This comes as Hayek stars in Angelina Jolie's new drama Without Blood, based on the 2002 book by Alessandro Baricco. She previously praised the Oscar winner, 49, on her directorial skills to PEOPLE, saying, "It was a life-changing experience for me making this film."
"After so many years, to feel that somebody really listened, really saw me, really created a safe space for me, really embraced me, really admired my talent and let me know... I discovered things about myself as an actress. I was so proud of myself. I was doing things I couldn't believe I was doing and how easy it was," she explained at the PEOPLE/Entertainment Weekly suite at the Toronto International Film Festival, where Without Blood premiered.

She further shared that she was "surprised" by how "warm and generous and kind" the Maleficent star was to the actors.
The actress, who costarred with Jolie in the 2021 film Eternals, shared that the two even switched dynamics while on the set of their new film together. She explained, "In [Eternals] I was a little bit of a mother figure to her. In this movie, I felt like she was my motherly figure because she would come to the set and run it like a family."

Earlier this month, the Frida star also celebrated her stepson Augustin "Augie" James on Instagram in honor of his 18th birthday. She shared a series of family photos of the teenager, who is the son of Hayek's longtime husband François-Henri Pinault and supermodel Linda Evangelista.
"Happy 18th bday Augie," Hayek wrote in her caption. "You're officially a full grown up man who just became legal at least in Mexico and France. 😱."
