IMAX has revealed their exclusive artwork for Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, the eagerly awaited sequel to 2014’s Maleficent, out in IMAX cinemas across the globe on 18 October 2019, for a limited time only.
Directed by Joachim Rønning from a screenplay co-written by Linda Woolverton, Micah Fitzerman-Blue, and Noah Harpster, the film will once again star Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning as Maleficent and Princess Aurora, respectively, alongside Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville, who also return, and newcomers Michelle Pfeiffer, Ed Skrein, Harris Dickinson, and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
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 (Angelina Jolie) and drove her to curse a baby Princess Aurora (Elle Fanning). 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.
