Interestingly, right after the poster of Maleficent: Mistress of Evil was released by Disney, Elle magazine also shared their cover with Angelina Jolie. The cover story has also been penned down by Jolie who spoke about the influence of supposed wicked women. "What is it about the power of a woman free in mind and body that has been perceived as so dangerous throughout history?" she said at the start of her article and continued, "Women could be accused of witchcraft for having an independent sex life, for speaking their mind on politics or religion, or for dressing differently. Had I lived in earlier times, I could have been burnt at the stake many times over for simply being myself."
