Disney is moving forward with a live-action remake of Tangled, albeit without Scarlett Johansson, who has taken on a role in The Batman Part 2. The casting process is currently underway for Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, with numerous young actors being considered for the iconic roles. Filming is set to commence in the UK next summer. This decision comes after a brief pause in the Tangled project due to the negative reception of the live-action Snow White, but momentum has shifted following the success of Lilo & Stitch's live-action adaptation. Disney is also rumored to explore new live-action projects, including a Beauty and the Beast spin-off focusing on Gaston.

Who will play Rapunzel and Flynn Rider in the live-action Tangled?

Casting for Rapunzel includes emerging talents like Freya Skye and Sarah Catherine Hook, while Milo Manheim is among the contenders for Flynn Rider. Many names are in the mix as the studio aims to find the perfect actors for these beloved characters.

Tangled, originally released in 2010, features the voices of Mandy Moore as Rapunzel and Zachary Levi as Flynn Rider and remains a fan-favorite animated feature. The film's blend of adventure and humor made it a classic, paving the way for future adaptations and remakes within Disney's extensive catalog of stories. The new live-action adaptation aims to capture the magic and charm of the beloved tale while appealing to a modern audience.
