The 47-year-old actor brought his two oldest sons, Maddox, 9, and Pax, 7, to the set of World War Z, the flick he's filming this summer in Marsa, Malta.

Based on the book of the same name, the project -- set to hit theaters in 2012 -- features Pitt as United Nations employee Gerry Lane.

Hanging out in papa Pitt's trailer for a portion of their visit, Maddox and Pax were able to see Pitt film a shooting scene that featured him running away from zombies. Both kids covered their ears to muffle the noise from the scene's sound effects, but were quickly comforted by a bodyguard on set.

"Brad was very cheerful and happy to have his kids on set," a source told Us Weekly of Pitt, who also serves as one of World War Z's producers. "When Brad finished the scene, he took to the boys to his trailer and looked thrilled to see them. [While walking] he didn't hold their hands -- I think he likes to treat them like big boys!"

Maddox and Pax's set visit is just the latest item in their Maltese summer itinerary.

"They had a lots of fun and played for the entire two hours, laughing and giggling," an eyewitness said the Pitt-Jolie brood, who were joined by a few nannies and unidentified kids for the afternoon of fun.

As Pitt shoots World War Z, the family has been staying in a rented, palatial $11 million mansion in Qrendi, Malta. Filming for the project will move to the United Kingdom in mid-July.

Angelina Jolie put a huge smile on partner Brad Pitt's face as she brought their daughters, Zahara and Shiloh to visit him on the set of his latest movie.

The 36-year-old actress and the girls stayed for an hour and a half with Brad in Valletta in Malta catching up with the actor and checking out the post-apocalyptic set of 'World War Z'.

Angelina and Brad, 47, spent some quality time alone together a few nights previous when they went out to a seafood dinne at the Xara Palace Relais and Chateaux.

Only recently Angelina told OK! Magazine how lucky she is to have Brad in her life.

“I am very lucky with Brad," she said. "He is a real gentleman, but he is also a man's man. He's got the wonderful balance of being an extraordinary, great, loving father and a very, very intelligent man, and physically he's a real man, in all things that it means.”

The 'Girl Interrupted' actress added that she loves being a woman. “I love that I can have children. I love feeling soft, I love being with Brad, I love all the sensitivity and natural emotion.”

Leaving Shiloh and the gang behind, the twosome met up with ten other friends and colleagues for a sumptuous Maltese meal.

As ever, Pitt was "a gentleman" with his love of six years. "He held the door, and pulled out her seat," the insider says, adding that the sat next to each other.

On the menu for the feast? Antipasto of parma ham, salami, Maltese sausage and maltese goat cheese, mussels, pasta with clams, sea urchins and (more!) Maltese sausage, veal with parma ham and sage, plus king prawns and fried calamari.

"They looked relaxed and enjoyed the evening," the source says.

Toward the end of the meal, they were joined by Franco Debono, a local politician, for a quick chat. "I love Malta!" Pitt raved to Debono. "Glad to be here."
