A live-action Tangled movie has been in the works, and we finally have a new update that is making us sing “I Have a Dream” all day long. Okay, it’s actually having us sing “Mother Knows Best” because Kathryn Hahn took the stage at the 2026 D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event to share the opening date for the live-action film: March 31st, 2028.
The crowd at the Disney Entertainment panel at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event went NUTS when Kathryn Hahn took to the stage to share this news. Hahn is portraying Mother Gothel in the film. You might already know and love her as Agatha from Agatha All Along and WandaVision.

Teagan Croft will be playing Rapunzel, and she looks great for this role. She played Raven on the DC series Titans.

Disney has been focusing a lot on live-action movies lately, with Lilo & Stitch having been released in 2024 with a sequel already in the works.

The live-action Moana hit the theaters in 2026. While some fell in love with the cultural representation and music, others felt the acting was a bit bland.
