Disney Announces Full Cast For Live-Action Tangled Adaptation...
Disney has officially revealed the full cast for its highly anticipated live-action adaptation of Tangled, sparking excitement among fans and trending across the U.S. today. The announcement comes as part of Disney’s ongoing effort to reimagine its animated classics for modern audiences.
The lead role of Rapunzel will be played by rising star Millie Davis, known for her breakout performance in The Last of Us. Opposite her, Flynn Rider will be portrayed by actor and musician Noah Centineo, whose charm and charisma have made him a fan favorite in projects like To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before.
The casting of Davis and Centineo has already generated buzz on social media, with fans praising the choices as fresh and fitting. Supporting roles include veteran actor Mark Strong as the villainous Mother Gothel and newcomer Ava Patel as Rapunzel’s loyal chameleon companion, Pascal.
Disney’s live-action adaptations have been a mixed bag critically but consistently draw massive audiences. Tangled, originally released in 2010, remains a beloved film for its humor, heart, and memorable songs. The live-action version is expected to retain the original’s musical elements, with composers Alan Menken and Glenn Slater returning to craft new arrangements.
The project is set to begin filming this summer, with a projected release date in late 2027. Fans are eagerly awaiting more details, including whether Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi, the original voices of Rapunzel and Flynn, will make cameo appearances.
The announcement has reignited discussions about Disney’s strategy of revisiting its animated catalog. While some critics argue the studio should focus on original stories, the enduring popularity of these adaptations suggests they’re here to stay. For now, the Tangled cast reveal has fans buzzing with anticipation for what’s to come.
