On November 24, let down your hair as the enchantment continues with “Tangled,” the hilarious, 3D-animated feature that puts a modern twist on the classic tale of Rapunzel – and marks Walt Disney Pictures’ 50th full-length animated feature.

Zachary Levi provides the voice of Flynn Rider, the kingdom’s most notorious (and charismatic) bandit, who hides out in Rapunzel’s mysterious tower. Mandy Moore voices the fetching and feisty teen who takes Flynn hostage in a desperate attempt to escape her tower-bound existence. She ultimately strikes a deal with the charming thief, and the two set off on a daring, action-packed adventure … with 70 feet of magical golden hair in tow.

Directed by Byron Howard and 14-year animation veteran Nathan Greno (both of “Bolt” fame), the film features new songs and a score by eight-time Oscar®-winning composer Alan Menken (“The Little Mermaid,” “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin,” “Pocahontas,” “Enchanted”), with lyrics written by Glenn Slater (2008 Tony® and Grammy®-nominee for “The Little Mermaid”). The all-star voice cast includes Ron Perlman, Jeffrey Tambor, Donna Murphy, and Brad Garrett – with talent like that, good hair days are guaranteed!

Tron Legacy Zooms Into Theaters this December

The 3D, high-tech adventure “TRON: Legacy” hits theaters December 17. Fans may already be familiar with “TRON,” but the story picks up 20 years later when Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father Kevin (Jeff Bridges), formerly the world’s leading video game developer. When Sam is inadvertently pulled into the cyber universe where Kevin’s been trapped for 20 years, father and son must escape a ruthless villain determined to keep them captive in a digital realm that’s become far more advanced and dangerous than anything Kevin ever created.

In a visually stunning virtual world unlike anything seen before on the big screen, both Jeff Bridges and Bruce Boxleitner (Alan Bradley/Tron) reprise their original “TRON” roles and are joined by Olivia Wilde (Quorra), Michael Sheen (Castor), James Frain (Jarvis), and Beau Garrett (Siren Jem). Directed by Joseph Kosinski and produced by Steven Lisberger (who co-wrote and directed the original 1982 “TRON”), the film’s futuristic score was written by the Grammy Award-winning electronic music duo Daft Punk.

One of the most highly anticipated films of the year, “TRON: Legacy” is filled with some pretty impressive firsts. It’s the first 3D movie to integrate a character with a fully digital head and body based upon an existing actor, which enabled filmmakers to create the younger version of Jeff Bridges’ character. In addition, some of the technological breakthroughs include extensive use of self-illuminated costumes, creating both molds and costumes via digital sculpture technology, and shooting the movie with 35mm lenses and full 35mm chip cameras.
