An image of Rapunzel’s tower being constructed has been shared online as the live-action Tangled filming has commenced.

Tower Construction

As you can see above, the tower construction is well underway. The iconic structure comprises wooden flats made to look like brick tower walls. Filming in Spain has already begun.

Here is the X post that shared the image:

Live Action Tangled

The live-action version of Tangled has had a fittingly, well, tangled journey to production. We first reported on the development of a live-action Tangled remake in 2020, ten years after the original film’s release, and it was announced in December 2024 as being in development with The Greatest Showman film director Michael Gracey.

The project was then placed on “indefinite hold” in April 2025 following the disappointing performance of the live-action Snow White film, but resumed production in October 2025 after the blockbuster live-action Lilo & Stitch. Gracey is still directing, and Jennifer Kaytin Robinson is still writing the script.

The Tangled cast so far includes Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel, Milo Manheim as Flynn Rider, and Teagan Croft as Rapunzel. Diego Luna is also attached to the project as an original character in the film.
