Rapunzel is an upcoming American animated film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and starring Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi. It will be the 50th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics, planned for release in 2010. The story is based on the classic German fairy tale Rapunzel by the Brothers Grimm.
Doeri Welch-Greiner, the production manager for the movie, says that "The original version was that a girl got pulled from the modern world and replaced Rapunzel (played by Mandy Moore), and Rapunzel got turned into a squirrel. But we’re on a clearer, more classic fairy-tale sort of track right now with Dean Wellins as co-director; he was one of the story guys on Iron Giant and a Disney animator for a long time. It really plays on the mystery of the girl in the tower, and I think it’s really going to be great with Dean’s story sense and sense of staging, and the artistry that Glen brings to it, we hope we can bring the artistry of the movie to a different place."
