Michael Montemayor, the writer behind Disney’s upcoming live-action “Tangled,” will pen “Medusa” for Disney and Dwayne Johnson and Dany Garcia’s Seven Bucks Productions.
The film will center on Medusa, the snake-haired figure from Greek mythology who could turn people to stone.
Montemayor shared the news on social media, posting, “Thrilled to be writing MEDUSA for Disney! A story about a woman who turns men into stone is deeply personal to our producer @therock. So grateful for sevenbucksprod and@disney for this opportunity!
The writer is also working on a live-action “Cinderella” spinoff, “Stepsisters,” and recently sold an original film titled “Court Date” to Netflix.
“Tangled,” starring Teagan Croft as Rapunzel, Milo Manheim as Flynn Rider, Kathryn Hahn as Mother Gothel and Diego Luna as a new character, will hit theaters March 31, 2028.
