Walt Disney Pitcures
You had us at Michelle Pfeiffer.
Angelina Jolie, those sharp cheekbones and her wickedly delicious laugh are back in the first trailer for "Maleficent" sequel, "Mistress of Evil."
Picking up several years after the 2014 live-action film focusing on the misunderstood "Sleeping Beauty" baddie, the sneak peek -- set to the tune of "Season of the Witch" -- introduces a new foe in the form of Michelle Pfeiffer.
Joining them and returning stars Elle Fanning and Sam Riley for the sequel are Chiwetel Ejiofor, Harris Dickinson and Ed Skrein. Also returning are Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple and Lesley Manville, who will once again play Aurora's fairy godmothers.
The movie hits theaters October 18, 2019 -- check out the official synopsis below:
"Maleficent: Mistress of Evil" is a fantasy adventure that picks up several years after "Maleficent," in which audiences learned of the events that hardened the heart of Disney's most notorious villain and drove her to curse a baby Princess Aurora. The film continues to explore the complex relationship between the horned fairy and the soon to be Queen as they form new alliances and face new adversaries in their struggle to protect the moors and the magical creatures that reside within.
Joachim Rønning ("Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales") directs.
