Maleficent (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

Maleficent is the score album composed by James Newton Howard for the 2014 film Maleficent, based on the Disney villain character Maleficent from the animated film Sleeping Beauty. The film is a live-action spin-off of Sleeping Beauty, and is loosely inspired from Charles Perrault's original fairy tale. Directed by Robert Stromberg, the film stars Angelina Jolie in the titular character. The film marked Howard's first live-action film from Disney, as he previously scored for the Disney animation films Dinosaur, Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet. The score album was released by Walt Disney Records on May 26, 2014. It includes 22 tracks from Howard's score, and a cover version of the song "Once Upon a Dream" performed by Lana Del Rey. The track was earlier released as a single on January 26, 2014, to coincide the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, and also released for free digital download on Google Play. The score received positive reviews from critics.
