It’s been nearly 55 years since Disney released its 16th animated film, “Sleeping Beauty,” and in May we’ll return to the classic fable.
Disney premiered a new trailer during last night’s Grammys featuring a cover of “Once Upon a Dream” by Lana Del Rey.
The first trailer, released in November, gave us a quick taste of the title character but this time around we get a heaping spoonful and it tastes good, almost as good as it sounds.
The casting feels perfect. Jolie seems made to play this character and Elle Fanning looks a princess. The thing that sticks with me though, even more than the visuals, which are stunning, is the song. Del Rey’s voice is haunting and perfect. It’s a 90 second mashup of awesome.
