Tangled Sequel: Disney Exec Weighs In
15 Nov
Summary
- Disney exec hints at high standards for a Tangled sequel.
- A compelling story and passionate director are crucial for a sequel.
- Live-action Tangled with new cast set for 2028 release.

Disney Animation's Chief Creative Officer, Jared Bush, recently discussed the potential for a "Tangled 2" animated sequel. While not confirming any active development, Bush suggested that any sequel would need a director with immense passion and a story worthy of the big screen. He emphasized that these high standards might explain why an animated follow-up to the 2010 hit has not yet materialized.
Bush shared that "Tangled" was pivotal in his own connection to Disney and credited the film with revitalizing the musical genre for the studio. Despite the elevated requirements for a potential sequel, he did not entirely dismiss the possibility, especially given Disney's history with sequels for other popular films.
In the interim, audiences can look forward to the live-action adaptation of "Tangled," slated for release in 2028. Teagan Croft and Milo Manheim are set to star as Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, respectively, generating significant excitement for this reimagining of the beloved animated classic. The original "Tangled" remains available for streaming on Disney+.
