Repressed Tigress

Angelina Jolie has revealed that she enjoyed playing an emotionally uncomfortable tiger in Kung Fu Panda 2 because she was ‘hardcore’.

“She is certainly a character that shows a lot of emotional restraint. She's not relaxed. She is somebody that is very good physically, but emotionally is very uncomfortable.”

“Part of her voice and part of her personality is closed in that way. You can imagine she doesn't let herself cry or be hurt. She doesn't talk about how she feels. She's quite hardcore,” she said.

“It was an interesting voice to play with but it wasn't intended to sound a certain way, it just came out that way I think, because she is so repressed.”
