Disney's Maleficent is such an amazing remake and twist on the classic Sleeping Beauty tale! But to the disappointment of many fans, the movie was removed from Disney's streaming service, Disney+, leaving a gap in our ability to enjoy this beautifully reimagined story. What makes the situation even more puzzling is that its sequel, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, remains available for streaming—so why aren't we able to enjoy the original?!

For countless fans and families who appreciate the unique perspective provided by this film, the absence of the first Maleficent on Disney+ feels unfair. The film is not just another Disney production, but a cherished retelling that offers depth and nuance to the character of Maleficent, portrayed stunningly by Angelina Jolie. It brought a fresh perspective and an enthralling narrative that engaged audiences young and old.

Disney+ is known for being the go-to platform for all Disney fans, allowing subscribers to relive the magic of their childhood favorites and explore new content. By offering the sequel without the original, the viewing experience is incomplete. This disconnect not only affects new viewers who wish to watch the series in order but also longtime fans who hold the initial film close to their hearts. We appreciate the access to wonderful Disney content, but omitting Maleficent diminishes the value of the Disney+ library for many.

We, the fans, request Disney to bring back Maleficent to Disney+, completing the story that inspires and captivates audiences worldwide. By doing so, Disney would not only enrich the streaming service’s offerings but also demonstrate an understanding of and appreciation for the diverse preferences of Disney enthusiasts. Join us in urging Disney to restore this modern classic to its rightful place on Disney+. Sign this petition and let's bring Disney's Maleficent back where it belongs!!
