Selena Gomez is no stranger to making headlines, but this time, it’s her fiancé Benny Blanco stirring up the buzz. The rumor mill has been working overtime ever since whispers began about Disney’s live-action Tangled remake, and one surprising name caught fans off guard—Benny Blanco. Allegedly, Blanco is being considered for the role of Flynn Rider, the charming thief who’s a beloved Disney character. And let’s just say, the internet has some very strong opinions about it.

While the remake is still in the early stages of development, the mere mention of Blanco as Flynn has sparked a storm on social media. Many fans of the original 2010 animated classic have voiced their concerns, with some taking a humorous (and savage) approach to expressing their disbelief. One X (formerly Twitter) user quipped that Blanco wasn’t “even hot enough to play the horse,” referencing Flynn’s trusty steed, Maximus. Others made lighthearted suggestions that he might be better suited for roles like the trolls in Frozen or Hagrid in a Harry Potter reboot.

The backlash seems to stem from how iconic Flynn Rider has become, both as a romantic hero and a fan-favorite Disney character. Portrayed as witty, handsome, and effortlessly charming, Flynn is seen as the gold standard of Disney princes. For many, the idea of casting someone unexpected like Blanco—better known as a music producer than an actor—feels like a stretch. Adding to the frenzy, fans have expressed a desire to see someone like Timothée Chalamet or even original voice actor Zachary Levi step into the role.

The response hasn’t been all negative, though. A few users on social media have pointed out that Blanco’s rumored involvement could bring a fresh perspective to the role. Still, the overwhelming majority seem skeptical, jokingly suggesting that Mother Gothel might "take Rapunzel back" if Blanco were cast as her love interest.

It’s worth noting that none of these casting rumors have been confirmed by Disney, and the film likely has a long way to go before production even begins. For now, fans can only speculate—and meme—while revisiting the animated classic on Disney+. As for Selena Gomez, her fairy-tale romance with Benny Blanco seems unshaken by the internet uproar. Whether or not these rumors turn out to be true, one thing’s for sure: fans are deeply invested in seeing justice for Flynn Rider on the big screen.
