As the live-action adaptation of Tangled continues production following a temporary pause earlier in 2025, rumours have been circulating online about which actress Disney is eyeing for the lead role of Rapunzel, as the studio moves forward with adapting its animated classics and is reportedly in early development.
The live-action film is expected to follow the story of Rapunzel, a young woman with magical, long hair that can heal. She forms an unlikely bond with Flynn Ryder, a wanted thief, who stumbles upon Rapunzel's tower — a place she has never been allowed to leave. The original animated film, released in 2010, grossed over $590 million worldwide.
