Soon Angelina Jolie will be seen virtually naked in her latest film “Beowulf” emerging from a lake, dripping gold liquid.

In her transformation for the role, the actress appears to have regained her famous knock-out curves, perhaps with a little digital assistance.

Filmed in a photo-realistic animation style, the release has been described by the Los Angeles Times as a “hyper violent and highly sexualized tale”.

In the film Jolie plays the mother of Grendel the monster, who is the father of all evil from Anglo-Saxon mythology.

She stars alongside British actors Ray Winston, who plays her evil son, and Sir Anthony Hopkins who plays King Hrothgar.
