It should come as no surprise that with the massive success of the live action version of Alice in Wonderland, Disney is moving forward with another live-action take at one of their animated classics.

Sleeping Beauty is considered one of Disney’s animated masterpieces, and in 2014, we’ll see it in a whole new light with the live action Maleficent.

Angelina Jolie is set to play the iconic villainess, and with production starting this month, Disney has decided to release the first image, and honestly - she looks perfect in the role.

Disney’s full press release follows below.

Directed by two-time Oscar®-winning production designer Robert Stromberg (“Avatar," “Alice in Wonderland"), in his directorial debut, and produced by Joe Roth, “Maleficent" is written by Linda Woolverton (“The Lion King," “Beauty and the Beast") and executive produced by Angelina Jolie, Don Hahn, Matt Smith and Palak Patel.

This is the untold story of Disney’s most beloved villain, Maleficent, from the 1959 classic “Sleeping Beauty.“ The film reveals the events that hardened her heart and drove her to curse the baby, Aurora.
