Maleficent
A fictional, high-powered supernatural female figure from modern popular-media retellings of the Sleeping Beauty tale (notably Disney’s 1959 animated film and the 2014 live-action film). She is portrayed as a powerful fairy who issues binding curses, commands animal familiars and forces, and whose motives range from unambiguous wickedness (1959) to a morally complex protector seeking revenge (2014).
