Gracey also breaks down his decision to portray one of England's biggest pop stars as a CGI monkey: "If you do a musical, you are already starting in a place of heightened reality."

Michael Gracey, who directed The Greatest Showman and Better Man, will be in charge of bringing Tangled to life in a new movie.

Better Man' director Michael Gracey claims it was a simple decision to have Robbie Williams portrayed by a chimp in the new film as the singer considers himself to be a "performing monkey".
