15 actresses who would be perfect as Rapunzel in a live-action Tangled movie
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan
Another offbeat choice, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, is best known for her lead role in the series Never Have I Ever. The Canadian actress also voiced a character in Turning Red, having both great hair and a lovely voice with an exotic appearance. The actress has already stated she'd love to play the role and that eagerness may win over Disney if they want to go for a non-traditional choice to play a more daring Rapunzel.
Chloe Grace Moretz
Her breakout role as Hit Girl showed Chloe Grace Moretz was older than her years. She's done great since with parts in The 5th Wave, Carrie, and The Peripheral, showing her wide range and sharp attitude. That might be watered down a bit to play Rapunzel, but Moretz's fun humor is key for the role and can sure pull off Rapunzel's tough side on film.
So far, Disney hasn't made any announcements, but the wide range of actresses out there shows they have a great variety to choose from for the role of Rapunzel once a live-action Tangled is made.
