Angelina Jolie will be returning to the big screen to reprise one of her most villainous roles in ‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’, the first official teaser for which has been released by Disney.

Jolie and Elle Fanning reprise their roles as the dark fairy Maleficent and Princess Aurora, respectively. These two characters from the studios animated classic ‘Sleeping Beauty’ had their untold story brought to life on screen in 2014's Maleficent.

Now, this fantasy adventure 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.

While the trailer highlights many returning characters, it also introduces new ones. Michelle Pfieffer will be joining the cast this time around as Queen Ingrith giving a tough competition to Jolie.

‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’ arrives in cinemas on October 18, 2019.
