The Hollywood star gets again, in 'Maleficent: Master of evil', in the skin of the villain of 'Sleeping Beauty'

Five years after Maleficent swept the world box office, Angelina Jolie (Los Angeles, 1975) returns to put on the horns and wings of the villain from the story of Sleeping Beauty in Maleficent: master of evil . In this film directed by Joachim Rønning ( Kon-Tiki , Pirates of the Caribbean: Vengeance of Salaza r) we discover that Aurora (Elle Fanning) has become Queen of the Marshlands while planning her wedding with Prince Phillip (Brenton Thwaites). But the mother of her fiance (Michelle Pfeiffer) has Maleficent in her sights for fear of her power and that of her fairy and fantasy world.

What message do you think this story conveys? In this case there is a set of complex characters, something that does not always happen in choral stories. All characters learn from each other, move forward and grow together. In the first movie I liked that we challenged the concept that Maleficent was a villain, we wondered why and we responded to it by deepening her personality. There are those who are not born with that armor, but something happens in their lives that makes them lose confidence and security and end up protecting themselves in some way. On this occasion, we question that, despite wanting to be tender and cover their horns, Maleficent is a fighter. The film throws precious messages on how to discover our true identity or that we must accept our neighbor. And, my favorite, that the family is not made of blood. Do you think the film will inspire many viewers? I think it can help identify where darkness lies in the world. Here we see how the evil master of the title is not so much Maleficent as Queen Ingrith, to which Michelle Pfeiffer gives life. We show an angry leader who believes that the only way to survive is to destroy the other. That is why we make sure that it is clear that he is afraid, weak and ignorant. Instead, leaders who must take their place as Aurora see the strength in diversity, appreciate the environment or respect others. It is not a political film nor does it try to be, but the messages are there. And, if at the end you are satisfied with the end of the story, if you think it is correct, then you are on the right track. I think it offers a good guide to children. Would you say then that Aurora and Maleficent can serve as role models for children? The film shows diverse female characters, but also other masculine ones that are extraordinary. Many times we think that, if we tell the story of a strong woman, it must be like a man or overcome him. Or until you need him. In this story, women need, want and learn from the men who appear in their lives. That seems to me an important message for girls who watch the film, telling them that they must find their own power while respecting and learning from the men around them. How was working with Joachim Rønning, the director of the film? Disney was very excited to have Joachim. It is always exciting to work with different directors. As our first director made a wonderful movie, it has now been very interesting to see her again through new eyes.

Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer also appear on the film.

You have done many things throughout your life. Do you have any goal to accomplish? I love being an artist but there are many things I like about my profession that I would like to have more presence in the coming years. I just want to educate my children well and do my best before they are alone in the world. I hope to instill all the good. It is my main objective. Although I do have some crazy ideas for the future ... Do you see any possibility of a third part being shot? We have many ideas. I only know that I would like to see Maleficent as a grandmother. Without realizing it, we have gone through Aurora with the stages that define the growth of a woman: birth, baptism, childhood, adolescence and marriage. Now the chapter of motherhood would come, be married and be queen. In addition, we have opened the world of the story to other areas.
