By now, you've seen the above image of her as the "Sleeping Beauty" foe.

Today, Disney released the first teaser trailer for the movie. The film will tell the familiar tale from the villain's perspective, giving background on why the character cursed baby Aurora, causing the events that put both the princess and her kingdom under a magic sleeping spell.

Elle Fanning (Dakota Fanning's sister) stars as a young Sleeping Beauty.

"Maleficent" comes to theaters May 30, 2014.
