Evil Has A Beginning-Are You Ready For "Maleficent"?

This Curse Will Last Until the End of Time

It’s no secret that I am a huge fan of any and all villains. In my mind, they’re not evil merely misunderstood.  Now Walt Disney Motion Pictures is bringing to life one of the greatest villains of all time as they bring to life the untold tale of “Maleficent”, opening in theaters nationwide May 30.  "Maleficent" explores the untold story of Disney’s most iconic villain from the classic “Sleeping Beauty" and the elements of her betrayal that ultimately turn her pure heart to stone. Driven by revenge and a fierce desire to protect the moors over which she presides, Maleficent cruelly places an irrevocable curse upon the human king’s newborn infant Aurora. As the child grows, Aurora is caught in the middle of the seething conflict between the forest kingdom she has grown to love and the human kingdom that holds her legacy. Maleficent realizes that Aurora may hold the key to peace in the land and is forced to take drastic actions that will change both worlds forever.  

Last week, while attending the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration, Don Hahn, one of the producers of masterpiece and Elle Fanning who plays Aurora in the classic fairy tale

visited us at the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration at the Disneyland Resort bringing with them a special 8 minute extended trailer of from the new production. Now guests on both coast to the Disney Parks can enjoy this same exclusive sneak peek at Walt Disney Studios “Maleficent” playing daily in RealD 3D at Disney Hollywood Studios in the ABC Sound Studio and out here on the west coast at Disney California Adventure Park.
