Baz Luhrmann in talks to direct Disney's live-action 'Tangled' remake

Daniel Richtman has stirred rumour mills by suggesting that Disney is eyeing acclaimed director Baz Luhrmann to helm their live-action remake of the beloved animated classic, Tangled.

The added twist is that Florence Pugh may potentially step into the role of the film's star.

This intriguing development comes on the heels of Baz Luhrmann's remarkable success with Elvis. 

However, some industry observers question whether it's a wise move for the director to jump aboard another major project so soon, especially considering the monumental success of Elvis. 

This has led to speculation that Luhrmann's interest in the Tangled remake might be motivated by a lucrative paycheck.
