At an intimate party in Soho recently, the designer Erdem Moralıoğlu introduced a screening of Maria (the Pablo Larraín-directed biopic centred around the last days of Maria Callas’s tumultuous life starring Angelina Jolie).

After Maria Callas’ death, aged just 53, many reflected on the life and career of the incredibly talented opera singer as one of great tragedy. Born in the 1920s to Greek immigrants in New York, she had a difficult childhood marked by her father’s infidelity and her parents’ divorce.

Angelina Jolie relished doing something that was terrifying to her by learning how to sing to play opera legend Maria Callas in the biopic 'Maria'.

Maria is now available to watch on Netflix and is released in UK cinemas on January 10, and Angelina Jolie has revealed the "biggest challenge" of the biopic.

Hollywood’s most protracted divorce battle has finally come to an end, but the legal wrangles between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are far from over.
