Disney Banks on Bad with New Teaser for ‘Maleficent: Mistress of Evil’

By Sara Roncero-MenendezMay 14, 2019

Disney has done very little experimenting with their live-action remakes. A small plot tweak in Dumbo, some more songs in Beauty and the Beast, more interactions between the prince and Cinderella in Cinderella, and so on. “Why mess with success?” you can almost hear the Disney executive say. The only big, bold re-interpretation came from 2014’s Maleficent, which looked at the Sleeping Beauty tale from the prospective of the sorceress and villain of the story. It goes into more detail about Maleficent’s origin and how she secretly helped take care of the princess she herself damned. It boosted the live-action and gave Disney more ncentive to push the Disney Villains line. Now, five years later, we’re back to the story again with Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.

Here’s the official synopsis for the film:

“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.

From what we see in the trailer, Maleficent is working with Aurora and Philip in order to right some wrongs and tackle injustices against magical creatures, which is awesome. Eventually, it looks like they will go to war with a new kingdom, new battle suit and all for our winged protagonist. Wealso  see Michelle Pfeiffer as Queen Ingrith and Harris Dickinson as Prince Phillip in the trailer. Of note, we have Chiwetel Ejiofor, Ed Skrein, and Robert Lindsay in currently unnamed roles set to appear as well.

Maleficent: Mistress of Evil premieres in theaters on October 18, 2019.

A reporter by trade, Sara is a lover of horror, sci-fi, and all things pop culture. From indies to classics to even the strangest schlock, all movies and TV shows are fair game. She believes Batman is the most fascinating superhero, and that Silent Hill is one of the best horror franchises ever made (as long as you don't count the movies). Fun Fact: The only movie Sara will not rewatch is The Room -- once was more than enough.
