News Live-Action Tangled Remake in Development

[Brer Panther]

Saw this article this morning and it has me wondering if anyone can satisfy the fans when it comes to animated characters… I think both the Wednesday actresses are amazing in their roles but can’t picture either one as Rapunzel, I’m not very familiar with the others but none jump out to me as Rapunzel… just seems like this live action remakes are creating impossible casting calls.

Tangled Live-Action Remake: These 8 Actresses Could Play Rapunzel

Who's best to bring Rapunzel to life?

Can anyone think of an actor who’d be a natural fit for Rapunzel and would actually satisfy most fans?

I'm not familiar with any of those actors either... I dunno who'd make a good live action Rapunzel.

Sabrina Carpenter checks a lot of boxes.

Excellent choice. In genre, Sabrina's music can be best described as at the center of a three way venn diagram between levitating bedroom balladry, unkempt psychedelic grunge, and uptempo pop-rock, although perhaps more instrumental to her musics success than the production is the lyrics and themes. She sings with honesty, specificity, and humor, conveying the abstract pangs of angst and heartbreak as a vivid image of the rebellion and sadness of youth.

Yeah, Sabrina Carpenter is the obvious choice. She even comes from a Disney background.

yep. Her current artistic approach and portrayal aligns nicely with the Rapunzel we meet in the first act of the film. She had the performance capabilities and acting background which includes comedic chops. She’s a Disney alum and still very friendly with the company. And she has a huge following right now.

Aquilera has unbelievable singing ability but not sure she has the acting chops? But she can vamp and camp it up and and that may be all it may take.

I think she’s doing the Muppets special too? So still active with the company

If they make the character camp, which she should be then she can for sure do it. They also like each other and have worked together.



Here's her doing a live skit showing her comedic timing.

She’s great. I forgot but she came up through Mickey Mouse club, correct?

She has one of the strongest and most varied vocal ranges out there. Undeniable talent there. If Arianna Grande got a Best Actress nomination for Wicked, then Christina would blow audiences out of their seats if they let her let loose.

And Wikipedia informs me she is a Disney Legend!

The MMC was before my generation, but yeah her origins were as a Disney Mouseketeer. She's been involved with Disney since and her first music video for Mulan was filmed at Epcot.

 

[LSLS]

That is what AutoTune is for....

Yeah, honestly the ability to sing is just not all that important nowadays outside of live settings with the manipulation they can do. Honestly kind of like this casting.

I could definitely see Sabrina Carpenter. From the article, there are a few I don't know, but of the ones I do, the only one I don't see at all is Ortega.

I could definitely see Sabrina Carpenter

I hope she changes the end lyrics for When will my Life Begin like she does for Nonsense.
