New York: Angelina Jolie revisited her early days as an action star when she performed her own action scenes in the Disney movie ‘Maleficent’.

New photos from the set of Disney’s epic ‘Sleeping Beauty’ adaptation show the 37-year-old actress being hoisted into the air by an enormous crane, the New York Daily News reported. The former ‘Tomb Raider’ star is seen suspended high above the ground before flinging herself into the air while filming a high-action shot in the English countryside. ‘Maleficent’, co-starring Elle Fanning, is currently being filmed in Buckinghamshire, England and is expected to hit theaters in March 2014.
