Films
Tangled (2010)
Tangled is a 2010 American 3D computer-animated musical fantasy-comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Loosely based on the German fairy tale "Rapunzel" in the collection of folk tales published by the Brothers Grimm, it is the 50th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. Featuring the voices of Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi,[3] the film tells the story of a lost, young princess with long magical hair who yearns to leave her secluded tower. Against her mother's wishes, she accepts the aid of a handsome intruder to take her out into the world which she has never seen.
Before the film's release, its title was changed from Rapunzel to Tangled, reportedly to market the film as gender-neutral.[4] Tangled spent six years in production at a cost that has been estimated at $260 million, which if accurate, would make it the most expensive animated film ever made and the fifth most-expensive film of all time. The film employed a unique artistic style by blending together features of computer-generated imagery (CGI) and traditional animation while using non-photorealistic rendering to create the impression of a painting. Composer Alan Menken, who had worked on prior Disney animated features, returned to score Tangled.
Tangled premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on November 14, 2010, and went into general release on November 24. The film earned $591 million in worldwide box office revenue, $200 million of which was earned in the United States and Canada; it was well received by critics and audiences alike. Tangled was nominated for a number of awards, including Best Original Song at the 83rd Academy Awards. The film was released on Blu-ray and DVD on March 29, 2011; an animated short sequel, Tangled Ever After, was later released in early 2012. An animated series is in development, and is scheduled to premiere on Disney Channel in 2017, with both lead actors set to reprise their roles.[5] A feature-length sequel has also been discussed, but at the moment there are no further plans to go ahead with this project.[1][2]
Possible feature-length sequel
In January 3, 2011, the film director, Nathan Greno said a feature-length sequel was a possibility, and that he and Byron Howard were interested, but according to Greno, under John Lasseter's rule, only they will do one if there's really a strong story. However, Greno added, "That said, one day I may sit down with the guys and we may come up with a great story about Rapunzel and this world that we created that we have to tell, and [Howard and I] will definitely do it".[6] In January 15, 2012, days after of the release of the short sequel Tangled Ever After in theaters, discussing the likelihood a Tangled feature-length sequel, Howard explained to the Los Angeles Times "We don't want to do a sequel for the sake of sequels ... The story has to be worth telling."[7]
Development
In Winter 2014, Tangled's producer, Roy Conli, revealed that the production team had been "heavily pushed" for a feature-length sequel to the film,[1] but when the writers and directors got together to develop one, the directors weren't really interested,[2] and they realized, "she [sic] cut her hair. It’s over!"[1][2] Conli explained that at Disney Animation under Lasseter, it is always the filmmakers who decide whether they are ready to make a sequel (not marketing or merchandising).[1] Conli also said that "the film industry is kind of rife with [sequels] right now. The sequel is something that is very much in demand from certain business units".[2]
