    Kathryn Hahn in Talks for Live-Action Mother Gothel

    Shocking no one, sounds like Disney’s upcoming live-action “Tangled” is eyeing a particular witch to join the cast. No stranger to the dark arts, Kathryn Hahn (“Agatha All Along“) is reportedly in talks to play Mother Gothel.

    In Disney’s animated version of the tale, Mother Gothel (voiced by the incredible Donna Murphy WHO IS AVAILABLE, YOU COWARDS) is the villain, who has a killer song you probably couldn’t escape following the release of the film.

    True, Hahn would be a better fit for the role than previously-in-talks fellow Marvel Studios alum Scarlett Johansson.

    Just yesterday, Disney revealed casting for the live-action adaptation, with Teagan Croft will play Rapunzel, and Milo Manheim will play Flynn. Michael Gracey (“The Greatest Showman“) will direct.

    Disney hasn’t commented on the talks with Hahn, but if they do, we’ll let you know.
