Disney has a lot of reboots underway, but one we're especially looking forward to is Maleficent 2. While the 2014 film put a different spin of the classic tale of Sleeping Beauty, the sequel, which is set to be released on May 29, 2020, will focus on Maleficent and Aurora as they "form new alliances and face new adversaries in their struggle to protect the Moors and the magical creatures that reside within."
