Now, seemingly, Hahn has officially accepted the role — as her post today has also been shared by Disney’s official account.It had been expected that Disney would soon name its pick for Mother Gothel, following word of casting for the film’s lead roles of Rapunzel and Flynn Rider last month. Rather than some of the more well-known options suggested by fans for those roles, Tangled’s leading duo will instead be played by Titans actress Teagan Croft and Zombies actor Milo Manheim.Disney’s attempt at a Tangled live-action was first reported in December of 2024, and has been in and out of development over the past year. The original animated version of Tangled, meanwhile, garnered plenty of positive reviews and grossed $592.5 million worldwide back in 2010, earning it a spot alongside other recent popular classics. Work on this new adaptation appeared to have been paused last year following the widely-reported struggles faced by several other Disney live-action attempts, most notably the company’s Snow White remake. But this was pause was short-lived, however, as the subsequent $1 billion box office performance of Lilo & Stitch got the ball rolling again. Earlier today, it was reported that Disney is now developing a live-action Peter Pan spin-off centered on tiny fairy Tinker Bell, to launch on Disney+. Other upcoming live-action Disney remake projects in the works include the plans to remake Hercules and Bambi. A live-action Lilo & Stitch sequel is also in development, as well as plans to make a Beauty and the Beast spin-off starring Gaston. Before all those, however, Disney will launch its live-action Moana remake in July.Image credit: Kathryn Hahn/Disney StudiosTom Phillips is IGN’s News Editor.
