The first trailer for the upcoming movie perfectly captures its plot and shows Maleficent going off the rails after Prince Phillip proposes to Aurora. Her overprotective nature gets the best of her, and the horned fairy has trouble letting her goddaughter get her fairy tale ending.

According to the official logline, this highly-anticipated sequel “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.”

Maleficent: Mistress of Evil is set to premiere on October 18th and it will see Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning returning to their respective roles as Maleficent and Aurora. The cast also includes Michelle Pfeiffer, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Sam Riley, Harris Dickinson, Ed Skrein, Imelda Staunton, Juno Temple, and Lesley Manville.

Raff will direct from a script adapted by Pulitzer Prize winner Doug Wright. 

The psychological drama follows a retired doctor (Bening) suffering from Alzheimer’s who is trying to figure out — in her moments of clarity — if she killed the person the police claim she had, or if she’s being deceived.

“‘Turn of Mind’ is an edge of your seat emotional thriller. A story of a warped friendship between two brilliant, sharp, forceful women who are bonded equally by their love for and jealousy of one other,” Raff said. “I am thrilled to have two legends filling these roles. What struck me most when reading LaPlante’s novel was how she rarely breaks from Jennifer’s (Bening) point of view. So, with her, we go through the visceral experience of a woman who relied her whole life on her gifted mind, only to find herself losing it when she needs it most.”

Rocket Science who is financing the project announced the news Friday.

Maleficent 2, now known as Maleficent: Mistress of Evil was supposed to hit the theaters on May 29, but Disney bosses managed to come up with a much better slot. They bumped up the release date of this film by seven months, and announced it will premiere shortly before Halloween weekend – on October 18.

The Maleficent sequel could have a tough competition in animated movie The Addams Family, which is opening on the same day, but true fans of the genre will probably find time for both. It will also be going against the sophomore week of The Goldfinch and Zombieland: Double Tap.

Mistress of Evil picks up several years after the original movie, and further explores the complex relationship between Maleficent and soon to be Queen Aurora. It will star Angelina Jolie, Elle Fanning and Michelle Pfeiffer.
