As fans of Andor<\/em> will already know, Diego Luna has friends everywhere. And playing a guy like Cassian Andor for the best part of a decade, becoming one of Star Wars’ greatest characters in the process, has clearly made the two-time Emmy nominated actor a firm friend of the House of Mouse. Per Deadline<\/em>‘s reporting, Disney has snapped up Luna to play a mysterious new role in Better Man<\/em> director Michael Gracey’s upcoming live-action Tangled<\/em> remake.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

As Deadline<\/em> shares, details on Luna’s role in Disney’s long-gestating Tangled<\/em> retooling are being kept under wraps for now, though it is believed that he’s playing an original character written specifically for this live-action adaptation. He joins a line-up that elsewhere includes Aussie star Teagan Croft and Zombies<\/em> heartthrob Milo Manheim as Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, and Kathryn Hahn \u2014 no stranger to a witchy role as WandaVision<\/em> and Agatha All Along<\/em>‘s Agatha Harkness \u2014 as Rapunzel’s villainous Mother Gothel. Do Revenge<\/em> director and co-writer Jennifer Kaytin Robinson \u2014 no stranger to a tongue-in-cheek, winking genre deconstruction \u2014 has written the script for this one alongside Michael Montemayor, who’s currently hard at work on Akiva Schaffer’s Cinderella<\/em> spin-off Stepsisters<\/em>.<\/p>\n

With Michael Gracey in the director’s hotseat and Tangled<\/em> boasting one of the great soundtracks of Disney’s modern animated classics era, it’s a fairly safe bet that we’re going to be in for an all-singing, all-dancing fresh take on the original 2010 animation. And having heard Diego Luna’s pipes in 2014’s The Book Of Life<\/em> (seriously, go watch the film \u2014 or at least a YouTube video of his ‘Creep’ cover from it), we’re quietly hopeful that we might get to see him put down the blaster and pick up the guitar\/microphone here. Who knows? Maybe we’ll catch him down The Snuggly Duckling singing about his dreams. Or, heaven forfend, doing Mother Gothel’s dark bidding as one of her dastardly henchmen. We shall see… and we shall watch.<\/p>\n
