Florence Pugh has been sitting at the peak of her career with back-to-back memorable roles. From playing Yelena Belova in ‘Black Widow’ and ‘Hawkeye’ to delivering a killer performance in ‘Oppenheimer’, big production houses are after her dates. Well, to solidify her success, rumour has it that Disney is now trying to rope her in for a live-action adaptation of the highly-acclaimed movie ‘Tangled’ for the titular role Rapunzel.
While there is no official confirmation from the Mouse House, the news is spreading like forest fire on social media with many of her fans rejoicing. As for her career, this would only seem to be a sensible step as it would put her on a pedestal making her untouchable in terms of accolades. On one hand, many people are enjoying the news, but some of the people are not satisfied with this decision.
The sparkling news came via a movie scooper named Daniel Richtman as per Geek Vibes Nation. So far, it is rumoured that Disney is inclined toward making a live-action with Florence Pugh as the lead, however, an official confirmation is still pending.
