The Tangled live-action film is coming, and it looks like Disney has found its desired star.

In this age of live-action remakes, it seemed inevitable that Disney would be planning on for its popular film, Tangled. Since its release in 2010, Tangled has gained a huge following and remains one of Disney’s most beloved animated movies. The enchanting fairy tale, featuring the spirited Princess Rapunzel and her magical hair, has captured the hearts of both children and adults alike. Now, Disney is confirmed to be bringing this beloved story to life on the big screen in a live-action remake.

‘Tangled’ Announcement Brings up Casting Rumors

The news of the Tangled remake has left some fans feeling less than thrilled. Many fans feel overwhelmed by the number of live-action remakes that have been coming down the pipeline. It seems like nearly every month, a new live-action film is being announced. Despite the writers and film actors continuing on, Disney keeps on making plans to pump out these remakes. It has become very clear that Disney is depending on these films to help bring in the revenue that the studio so badly needs.

Even though the announcement of this film only came last week, fans have already begun making predictions as to who will be cast as the film’s star. A film like this will need to have an incredibly talented singer and vocalist leading its path.

According to recent reports, Disney is looking at actress Florence Pugh to play the iconic role of Rapunzel. Pugh, who is known for her roles in films like Little Women and Oppenheimer, has an incredible voice that has yet to be showcased on the big screen.
