According to Jeff Sneider’s The InSneider, Johansson will no longer be playing Mother Gothel in the live-action Tangled movie.

Sadie Sink as Rapunzel could be amazing! Except I don't know if she can sing...

I know Sadie Sink was on Broadway before ST. She was in Annie. So I'm assuming yes, she can sing.

She wasn't my first thought, but I could absolutely live with it.

Anyways, I'd be happy if it were true that ScarJo was actually not moving forward with the project. I've loved her in most everything I've seen her in, but I just couldn't see her playing Gothel.

I had no idea Sadie sang! Great! And yeah, I agree re: ScarJo as Gothel, woulda been miscast.

‘Tangled’ Live Action director Michael Gracey and ZOMBIES 4 star Freya Skye have recently followed each other on Instagram. Seems like Freya Skye is considered as Rapunzel for the Live Action.

How would you feel if Taylor Swift played Rapunzel?

I don’t have strong feelings about Taylor Swift as a performer, but she’s 35 years old. She’s too old for the role. I feel the same way about Amanda Seyfried, who is even older.

Honestly, it’ll probably be some 20-something I (a 30 year old) have only a vague knowledge of or have never heard of at all.

Love Taylor but she's really tall for the role, she's 5'11". The actor who plays Flynn should be taller than her.

I'll admit, I'm pretty bearish on the idea of like teen pop celebrities, musicians, Disney Channel alumni getting the roles, and that's half of the names that have been floated for this film. But I'll also admit that this would have disqualified Mandy Moore from voicing Rapunzel in the first place, and I loved what she did. So, it's not a hard stop for me. But I'll agree that T-Swift has probably aged out of this specific role.

I also saw word that Mason Thames is circling the role of Flynn, though I'm not sure whether that's from an official source. If it were, it would only reinforce why I don't think he should have been cast for "Hiccup." Any person who could reasonably be considered for Flynn Rider has no business playing the awkward misfit son of a Viking.

That rumor came from The DisInsider who is not very reliable. I think it's highly unlikely he'll be cast in the role.
The studio is currently testing actresses for the role of Rapunzel, a shortlist for Flynn has yet to be put together but a name to keep an eye on would be Mason Thames (Black Phone, How to Train Your Dragon) as Disney has their eyes on him.

Out of everyone mentioned, I think Emma Myers could play Rapunzel the best. Idk about her singing but tbh I’d prefer by far if they pick someone who plays the characters the best and then have someone else dub for the songs.
