Producer Roy Conli just made the official announcement on Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Facebook page that Rapunzel has been renamed Tangled:
Hey everyone, I’m Roy Conli, producer of Disney’s next animated film. I have some exciting news to share, and it was important to me that YOU guys the Disney fans hear it first. I want to tell you about Walt Disney Animation Studio’s 2010 release, Tangled. It’s a really fresh, smart take on the Rapunzel story. In our film, the infamous bandit Flynn Rider meets his match in the girl with the 70 feet of magical golden hair. We’re having a lot of fun pairing Flynn, who’s seen it all, with Rapunzel, who’s been locked away in a tower for 18 years. Im so proud of the crew working on this film theyre doing a fantastic job creating an awesome story with great characters and a stunning world and it’s all going to look amazing in 3D. All of us here at the studio are incredibly excited for you to see Tangled when it comes out in theaters this November.”
Tangled, voiced by Mandy Moore, Zachary Levi and Donna Murphy, is scheduled to hit limited theaters on November 12th before expanding on November 24th.
