Angelina Jolie says Maleficent will have her horned costume


27 March 2012

Oscar winning actress Angelina Jolie who will take on the role of Disney's evil queen Maleficent has shared some details about the upcoming big screen adaptation.

The In the Land of Blood and Honey writer and director tells Entertainment Weekly "It's not anti-princess, but it's the first time they're looking at this epic woman, I hope in the end you see a woman who is capable of being many things, and just because she protects herself and is aggressive, it doesn't mean she can't have other warmer qualities. You have to figure out the puzzle of what she is."

While Maleficent's portrayal in Sleeping Beauty was villainous, Jolie believes "there will be something that's good for young girls" in the film version that will be written by Alice in Wonderland's Linda Woolverton, it also marks the directorial debut of Robert Stromberg and Jolie offered a glimpse into what audiences can expect from Maleficent's signature costume adding "We're still figuring out the look, we're experimenting with different things. But the horns are the horns - you can't deny them. You have to have horns."

Elle Fanning is currently rumoured for the role of the young princess Aurora who can currently be seen in Cameron Crowe's We Bought a Zoo with Avengers Assemble babe Scarlett Johansson.
