The new Angelina Jolie film Maleficent is scheduled to open in the UK this Wednesday and in the US on Friday. To get you ready for for the movie, let’s take a look back at the character as we knew her in the 1959 Disney movie Sleeping Beauty, and a look forward to the new live-action incarnation. Here you see actress Eleanor Audley, who served as a model for the character, and even appeared in costume for the animators. Jolie had to wear the costume a lot more, so several versions were created for the different scenes. Read about them at Buzzfeed.
