Last we heard of the Walt Disney retelling of their animated classic Sleeping Beauty, titled Maleficent, was word back in January that a director had been chosen in Robert Stromberg.

Now comes word that the movie is just about ready to begin production, with filming now scheduled to start in June.

Angelina Jolie stars in the live-action movie, which, as the title indicates, will tell the Sleeping Beauty fable from the point of the villainess Maleficent.
