La bella durmiente is one of two Spanish dubs of Sleeping Beauty. Produced in Mexico, it was initially released in all Spanish-speaking countries between 1959 and 1960.
In 2001, Aurora's singing voice actress Lupita Pérez Arias joined the lawsuit initiated by Cinderella's voice actress Evangelina Elizondo against Disney, demanding royalties for the home video releases of the dubs they partook in. The company refused to make the corresponding payment and redubbed the film instead. Unlike Cinderella, however, Disney did not make a redub for Spain, most likely due to the controversy over The Little Mermaid.

Notes[]
- Even though this film did not recieve a European Spanish dub, Disney Princess Enchanted Tales: Follow Your Dreams did with Aurora's European voice actress Carmen Cervantes reprising her role in Sofia the First as well.
- Aurora's speaking voice actress Estrellita Díaz was supposed to dub the songs as well, but she was unable to finish recording due to her cardiovascular illness and passed away on July 4, 1959, five days before its release. Aurora was her last role.
