Mandy Moore is not into that 'morbid' Frozen-Tangled fan theory

Sorry, but Rapunzel herself reckons those ‘Frozen’ and ‘Tangled’ fan theories are a bit of a stretch.

Mandy Moore, who voiced the girl with all the hair in ‘Tangled’, has scorned the notion that the two Disney worlds of Corona and Arendelle are somehow intrinsically connected.

The main theory goes that Anna and Elsa’s parents King Agnarr and Queen Iduna perish when their ship sinks in bad weather as they’re on their way to the celebration of Rapunzel’s return and her wedding to Eugene.

“That’s a pretty morbid fan theory,” she told TV Line, while out and about promoting the new ‘Tangled’ TV series, clearly a bit creeped out by the whole business.

“It feels like someone is really reaching, like into ‘Lost’ territory or something… but people can imagine what they will.”

Hang on, has ‘Lost’ got something to do with this too now?…. Did Anna and Elsa’s parents get washed up on ‘the island’ with the survivors of Oceanic 815??

Anyhow, she adds: “I know that Disney Channel is very big on crossovers, but I feel like the world and Kingdom of Corona is so rich.

“There are limitless characters. I feel like we have plenty of new characters to introduce, and perhaps some familiar faces. I don’t know if we need any crossovers at this point.”

That sounds fair enough.

Mind you, Disney doesn’t half enjoy stoking such chatter itself, what with its frequent use of easter eggs in its movies.

It’s well known that Eugene and Rapunzel are spotted in ‘Frozen’, as guests at Anna’s coronation, screengrabs providing the proof. Check them out below, bottom left.

There’s a further theory that the shipwreck of Elsa’s parents’ ship is the very same one that Ariel explores in the opening scenes of ‘The Little Mermaid’.

Though that’s also perhaps a macabre step too far for the Mouse House.
