NEW YORK CITY, N.Y. --

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt already have six children, but that’s not stopping the couple from looking ahead to another addition to the family.

During an interview with Matt Lauer Thursday morning on NBC’s “Today” show, the actress said she and Brad are considering adopting another child.

“Soon?” Matt asked Angelina as she nodded, confirming his question.

Angelina attempted to skirt further questions about the possible adoption, but noted, “You can’t even start the process until any new children are six months old, to understand how the new family has settled.”

As for the oldest member of the Jolie-Pitt brood, Angelina said six-year-old son Maddox is “the professional big brother” of the family because “he’s done it so many times.”

Angelina went on to note that due to her children’s ages, adding new members to the family is an easy adjustment.

“We have so many children that they’re not really stunned anymore when kids come home,” she told Matt. “They’re all at that great age that they are not threatened. They’re independent. They don’t need Mommy and Daddy all the time.”

Not only are new people a breeze for Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shilo, Vivienne and Knox, but new places are also a joy, according to the actress.

“So far, we’ve moved them a lot, and they like moving,” Angelina said when asked if they would continue to move around the globe.

Angelina may enjoy life on the go, but she did note a constant she needs in her life — partner Brad.

“I met the right person,” she said of the 44-year-old actor. “I don’t like being without him.”
