of course , Jolie is featured front and center as Maleficent in the latestMistress of Evilone - sheet , alongside Fanning as Princess Aurora ( back from the first moving picture ) and Pfeiffer as new plus Queen Ingrith . you could check the bill sticker out in the blank space below .
agree to its synopsis , Mistress of Evilis set"several years"after the originalMaleficent . The puzzle trailerhinted at some tensions between Ingrith and Maleficent in the film right , though it ’s not clear yet why these characters will be at betting odds with one another . That enounce , it ’s possible , but not yet confirmed , that Ingrith is Prince Phillip ’s mother in the subsequence . Phillip , who ’s now play by Harris Dickinson ( after Brenton Thwaites impersonate him in the firstMaleficent ) , is shown proposing to Aurora in the teaser , which means he ’ll finally have to introduce her and her surrogate female parent to his own parents in the sequel .

Indeed , based on the marketing textile free so far , Mistress of Evilwill focus heavily on the battle between Maleficent , Aurora , and Ingrith in the picture show ( whatever its nature ) . At the same timekeeper , there are other characters who could finish up playing key persona in the story here , including Ed Skrein ( Deadpool ) and Chiwetel Ejiofor ( Doctor Strange ) as , reportedly , the sequel ’s villain and a love sake for Maleficent . Either way , it only makes sense forMistress of Evilto focus on the relationship between its three distaff leads , in keeping with its harbinger and the agency its re - orientedSleeping Beautyas a fairy tale about women , first and foremost .
