The mother of Maddox, 19, Zahara, 16, Pax, 17, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12, also filed to offer proof in support of their minor children testifying at trial.
Another filing from Angelina includes “intent to offer video recording of the deposition,” which is testimony, of Brad, 57.
The Blast was the first to report on the court filings.
The Maleficent actress filed for divorce from Brad in September 2016, citing irreconcilable differences, after two years of marriage and 12 years together.

After the filing, Brad was under investigation for child abuse after he was involved in an incident with their son Maddox while on a private jet.
The actor was never charged in the incident.
While Brad and Angelina were officially divorced in 2019, their upcoming trial is to determine custody of their children and to divide their estate.
Their divorce has been nasty, as Brad has sought joint custody of the minor children, while his ex has requested sole custody.

The insider said: “He’s still desperate for all the ugliness to end, even though it’s like pulling teeth seeing eye to eye with Angelina about virtually anything these days.
“Brad’s big concern in all this is making some sort of peace, for the kids’ sake as well as his and Angelina’s.

“This ugliness has gone on way too long and it’s his greatest wish for them to resolve as much as possible outside of the courtroom.”
The insider continued: “Whatever gets decided by the judge, they’ll be co-raising the kids for the rest of their lives.
“He’s willing to be the bigger person, and it’s a positive sign that he’s spending time with Angie again, for sure.”
