Production for "Maleficent 2" begins in 2018 and the Disney movie will shoot in the U.K. Will Elle Fanning reprise her role and re-join Angelina Jolie? "Maleficent 2" with Jolie as the lead is one of four major movies expected to film in the U.K. in 2018, as per KFTV. Also expected to start production on the other side of the pond are Disney's "Artemis Fowl," a Robert Downey, Jr. film, and "Detective Pikachu" starring Ryan Reynolds.Jolie confirmed in September that she's returning to play the famous character from the "Sleeping Beauty" classic fairytale. It's not yet clear, however, if the sequel will feature Princess Aurora again as Fanning's casting hasn't been announced.Fanning is set to star in the Patty Hearst biopic "American Heiress" with director James Mangold. There's still no production schedule for this film so far, which might mean that the young star will be free to join "Maleficent 2."Is Princess Aurora, however, still part of the story in the sequel? Details to the plot of "Maleficent 2" are scare but Jolie said that the script is still in the works.It was Maleficent's kiss that woke up Aurora at the end of the first movie as they forged a strong motherly bond against Aurora's father, the evil Stephan (Sharlto Copley). Maleficent and Aurora's friendship unified the magic forest Moors and the human's kingdom as Aurora finally took reigns as the new Queen.The movie, which ran in theaters in 2014, ended with Maleficent watching with pride as her ward received her crown. Back then, Jolie wasn't keen on doing sequels. She turned down offers to reprise her roles in films like "Salt" and "Wanted." The actress, however, changed her mind about doing a follow-up to "Maleficent" since she became the family's breadwinner following her divorce. "Maleficent 2" will be Jolie's comeback movie after taking a break from acting for three years to concentrate on directing.

She's a movie star and a UN ambassador - but most importantly, a mom.And Angelina Jolie wore the latter hat Saturday in snowy New York City, as she brought four of her six children - Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, and twins Knox and Vivienne, nine - to a screening of Star Wars: The Last Jedi in Manhattan. (Her teenage sons with ex Brad Pitt, Maddox, 16, and Pax, 13, were not along for the trip to the cinema.) The 42-year-old actress-director lived up to her fashionista image, donning a wintry ensemble of a textured wrap dress with a tan belt with heeled black boots.The Maleficent beauty accessorized with black sunglasses with a black leather handbag with metallic buttons. She was impeccably made up with her dark brown locks slightly parted to the left as she walked with her quartet of kids, who were bundled up amid the frosty conditions.Zahara kept warm in an ash grey zip-up sweatshirt with moss green cargo pants and black Nike trainers, with her hair pulled back. Shiloh matched her sister, as she also wore an ash grey zip-up over a white top with brown khaki cargo pants and black sneakers, seemingly drawing the hoodie over her face as photographers approached.Knox smiled in a padded blue zip-up vest over a blue sweatshirt with brown khaki cargo pants and black boots, while his twin sister Vivienne wore a seaweed green hooded sweatshirt with patterns with camouflage pants and blue sneakers.

Temperatures were hovering below freezing in New York City on Friday night.But that apparently didn't bother Angelina Jolie, who didn't let the chilly weather dictate her outfit for the evening.The 42-year-old Maleficent star donned a stunning black strapless number for her night on the town with her kids. Of course the low-cut neck showed off her decolletage and shoulders, while the mostly form-fitting garment also emphasized her svelte hips.A pair of long black gloves added a touch of classic elegance.Her brunette locks were pushed off her forehead and back, while subtle blush, eye make-up and pale rose lipstick made the mother of six glow.While Angelina has been enjoying the single life lately, she still brought several dates with her to dinner at Cipriani in the form of four of her children.Son Pax, 14, looked every inch the dapper gentleman in a black suit and textured black and grey shirt. He even took his mother's arm at one point to ensure she kept her balance.Shiloh, aged 11, went even fancier, opting for a classic tuxedo including black bow tie. A pair of black sneakers provided a bit of contrast.Nine-year-old Knox looked quite carefree in his own black suit complete with patent leather loafers.Zahara, 12, looked to be having a wonderful night in a black top and trouser combination.The dinner may have been a bit of a celebration, as two of Angie's films, First They Killed My Father and The Breadwinner, both recently garnered Golden Globe nominations.Unfortunately those same films failed to gain any Oscar nominations.
