Angelina Jolie 'furious' Brad Pitt would 'not allow' Shiloh and Knox to appear in Maleficent 2 as custody war 'rages on', according to UsWeekly.
Together they have Maddox, 16, Pax, 14, Zahara, 13, Shiloh, 12, and 9-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.
Angelina Jolie has been in London shooting Maleficent 2 with Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer.
The 42-year-old beauty wanted to make it a family affair by casting daughter Shiloh and son Knox in the big Disney sequel that sees her playing the complex villain again. Her daughter Vivienne appeared in the first film, which came out in 2014.
But Brad Pitt refused to allow the two children to participate in what has been an ugly and ongoing custody spat stemming from her September 2016 divorce filing.
'He refuses to sign off her plan to include Shiloh and Knox in Maleficent 2,' said the source.
The insider added, 'The kids are being used as pawns.'
