Maleficent: Mistress of Evil

Maleficent: Mistress of Evil is a 2019 American fantasy film and a sequel to Maleficent (2014), itself a live-action adaptation of Walt Disney's 1959 animated film Sleeping Beauty. Produced by Walt Disney Pictures and Roth/Kirschenbaum Films, it is the second installment in the Maleficent film series. The film was directed by Joachim Rønning and written by Linda Woolverton, Micah Fitzerman-Blue, and Noah Harpster. Angelina Jolie, Elle Fanning, Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville reprise their roles from the first film, with Chiwetel Ejiofor, Harris Dickinson (replacing Brenton Thwaites), Ed Skrein, and Michelle Pfeiffer. Set five years after the first film, the film sees Maleficent face the neighboring kingdom's manipulated perception of herself as a villain, in addition to a subplot of the rise of an endangered, powerful fairy race of the Dark Fey.
