IN CASE YOU weren’t aware Maleficent 2 is currently being filmed and it looks like a hell of a lot of fun.

Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning are returning to their roles as Maleficent and Princess Aurora respectively, 4 years after the first movie came out. If you don’t recall, it was a slightly darker take on ‘Sleeping Beauty’ exploring why Maleficent cursed Aurora to begin with.
Elle Fanning has been sharing photos of her hanging out with Angelina backstage and it looks like the two are having a whale of a time while filming.
In a second cute post, Elle said it was ‘bring your mom to work day on the Maleficent 2 set’. Adorable. Also how glam would it be to have Angelina Jolie as your mam?
Also how does one get ahold of those horns?
The sequel has added Michael Pfeiffer and Chiwetel Ejiofor to their cast which is very exciting indeed. Given the first film was the 4th highest grossing movie of 2014 (which nobody saw coming), the sequel looks set to be just as good.
The plot is vague so far and says the movie ‘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.’
It’ll be a while before it’s released though so temper the excitement.
