Oscar and three-time Golden Globe winner Angelina Jolie (Girl, Interrupted, Wanted) and Elle Fanning (The Beguiled, Super 8) reprise their roles as the dark fairy Maleficent and Princess Aurora, respectively, two characters from the studio’s animated classic Sleeping Beauty, whose untold story was brought to life on screen in Maleficent.
Director Joachim Rønning and actress Elle Fanning took to their respective social media accounts to announce the end of filming on the sequel.
Also joining the production are Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee Chiwetel Ejiofor (Doctor Strange, 12 Years a Slave), Ed Skrein (Deadpool, Game of Thrones) and Robert Lindsay (My Family, Wimbledon).
Maleficent II is set for a May 29, 2020 release, so we still have a while to wait until we see Elle and the titular Maleficent join together once more.
