After many famous roles, from action to romance, sometimes fantasy and sometimes reality, Angelina Jolie decided to renew herself with the role of the most cruel witch in Walt Disney’s fairy tale world – Maleficent.
After the movie The Tourist starring with Johnny Depp in 2010, Angelina Jolie completely “disappeared” from the screen.
Disney’s invitation was accepted by her before the movie Maleficent had even found a director. Even at a time when the project was in crisis due to staff replacement, she still affirmed that she would definitely participate.
Maleficent: Another perspective
There are many reasons to explain why Maleficent became a global craze even before its release.
The image of the evil fairy or the 13th midwife cursing the princess who was stabbed to death by a thorn while spinning yarn is familiar in two versions of the fairy tale written by Charles Perrault and the Brothers Grimm, but it was not until the animated film.
In Maleficent, Angelina Jolie’s character came out of her imagination with full vividness, not only in appearance and personality but also in a past that no one has ever discovered.
Angelina Jolie said that from a young age she felt an unforgettable impression on the witch Maleficent, not only because of fear but also because of something vague and unexplained.
Witches and princesses
Baby Vivienne Jolie-Pitt plays the young princess
Elle Fanning plays the adult princess
Viewers of Maleficent are treated to many special treats while enjoying the movie.
Baby Viv came to Maleficent, playing the role of young Princess Aurora was a reluctant choice.
With Elle Fanning, the actress who plays Princess Aurora as an adult, Angelina brings different feelings.
There is a wonderful man
If in the movie, the witch Maleficent encountered many painful betrayals and lived in loneliness and cold, then fortunately, in real life Angelina Jolie has an extremely happy life.
Few people know that bringing the cartoon Maleficent back this time has involved Brad as a consultant since 2009. And after that, Angelina received a lot of help from her partner during her busy time.
As someone who rarely shares personal matters, especially when she got married to Brad Pitt and then had 6 children, after Maleficent, Angelina had to admit that she had such a wonderful man.
Since the age of 30, success has not come to Angelina Jolie so quickly, but happiness has become more and more abundant.
