Disney has released new posters for the upcoming "Maleficent" film starring Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning.
The posters include new images for the IMAX version of the movie. Along with Jolie and Fanning, the "Sleeping Beauty" remake stars Juno Temple, Sharlto Copley, Brenton Thwaites, Peter Capaldi, Miranda Richardson and Imelda Staunton.
"Maleficent" will be released to theaters on May 30. Check out Disney's official film synopsis and the trailer for the upcoming reboot below:
"'Maleficent' is 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."
In other "Maleficent" news, Jolie recently revealed why she believes audiences should see the "Sleeping Beauty" remake.
"I think, in Disney tradition, it's got a world that you've never seen before, stunning creatures, a lot of really cool action and it is just wicked fun," Jolie told the Disney Movie Surfers.
Jolie also revealed to the Movie Surfers who her favorite character in the film is besides her title character.
"[Diaval] is a bird and he is everybody's fantasy best friend," the actress said. "[Maleficnet] can turn Diaval into anything she wants including a man, but he always morphs into something that's strangely bird-like. He's a great wingman."
