Angelina Jolie tackles one of the fairy tale world’s scariest villains by taking on the title role in Maleficent, an action-adventure film coming to theaters on May 30, 2014. Directed by Robert Stromberg, Jolie’s joined in the cast by Sharlto Copley, Elle Fanning, Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville. And now Disney’s showing off the very first official teaser trailer as well as three new photos with Jolie in full Maleficent mode.
 
The Plot:
 
From Disney comes Maleficent—the untold story of Disney’s most iconic villain from the 1959 classic Sleeping Beauty. A beautiful, pure-hearted young woman, Maleficent has an idyllic life growing up in a peaceable forest kingdom, until one day when an invading army threatens the harmony of the land. Maleficent rises to be the land’s fiercest protector, but she ultimately suffers a ruthless betrayal—an act that begins to turn her pure heart to stone. Bent on revenge, Maleficent faces an epic battle with the invading king’s successor and, as a result, places a curse upon his newborn infant Aurora. As the child grows, Maleficent realizes that Aurora holds the key to peace in the kingdom—and perhaps to Maleficent’s true happiness as well.
