Black actress wants to write and star in the movie "Tangled"

In recent years, Disney has made its princesses real-life, and changed them all to black or Latino styles. For example, "The Little Mermaid" was starred by black girl Halle Bailey, and the live-action version of "Snow White" was starred by Latina actress Rachel Zegler.

Some actors have also seen the business opportunities. According to foreign media Screenrant, black actress Zazie Beetz (Deadpool 2, Joker) is working with her screenwriter boyfriend David Riddle to write a live-action Tangled movie in which she will star.

Tangled is Disney's 50th animated feature film and one of the most popular works after the 3D adaptation of Disney animated films. The film tells the story of Princess Rapunzel, who was born with magical golden hair that can keep people young forever. The witch named Gothel stole her and imprisoned her in a tower for eighteen years. Eighteen years later, the thief Flynn accidentally entered the tower and met Rapunzel, which started an adventure and eventually returned to his own country.

Rapunzel comes from the long-haired girl in Grimm's Fairy Tales. She is always blonde and blue-eyed in fairy tales and animations. Now Zazie Beetz wants to play Rapunzel and change her blonde hair into an afro.

David Liddell said: "There are some things I can't say now, but the plan is really exciting... We have written a lot of scripts together and have a production company. So we want to tailor a Rapunzel script for Saki, and the story will tell what happens after the original story, and she will have a huge afro. We are still writing the script, and we are excited to think about the wonderful performance that Saki will show!"

The story of Rapunzel is adapted from the Grimm fairy tale, so the script written by Zazie Beetz and David Riddle will not be restricted by Disney. If Zazie Beetz is successful in the movie "Rapunzel", then Hollywood black actors will have a new traffic code.
