This is really the best offer she got after her big year?? Then again this will raise her profile with AntMan also and hey she will not worry about nobody seeing this movie like Kyra How big will the role be I wonder....Love both of them tho and Elle is a very good actress also

Hmmmm....I'm really gonna have to let this sink in. I don't HATE the idea, but I gotta say I didn't expect two such high-profile projects back-to-back from her. Still, I do like the idea of watching them act opposite each other.

But after thinking about it, it's fine, it just shows she can do anything and producers and studios still want her for big films like this. That speaks to her talent and shows people really like her. She's still wanted. Plus she could easily do another smaller project right after this, whenever it films.

YASSS to all of what u said plus being in a big Disney movie which will make MILLIONS world wide is never a bad idea plus she will get new younger generations of fans from it

Jolie took over for Michelle after she opted out of Original Sin n Michelle replaced Jolie in Murder on the Orient Express.

If the role is substantial and well written, then watching these two icons together on screen could be lots of fun. Not what I was expecting at all, but it’s high profile and sure to keep her name out there after the Ant Man frenzy wears off. I’m guessing this will be a summer 2019 release.

I actually really LOVE the first movie, and we talked a lot how Angeline's style looks like Michelle in the first movie when it came out, and now they are doing the sequel...but I will be disappointed if her style doesn't have a horn or anything devilish like that.

Wow. Finally news of another new project. Not what I was expecting but can't wait to see her working with Angelina.

Well actually I am thinking the same things as you guys, this is not the project I was dreaming about but why not... I haven’t seen the first one, I don’t really like Angie and it will be a supporting role. But it’s a new project, a movie people will talk about and certainly fun. At least, she is going back to work !! I hope she will continue with a next project « à la Kyra », I prefer the actress than the star 😉

After replacing her in 'Murder on the Orient Express' as well. Also, does Pfeiffer have a thing for sequels to successful films that inevitably become less successful:
Grease 2 Batman Returns (Made alot less than the '89 original) New Year's Eve Ant-Man and the Wasp Maleficent 2
Look, I haven't even seen the first Maleficent, so I can't discuss it's quality, but this project has 'Alice Through the Looking Glass' written all over it. I'm thrilled to see her attached to another project (which is the main thing frankly) but sometimes her choices can be more than questionable.
Let's hope she is looking at something a little more challenging than a 'Queen' role coming up after this.

Sequels are rarely the equal but I am going to be optimistic going into this. At least, we're bound to see some drop dead gorgeous costumes and photos of her.

The only part I liked about the first film was Jolie's performance. So while this may not be my ideal project for Michelle (not even my ideal Disney project for her), I am looking forward to seeing them share the screen. I just hope she'll still have room to do other stuff.

New Year's Eve was not really a sequel cuz it had a diff set of characters; it was part of the universe of Garry Marshall's holiday films. Technically tho, next year's Avengers movie is another sequel that she's in. I agree bout the lack of challenge in a queen role. But I guess it also depends on what kind of queen...evil and malevolent, which she already did w Stardust...or good, but facing some sort of internal conflict/moral dilemma. The latter could be interesting.

Looking at the director n writers for this film, it could really go either way. Each name is responsible for past projects I loved n past projects I hated...eek!!!!!

I don't mind the queen role per se. It depends on the writing and the direction. The Disney evil queen has been done to death, but flawed royalty can be portrayed in various and sundry ways. Some of my favorite performances were fucked-up royals with major control, mommy, daddy or sexual issues. I think the challenge will be for Michelle to come up with something we haven't seen before. With her acting skills and some decent writing, I'm willing to go with it. For now, anyway.

I'm just really surprised she would go for another tentpole film when she already has Ant-Man coming out soon and then Avengers 4 in 2019. I thought for sure she and her team would look for another meaty dramatic part to continue her momentum from "mother!" and "Where is Kyra?" but maybe she just hadn't gotten any good offers or she just really wanted to work with Jolie? I just hope she can find a great dramatic role after this is done filming.
Btw, did anyone else notice in The Wrap and both trades, Variety and HR, not one of them mentioned Kyra, they all said last seen in Orient Express and mentioned mother! and Wizard. She got the best reviews of her career but it's like the film just doesn't exist. Sad.

I just think this will be another 'Dark Shadows' for Michelle, but I'm willing to be optimistic for now. Let's see who else joins the cast...
It's worth noting that the first movie shot in the summer of 2012 and didn't see release until May 2014, so we could be in for a bit of wait.

'Batman Returns', and many other films, has already proven Pfeiffer can be BOTH the actress and the star. She just needs the right vehicle.

And Blanchett, Adams, Moore all do these films as well as smaller dramatic films, so it's not like she's the only actress of her caliber taking these kinds of parts.

I think the announcement is more huge than I'm personally giving it credit for...lol I'm still tripping on Ant-Man and the Wasp ha ha
What's funny is that for me, she seems to have a habit of getting comfortable in a certain mode of filmmaking n then going to the opposite side n staying there for a bit...
In 2015/2016 there was the serious/dramatic mode where she filmed The Wizard of Lies, Where is Kyra?, mother!...then in late 2016, into 2017, n now 2018, she's gone back to the blockbuster/escapist mode w Murder on the Orient Express, Ant-Man and the Wasp n now Maleficent 2.
I'm sure this not conscious on her part (tho who knows), but I for one love that a) she still has the opportunity to switch back and forth at will n b) she fits easily into either side.

I liked the first movie and I'm really excited that she'll be in this sequel! Well I'm just not so critical as some of you I guess, just happy that she has another role!

Looking at Box Office Mojo there is a couple of Disney Live Action films unnamed in Oct and Nov next year. I imagine filming must be due to start filming soon as Joachim Rønning has been posting photos of the set on his Instagram http://instagram.com/p/BhzH_VoFrJa http://instagram.com/p/BhwIb6AlbKO
