The Black Witch and the Prince
A darker, more in-depth adaptation of the fairytale, Sleeping Beauty. This gorgeous, rich, screenplay would also make an enticing Disney Series.
When Royal Fairy, Maleficent, is wrongly accused of being a Black Witch and her child stolen from her, she wreaks her revenge.

Leasal has been quietly writing screenplays while raising her 3 daughters. Her first comedy screenplay 'Jess & Julius' was nominated for Best Foreign Screenplay in the international screenplay competition Fresh Voices. She has since written 'The Black Witch & the Prince', a darker & in-depth look at the fairytale Sleeping Beauty, 'Lucy & Me' a line dancing feature comedy, 'Miranda's New Friend', a comedy short film which placed in the quarter finals of Screencraft short film International screenplay competition and is a proof of concept for the feature 'Lucy & Me', 'Ursula Devine', a comedy pilot and 'Any Spirits Present', a supernatural thriller feature. Leasal has recently directed & co produced her short film 'Miranda's New Friend'. The film is currently in post production.
The Black Witch and the Prince has been a joy to write. I thoroughly enjoyed delving into this fantasy fairytale adaptation and giving Maleficent an in-depth backstory and rich character.
