“Andor” Star Diego Luna Joins “Tangled” Remake

“Andor” star Diego Luna has joined the cast of Disney’s live-action adaptation of its 2010 animated movie “Tangled”.

He joins the already cast Australian actress Teagan Croft as Rapunzel, the curious and plucky would-be princess with magical hair, and “Zombies” star Milo Manheim as cocky outlaw thief Flynn Rider.

Luna is taking on an original role created specifically for the feature. Also starring is Kathryn Hahn as the duplicitous Mother Gothel.

Michael Gracey (“Better Man,” “The Greatest Showman”) will direct the film which is expected to have big musical elements. Whether Luna will sing isn’t clear.

Shooting on the film kicks off in Spain in June. The original animated film grossed over $591 million and spawned a popular Disney Channel series.

Jennifer Kaytin Robinson and Michael Montemayor penned the script for the new film while Kristin Burr is producing.
