Tangled is a 2010 American animatedmusicaladventurefantasy comedy film produced byWalt Disney Animation Studios and released byWalt Disney Pictures. It is loosely based on the German fairy tale "Rapunzel" from the 1812 collectionGrimms' Fairy Tales by theBrothers Grimm. Featuring the voices ofMandy Moore andZachary Levi,^[2] the film tells the story of a lost, young princess with long magical hair who yearns to leave her secluded tower. Against her mother's wishes, she accepts the aid of a handsome intruder to take her out into the world which she has never seen. ComposerAlan Menken, who had worked on prior Disney animated features, returned to scoreTangled.

Disney released a short sequel namedTangled Ever After in theaters in early 2012. The plot revolves around Rapunzel and Eugene's wedding day and about Pascal and Maximus losing the wedding rings and bringing them back.

The television sequelTangled: Before Ever After,set between the events ofTangled andTangled Ever After, was released on March 10, 2017.^[3]Tangled: Before Ever After doubled as a pilot forRapunzel's Tangled Adventure.

A television series based on the film premiered onDisney Channel on March 24, 2017, entitledRapunzel's Tangled Adventure.^[4] The series takes place between the events of original film and the 2012 shortTangled Ever After, withMandy Moore andZachary Levi reprising their roles.^[5]

Shortly following theseries finale ofRapunzel's Tangled Adventure, series' storyboard artist Kaitlyn Ritter revealed that she and Anna Lencioni had pitched an idea for aspin-off focusing on Varian titledVarian and the Seven Kingdoms. The series saw Varian learning that his mother, Ulla, was an alchemist and sets out on a journey to search for her after discovering her almanac. He teams up with three other young heroes named Princess Nuru, Yong and Hugo to learn the seven alchemical stages of transformation and collect a totem for each so as to be reunited with his mother while also evading her former partner Donella who wants the totems for herself. Varian would have also encountered his long lost cousins who shared his scientific fascinations.^[6] Storylines would have revolved around Hugo being a hired agent of Donella who later turns on her and Ulla revealed to be the villain of the series with Varian trying to turn her good based on his own personal experience. According to Ritter, while Disney was enthusiastic with the project and even received support and encouragement, they ultimately passed as they felt that a series that focused on a Rapunzel-related character without Rapunzel would be risky. Disney even suggested changing Varian to a completely original character so as to be an original brand, but Ritter and Lencioni refused.^[7]
