Photoshop 3.0 8BIM n channel6 /xxEXCLUSIVE: Billboards of Angelina Jolie are up around the world showing her as Disney's most feared sinister and iconic villainess 'Maleficent'. But our exclusive photos show Angelina's beauty is just as timeless and magical as 'Maleficent's young victim Sleeping Beauty. With a menacing glint to her eyes, nails like talons and blood-red lips these pictures could easily be promotional shots for the summer blockbuster. But astonishingly they were taken almost twenty-years-ago in 1995 - before her marriage to Brad Pitt, before her marriage to Billy Bob Thornton and before her Oscar win for 'Gia'. They were shot just weeks after the release of 'Hackers' - the breakout role where Angelina met her first husband Jonny Lee Miller. Angelina could never have known the poses she was pulling would be so strikingly similar to those of the 'Maleficent' - a role she was clearly born to play. The striking photos were taken by Los Angeles photographer Marcel Indik in October 1995. "I'll never forget, the way she posed, the way she moved in front of the lens, I knew she was special," he said. "Her body language and facial expression were in tune. She was fearless, fun, no attitude, just there to create amazing, legendary images." Some of the images were published in a 1997 magazine article - but the majority of the treasure trove - shot on slide film - have remained unreleased, until now.
