Angelina Jolie Looks Terrifying as Maleficent on New <i>Entertainment Weekly</i> Cover

Angelina Jolie appears in costume as Maleficent on the new Entertainment Weekly cover, and holy crap, she looks terrifying. Awesome, but terrifying. No one in their right mind would want to be near the business end of those horns.

In the interview, Jolie explains why the Maleficent filmmakers chose to explore the story of Sleeping Beauty from another perspective. "The exercise wasn't how can we have fun with a villain," she said. "It was: what turns people evil and vile and aggressive and cruel? What could have possibly happened to her?"

May 30, please hurry up and get here already.
