For many people all over the world, Tangled is one of the most loved Disney animated movies. It tells a story of Rapunzel, a princess with very long magical hair who has been locked inside a tall tower for most of her life. She dreams of seeing the floating lanterns that appear in the sky every year on her birthday. One day a charming thief named Flynn Rider climbs into her tower, and the two go on an adventure that changes their lives forever.

Now Disney is planning on making a live action. When fans heard about the casting choices, they were very excited to hear about it. One of the cast got the most praise: Mother Gothel.

Disney reportedly cast Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel. When fans heard this news, many of them immediately said it was a brilliant choice. Mother Gothel is one of Disney's diabolical villains. She kidnaps baby Rapunzel and locks her in a tower in which she uses her magic hair to stay young forever. To be able to play this role, one has to balance humour and danger at the same time. That's where Kathryn Hahn comes in. Many fans remember her from Marvel's Agatha All Along, where she nailed the role of a powerful witch, Agatha Harkness. She could switch from being playful to being intimidating in just seconds. That kind of acting style is exactly what Mother Gothel needs. Many people believe that Kathryn Hahn's acting in the live action could make the show more interesting, and I am very excited to see that.

Tegan Croft, who played Raven from Teen Titans, has been cast to play Rapunzel. Her character Raven is a darker, mysterious character, but Tegan still shows strong acting skills. Fans believe she can bring a different kind of energy to Rapunzel, who is bright, curious, and full of excitement about the world.

The charming Flynn will be played by the Disney Zombies star Milo Manheim. Many fans recognise him as Zed the lovable Zombie. In that movie, Manheim showed he could play characters that are funny, confident, charming, and emotional. Those qualities are exactly what Flynn Rider needs.

Many fans feel Disney has chosen the person cast to capture the spirit of Tangled. Even though Rapunzel is the main character of the movie, most fans are actually excited to see Kathryn Hahn playing Mother Gothel. Fans believe she could steal the spotlight. Tegan should better watch out. Villains often become the most memorable characters when played by strong actors. If Kathryn Hahn brings the same dramatic and playful energy she showed in Agatha All Along, Mother Gothel could become one of the most entertaining Disney villains in live-action history.

The upcoming live-action Tangled has already started creating excitement among Disney fans. With Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel, Meg Donnelly as Rapunzel, and Milo Manheim as Flynn Rider, many people believe Disney may have found the perfect actors to bring the beloved story to life. The movie is expected to start production this June and release late 2027 or early 2028.
