Amber Heard Rumored to be “In Talks” with Disney for Live-Action ‘Tangled’ Remake. Disney Fans are not happy after hearing that Johnny Depp’s ex-wife Amber Heard has reportedly been in contact with Disney regarding the upcoming live-action Tangled remake.

The scoop comes from insider Daniel Richtman who shared that Amber Heard and her representatives have spoken to Disney regarding a role in the film. Likely eyeing the lead role as Rapunzel if we had to take a guess.

Heard and Depp are currently in several major legal battles in both the US and UK regarding accusations of abuse on both sides throughout their tremulous and toxic relationship. The accusations alone have caused a stir in the career of Depp, having been dropped by Disney in the role of Captain Jack Sparrow and Warner Bros. as Grindelwald in the Fantastic Beasts franchise.

Amber Heard Rumored to be "In Talks" with Disney for Live-Action 'Tangled' Remake

Reportedly, Depp will be joining longtime friend and fellow filmmaker Tim Burton in one of his upcoming projects such as The Addams Family television series and/or Beetlejuice 2.


Needless to say, Johnny Depp is a Disney fan favorite actor with his iconic roles as Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and as the Mad Hatter in the live-action Alice in Wonderland films, so the news that Amber Heard may be joining the cast of an upcoming Disney film is garnishing mixed reactions from fans online.

What do you think? Should Heard be considered for a role in the upcoming film? Or should Disney pass on the opportunity and find a less controversial actress for the fan favorite role of Rapunzel? We would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

  1. you have got to be kidding me! Don’t ruin such a good movie with a scummy actress! SHE has already ruined so much with her acting career! AMBER HEARD IS NOTHING BUT A HUGE JOKE.

  2. Seriously? Amber negotiated for documents from Disney for VA trial, then dragged them to court to demand everything they had just because she had new lawyers and demanded Disney be fined because they couldn’t include they word ALL. What company would hire someone who dragged them into court?

  3. Ha this is laughable. Amber Heard is not only a domestic abuser who lied about donating money to sick and dying children, but she is also well past her prime. Will never watch anything she is cast in.

  4. Amber heard should be black listed from everything for the rest of her life. She deserves to have have her career ruined. Justice for Johnny!

  5. Disney will go down after this alot of people won’t watch it. This is a hug NO GO! She shouldn’t have anything after doing what she did to Johnny Depp especially when it comes to Disney. They all need to apologize for what happened to him and the way they handled the situation after finding out she LIED. ABUSE ISN’T SOMETHING YOU LIE ABOUT!

  6. I will not watch ANYTHING with Amber Heard! Ever! I love Tangled,it is my absolute favorite and to think that witch could portray Rapunzel is sickening to me.

  7. Disney better NOT cast her. I used to work in Disney World. I have Disney tattoos, art, globes, I had my wedding at the Wedding Pavilion and we stayed in the Grand Floridian and had the reception there.

    I can not believe they would cast this bi*ch after she lied about Johnny Depp, whom they released immediately after news broke. Ends up as a huge lie and Heard is the abuser and to my knowledge, Disney hasn’t reached back out to apologize to Depp or to work out new movie deals. Disney let’s people go for discussing opinions, and for other things that they do not agree with. If they cast Amber Heard, it’s going to show children that it’s okay to abuse others and that you’ll be rewarded for doing so. Shame on you Disney.

  8. I dare you. I, along with pretty much everybody I know, will cancel every Disney subscription we have. I will never pay to see another Disney film. And I have Disney art, Disney tattoos, stuffed animals. The works. Disney has been a huge part of my life since I was born, and I will drop it like a sack of bricks if you cast Amber Heard in ANY movie EVER.

