Maleficent 3 is officially in the works, according to theWall Street Journal, and Angelina Jolie will be returning as the titular fairy.
No casting information has been revealed yet beyond Jolie’s return, but previous installments featured Sharlto Copley, Juno Temple, Harris Dickinson, Elle Fanning, and Michelle Pfeifer. Robert Stromberg and Joachim Rønning helmed the first two movies, but we don’t know who will be in the director’s chair for round three just yet.
This news comes off the back of Jolie’s hints that she’s planning to leave acting. “I wouldn’t be an actress today,” she told the Wall Street Journal elsewhere in the interview, going on to say that she plans to eventually leave Los Angeles.
