‘Maleficent’ sneak peek released with new footage !

A new Maleficent preview aired on Disney Channel on Friday evening and offered some new clips from the live-action film starring Angelina Jolie.

Interestingly, this new Maleficent preview includes clips from the Disney animated film Sleeping Beauty where the titular villain first made her on-screen debut. By including clips from the 1959 film, young viewers should instantly recognize who the villain is.
Princess Aurora and Maleficent feature heavily in this new preview, and one scene shows the two’s first meeting when the former is a baby. We also get a glimpse of the film’s fairies. These new shots of the villain make us realize one thing: The only thing sharper than Maleficent’s personality is her jaw line.

             

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.
