(CBS/AP) Angelina Jolie is indeed expecting twins, and it was Jack Black who let the news slip with a "Brady Bunch" crack.
Long rumored to have two children by Brad Pitt on the way, Jolie confirmed the news during a side-by-side "Today" show interview with Black, her "Kung Fu Panda" co-star. The two are in Cannes, France, promoting the animated film.
The twins will be the 5th and 6th children for Jolie and Pitt. She didn't volunteer the information until Black dropped the hint, joking that the couple will "have as many as (the) 'Brady Bunch' when you have these."
"It's confirmed?" followed "Today" interviewer Natalie Morales.Photos: Celebrity Baby Watch
"Yeah, yeah, we've confirmed that already," Jolie said. "Well, Jack's just confirmed it actually."
"Is that true?" Black said jokingly.
"Yeah, you did," Jolie replied.
"Sorry," Black said.
Excerpts of the interview will air tonight on "Access Hollywood," with the full interview airing Thursday on NBC's "Today."
The Pitt-Jolie brood's oldest is Maddox, 6, who was adopted by Jolie from Cambodia while she was married to Billy Bob Thornton. She adopted her daughter Zahara, 3, from Africa in 2005.
Pitt became the legal father of the two children in early 2006, changing their last names to Jolie-Pitt.
A few months later, daughter Shiloh was born to Jolie and Pitt amid much media hoopla.
In May of last year, Jolie adopted four-year-old Pax from Vietnam. She had to adopt him as a single mother because Vietnamese law makes it difficult for unmarried couples to adopt. A few months later he was legally added to the brood as a Pitt-Jolie.

For a couple that isnt married, no plans of, due to them stating they would not marry, until it was an option for ALL couples, including ***, marriage is a long ways off to be either hatching or signing papers for 6 kids. When they tire of eachother, or she decides shes really gay after all, thats ALOT of kids in such a short period of time to have to go thru the inevitable Hollywood split. I am suprised that neither has actually heard of this thing most of us call birth control.
What is her claim to fame anyway?
