Speculations are running around about who will appear in roles of Disney characters as the studios are busy making live-action remakes of classic Disney animations. And it’s been all the more exciting as fans have started to chip in names of actors who might suit each role. For the role of Princess Rapunzel in ‘Tangled‘, the name echoed is that of Florence Pugh.
Florence Pugh has created quite a name in the industry with her performance in ‘Oppenheimer‘, ‘Don’t Worry Darling‘, and ‘Midsommer‘. So there can’t be a better option than Pugh for the role of Rapunzel. The animated movie came out back in 2010 and has been one of the most successful since ‘The Lion King‘. If Florence Pugh joins hands with Disney they’ll be aiming for another success.
