Elle Fanning aka Princess Aurora. You know the tale, now head inside to find out the truth…
Directed by
Robert Stromberg, the movie explores the untold story of Disney’s most iconic villain and the elements of her betrayal that ultimately turn her pure heart to stone.

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.
