History
The Three Fairies appear in the 2014 live-action film under different names and are referred to as the "Flower Pixies". Though not outright vilifying them like King Stefan, this film portrays these characters in a rather unpleasant light compared to the clearly good original versions.

They first appear when they tell Maleficent (as a child) that a human went into the moors. This human turns out to be a child named Stefan (who would later become King Stefan), an orphaned boy and he quickly becomes Maleficent's best friend and later lover.

Later, they make another appearance when they grant the infant Aurora with magical gifts but when Maleficent places a curse on the young princess, they take her into hiding and raise her as their niece. They claim they are very good with children but it turns out they are incapable of looking after a child so while they struggle living like humans, Maleficent secretly cares for the princess from a distance and through Diaval while at the same time, pranks the trio just to kill her boredom.

Later, after King Stefan is defeated, the Flower Pixies appear at Aurora's coronation, when they give Maleficent the golden crown before Maleficent puts the crown on Aurora and crowns her to be the new queen of the two kingdoms.
