Tangled
Disney's 50th full length animated feature film is Tangled – a telling of fairy tale Rapunzel. From the makers of Bolt.
When the kingdom’s most wanted, and most charming, bandit Flynn Rider is taken hostage by Rapunzel (voiced by Mandy Moore) – a feisty teen with 20 metres of golden hair who’s looking for her ticket out of the tower where she’s been locked away for years – the unlikely duo sets off on an escapade filled with "adventure, heart, humour and hair, lots of hair".
