BLACKPINK’s Lisa may be adding a tiara to her acting cabinet! Industry chatter says the Thai singer, rapper, dancer, and actress is being considered for the role of Rapunzel in a new live-action take on Tangled. The conversation gained traction after her acting debut in The White Lotus Season 3 last year, where the BLACKPINK member was praised due to her natural ease on camera. It seems that Disney has been looking for a strong lead that can pull audiences after the now White remake struggled to spark the excitement the studio hoped for.
This potential casting would mark a major Hollywood moment for Lisa, who has become a triple threat thanks to her various music, acting, and fashion projects. If she lands the role, this will mark the second time the BLACKPINK star connects with Disney, following “BLACKPINK: The Movie,” which premiered in 2021 and is currently available for streaming on Disney+.
Nothing is official, and studios often test multiple names before a final greenlight. Still, the timing tracks! Lisa’s visibility is global, her performance buzz is recent, and the character is beloved across generations, making Tangled one of the most-anticipated live-action adaptations. Until confirmations arrive, consider this a watch list item with fairy tale potential.
