Pienaar. Brangelina seemingly decided their son was old enough for the PG-13 rated film, we wonder what Maddox thought of it though.
