Disney’s live-action Tangled is still searching for a lead, according to a report that says multiple high-profile names are no longer in contention for the role of Rapunzel.
The story claims Sabrina Carpenter and Ariana Grande were previously part of the conversation, and that Sadie Sink has now also moved out of the running.