  9. I think that’s so unfair what Disney is doing on Johnny Depp,
    He made them lots of movies and brought a lot of money in

    To bring his E-wife into Disney is just like another dig at Johnny
    I think she should be fired from all roles , she is lying about Johnny Depp to get her career up and going, and WB played into her hands and now Disney is turning on JD. I can’t believe this, JD is a fantastic actor and who is she a gold digger that married a big celebrity to get to where she is at , I don’t agree with this I don’t think she should play any big parts until the truth comes out first
    JD should still be playing all his roles

  10. Honestly I’m so sad to hear about this the film industry is sick. Everyone looks towards Disney for QUALITY AND FAMILY FRIENDLY Entertainment Last I checked if someone Abuses someone and still can appear in kids movies it’s no longer family friendly. Disney really out there risking their reputation by letting an abuser get a job with them when the victim lost everything. Removed Amber heard! You had no problem dropping Johnny Depp and the trials hadn’t even ended so do the right thing or your just digging the deeper hole for enraged fans. There’s plenty of movies giants us fans can go watch instead of you.

  11. I think that if Disney & Warner Bros dropped Depp because of the ALLEGED abuse, but are still willing to work with Heard (even though she was the abuser) they have to have a serious look at what they are portraying to the masses. It’s as if they are saying that if a man abuses a woman it’s wrong. But if a woman abuses a man it’s fine.

    Anyone else notice the double standards??

  12. How dare you cast this evil person to portray this character. If this is true, you should all be utterly ashamed of yourselves. If Lucasfilm fired Gina Carano based on expressing her feelings and you hire Amber Heard after the all the legal allegations she facing for ABUSING her husband and one of your most famous stars, you are a terrible industry.

  13. Johnny Depp was not considered for another Pirates of the Caribbean because they thought he abused her. Now that we know she is the abuser, why is she getting roles? I definitely will not be watching or letting my kids watch.

  14. Dude Disney is disgusting to think this would be ok to cast her ? don’t support abusive people Disney ! DO BETTER !! Smdh

  15. If they do this, I hope noone goes to see this movie! There are so many more talented actresses that aren’t bold faced liars about serious issues such as abuse. She deserves to rot in jail

  16. The article: “news that Amber Heard may be joining the cast of an upcoming Disney film is garnishing mixed reactions from fans online”
    The comments: Very solidly one sided reactions…
    I’ve yet to see any ‘mixed’ reactions on this story. I sincerely wonder where they’re seeing the other arguments?

  17. Well they just dropped that girl from Mandolorian so I sure those they don’t let amber in on this. I’d be well disappointed. Love Depp with my whole heart I just want there to be some kind of justice and this is NOT it

  18. I do not agree with this at all as others don’t this Woman is under allegations of abuse it is not a good look at all but if you guys need a real-life Tiana hit me up I am funny and well just funny??

  19. Agreeing with everyone else, disney needs to step back and rethink their decision. So many fans are against this horrible individual. We are also against domestic abuse, and she is definitely an abuser. Poor Depp has lost so much because of this evil woman. I will not stand behind this movie if she plays any part in it.

  20. That’s taking one of favorite loved princess who is sweet and kind and loving and betray her by a horrible person inside and out. No thanks Disney you will loose this movie all together. I will stay with the animation version !! I believe many people think this way too!!!!??. Pick anyone else not her!!!

  21. Really?? Didn’t Disney JUST finally deign to apologize to Depp? I hope this is just a rumor stunt, cause if not I’m gonna be super pissed :/ Rapunzel is one of my favorites. Not cool casting on this one :/

  22. What is wrong with Disney? This bitch is literally an abuser, and now they’re trying to cast her when they got rid of my man Johnny for DOING NOTHING???? Disney’s ratings are going to fall severely and they’re going to have to wake up and realize how much they’re screwing everything up. Fuck amber and fuck Disney.

  23. The world has gone crazy! They drop Depp and then even consider bringing her in to the Disney fold? Message to Disney, put down the mouse shaped crack pipe and send yourself to rehab.

  24. I’m about to be done with Disney. As much as I love it, they really need to pick their battles wisely. We all hate her for the monster she is. It’d be like casting Casey Anthony. We don’t want her. She deserves to never have a career again. If you stand with her you’re standing with domestic abuse. Just cause she’s a woman doesn’t make it any less worse.
