Since sequels no longer really surprise me I’m going to leave it at that and especially since I really enjoyed the first “Maleficent” film and seeing Jolie in the role. The Walt Disney Pictures “Maleficent Mistress Of Evil” has its first teaser trailer clip and its below for you to peruse on this gloomy Tuesday morning. Take a look.
The Synopsis: A fantasy adventure that 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.

Piercing Ken Thoughts: Though I don’t generally comment on the “teaser” level clips, I will say something here because what we got was a tad longer. Now I mentioned that I enjoyed the first film but was curious on where a sequel to it could go. This looks to be interesting and again Angelina appears to be killing it in the role of the Evil Fairy Queen. What did you think about this clip? Does it spark an interest for you? If you don’t want to answer yet you can do so when the full trailer surfaces. This film open in October, and you can mark it down after enjoying the teaser poster. See you next time.
