Jolie is back as the sinister Maleficent, with Elle Fanning also returning as Aurora. And Michelle Pfeiffer is playing Queen Ingrith in the follow-up to the 2014 film.
Joachim Rønning (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) directed.
The full cast also includes Ed Skrein, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Robert Lindsay, Harris Dickinson, Sam Riley, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple and Lesley Manville.
The sequel “picks up several years after Maleficent, in which audiences learned of the events that hardened the heart of Disney’s most notorious villain and drove her to curse a baby Princess Aurora. Maleficent II 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.”
