She's considered one of the most beautiful women in the world.
But for her latest film Angelina Jolie dons prosthetics to portray a demonic witch in Maleficent.
In a just released teaser for the Sleeping Beauty reboot, the 38-year-old star is nearly unrecognisable as her cheekbones are augmented into sharp ridges and her ears are given a new pointy shape.

Demonic transformation: Angelina Jolie dons prosthetics for her latest film Maleficent
For most of the sneak peek, the Mr And Mrs Smith star wears a large ram horn helmet as she stalks around in a dark fur-lined coat while clutching a sceptre.
Wearing deep red lip paint, the bright eyed actress is still strangely stunning even under all of her make-up and prosthetic enhancements - making her look ever so slightly like a plastic surgeon's botched creation.
The trailer promises to tell the untold story of Maleficent, who was simply a nemesis in the original animated 1959 Disney film who put Princess Aurora to sleep.

The clip opens by contrasting the original animated footage with scenes from the new live action reboot.
It then depicts Jolie as Maleficent visiting the cradle of baby Aurora (Sleeping Beauty): 'I too shall bestow a gift upon the child.'
After saying the cryptic words a green mist emits from her hands, portending future doom.

'Then come out!' says Aurora.
'Then you'll be afraid,' replies the witch as she makes a dramatic entrance - sending Aurora into a fit of speechlessness.
It then shows magnificent magical creatures in the forest as Maleficent warns: 'Aurora there is an evil in this wood and I cannot keep you from it.'
The highly anticipated film is slated for release on May 30 and co-stars Sharlto Copley and Juno Temple.
