The success of this movie depends entirely on the chemistry between Milo and Teagan. Tangled is the best Disney romance because the banter is top-tier. I haven't seen them interact before, so I'm nervous. Teagan was super serious in Titans. Can she do the bubbly, high-energy Rapunzel? Casting is only half the battle; if they don't have that spark, the movie dies.

Milo Manheim is too safe. It feels like Disney is just recycling their own TV stars instead of looking for the best actor for the role. Flynn Rider is supposed to be a swashbuckling thief, a bit older and wiser than Rapunzel. Milo still looks and acts like a high schooler. It’s giving 'Descendants 4' vibes rather than a blockbuster movie. We needed someone with more grit, like a young Harrison Ford type.

Finally, Disney actually listened to the fans! Milo Manheim was born to play Flynn Rider. He has the charm, the comedic timing, and the musical theater chops from Zombies to actually pull this off. I was so scared they were going to cast a random serious actor who can't sing. And Teagan Croft as Rapunzel? Unexpected, but she looks exactly like the cartoon. For the first time in years, I am actually excited for a live-action remake. Don't mess this up, Disney.
