Brad is starring in and producing the movie, in which he plays Jackie Cogan, a mob enforcer who is investigating a heist from a mob protected poker game.

His slick hair do and all black outfit have been the same every day of shooting, but over the weekend Brad was back to his natural look when he was spotted out with all six of his children and Angelina Jolie.

With Vivienne in her arms, Angelina got off the private jet that brought the family to the Big Easy where they're joining the kids' dad Brad Pitt.  He's been there the last two weeks, shooting his next film, Cogan's Trade.

As the Jolie-Pitt kids are getting a little older, their individual personalities are starting to show through. Oldest son Maddox, 9, who has been to several New Orleans Saints games with dad Brad, was wearing a jersey from his favorite team. Pax, 7, carried his own laptop bag!
