All the talk was about Angelina Jolie's twins as the star launched Kung-Fu Panda in Cannes.

Confirmation of a fifth and sixth child for Jolie came during a side-by-side interview she did with co-star Jack Black, who had previously let the truth slip.

During a press conference about the film, Jolie confirmed: "Yes, they are twins."

Jolie said that she had not decided where she was likely to give birth, but added: "We are certainly thinking of France."

The animated film centres around Po, a clumsy kung fu fan who works in his family's noodle shop. He is unexpectedly chosen to fulfil an ancient prophecy and join the kung fu world to study alongside his idols, one of whom is Tigress, voiced by Jolie.

She said her eldest three children had seen the film and loved it "which is a huge relief as they are my biggest critics".

When Jolie was asked about the pregnancy, Black joked: "It's actually triplets."

Jolie said she was feeling "great" and was "thrilled" when the movie, which has been described as a love letter to China, came her way, because she knew how special it would be to her children.

Jolie also talked about the earthquake in China, saying: "Right now the process is about seeing what's being done and seeing what appeals need to be made.

"I will be very active, as much as I can be, and as much as China wants and allows the UN to be."
