Lana Del Rey Casts a Haunting Spell Over New ‘Maleficent’ Trailer
In a match made in movie trailer heaven, Disney villain Maleficent stalks victims as Lana Del Rey’s haunting vocals play ominously in the background. A 90-second trailer for the new movie Maleficent debuted during the Grammy Awards Sunday night, offering an extended sneak peek at the film. The movie features Angelina Jolie as the titular horned character and serves as both a prequel and retelling of the classic story of Sleeping Beauty, where the villainess will finally get to share her side of the story. Del Rey croons the classic Disney song “Once Upon A Dream” — the same song that appeared in the original 1959 animated version of Sleeping Beauty. Her haunting voice sets the tone for the movie, which promises to be be much darker than the original. Jolie perfectly fits the part of Mistress of All Evil, cracking wry smiles and generally looking foreboding. The film hits theaters on May 30.
