Angelina Jolie's father Jon Voight thinks it's "wonderful" the mom of six wants more kids.

"I think that comes from my dad. My dad was a great storyteller and just had this way with kids," Vought told Usmagazine.com at Wednesday's 24: Redemption premiere in NYC.

Jolie is "part of a legacy of my dad ... [they both have] this idea about family," Voight told Us. "She always had this very unusual idea -- and her brother's like that, too. Her brother has this great love for protecting children."

Now that she has the twins, the Changeling star "is very happy," said Voight, with whom Jolie said she is slowly reconciling after years of estrangement. "I saw her before the twins came, and I've never seen her that happy."

Even though he has yet to see Knox and Viv, Voight said he's already toying with what to buy his grandchildren.

"Isn't that a happy thing?" he said. "That's the happiest thing to think about what kids would like, right?"
