Tim Burton may take on Maleficent

According to Ain't it Cool, Tim Burton is going to re-imagine Sleeping Beauty, but it's not really Beauty he cares about. He wants to tell his story from the point of view of Maleficent - it will be called Maleficent. Personally, I always wanted to know more about her myself - why did she hate the 3 Godmothers? Why did she hate Beauty's parents? Interesting questions, and in the hands of Burton and his team, it's going to be fun seeing the answers.
