Angelina Jolie concocted quite the potion for theaters this weekend. Her Sleeping Beauty companion film Maleficent enchanted the box office well beyond expectations, taking in $70 million, according to studio estimates from Rentrak. The debut provided a storybook chapter for the film, which marked the largest debut of Jolie’s career, eclipsing the $60.2 million bow for Kung Fu Panda in 2008.
