The bond between Maleficent and Aurora proves that blood isn't the only thing that makes a family.
Directed by Joachim Rønning, Mistress of Evil picks up five years after the original film. The story centers on the complicated bond between Maleficent (Angelina Jolie) and Princess Aurora (Elle Fanning). What starts as a celebration of Aurora’s upcoming marriage to Prince Phillip quickly devolves into a war between the humans of Ulstead and the magical creatures of the Moors.
The 2019 sequel to Disney's live-action reimagining of the Sleeping Beauty story, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil , continues the journey of the misunderstood dark fae. While the first film focused on the origins of Maleficent’s bitterness and her eventual redemption through her love for Aurora, the sequel expands the lore, introducing new worlds, new threats, and a deeper exploration of the bonds between mothers and daughters.
