Sleeping Beauty 1959 Merryweather next to shocked Aurora next to Maleficent
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Maleficent is the villain in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty, but one theory changes her role in the story enough to make viewers root for her after all these years. Disney is home to some of the most popular and beloved animated classics in film history, and the studio is best known for its princess movies. Among them is Sleeping Beauty, the studio’s third official Disney Princess.
Sleeping Beauty begins with a narration about Aurora’s parents, King Stefan and Queen Leah, told through a book. In it, it’s mentioned that the King and Queen had longed for a child for years and their wish was finally granted when Aurora was born. The king and queen celebrated Aurora’s birth with a great holiday so that “all of high or low estate” could pay homage to the young princess.
If the Queen didn’t honor her promise, nothing stopped Maleficent from undoing what she did for her. Sleeping Beauty didn’t go into the details of Maleficent’s role in the kingdom, her connection to the fairies, and why she was so upset that she wasn’t invited. Surely, it can be argued that the whole kingdom, royal or not, was invited except her because she was “unwanted”, but she was also aware of her position as the self-proclaimed “Mistress of Evil”, so she should have known that she wouldn’t be wanted at a celebration like that.
