This week, in honor of the world premiere exclusive reveal of the first image of Mother Gothel from Disney's newest animated feature film TANGLED starring the voices of MAndy Moore, Zachary Levi and Donna Murphy as Gothel, we are taking a look at the trailer and some exciting new interviews and clips from the modern-day take on the classic Grimms' Rapunzel fairy tale as an action-packed 3D musical adventure featuring songs by five-time Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken along with lyricist Glenn Slater and directed by Nathan Greno and ByRon Howard. BroadwayWorld has been chosen as the premier site for TANGLED-related premieres and be sure to stay tuned in the coming weeks for exclusive InDepth InterViews with Donna Murphy, Nathan Greno, ByRon Howard and other hair-raising excitement!

Blonde, Bouffant & 3D

TANGLED is Disney's newest animated feature film, starring the voices of MAndy Moore as Rapunzel, Zachary Levi as Flynn Ryder and Donna Murphy as Mother Gothel. It is a modern retelling of the Rapunzel story, adding many new twists, turns and tangles to the classic Grimms fairy tale, all filmed in awe-inspiring Disney Digital 3D video and sound. As will be revealed in the forthcoming interview this month with the directing team at the helm - Nathan Greno and ByRon Howard - this is one of the most technically advanced motion pictures in history and more than four years of work and development has gone into making the dream become a reality. The animation studio alone employs more than 450 animators and technicians! It is a truly epic adventure - the process of bringing the story to screen, as well as the story on the screen itself - and while Grene and Howard proved with BOLT that they are more than capable at telling a compelling story in this format, a musical Disney film with expectations as high as those that have been set for one is nothing short of a, well, Herculean task to set out to take.

In this special FLASHFORWARD FRIDAY we are taking a look at the comprehensive trailer, as well as some brand new interviews and images from the film, as well as freshly unveiled footage of a scene the filmmakers themselves told me is perhaps the greatest technical achievement in animated 3D film history! A marvel of wizardry - technical, musical and otherwise - TANGLED is angled to be the next great Disney film, with an unforgettable score and vocal performances. See if the lantern scene merely glimpsed at at the end of the second clip isn't enough to entice you further! Enjoy!

Be sure to stay tuned to BWW for all things TANGLED in the coming weeks and next two months leading up to its release - including extensive exclusive content only available here - in anticipation of its world premiere on November 24th!

We're surely in store for quite a treat come November!
