Have the creators of Disney used Michelle Pfeiffer’s face-features to bring Rapunzel to life?

From our pfriend Nathaniel and his Film Experience Blog comes this nice and interesting article about the Disney’s new animated movie, Rapunzel (to be launched the next season), whose main character could be based -loosely- in the face-features of Michelle Pfeiffer according to a photograph found at the creation set:

“In other hairy news, reader Cristhian pointed out this photo (below) in which someone involved in this musical –why doesn’t Rotten Tomatoes caption its photos? — has a photo of Michelle Pfeiffer pinned to his wall. Look to the top right corner.

Did they use her blondeness for Rapunzel inspiration or is he merely a pfan? Curiously it’s the same photo that they’ve been adorning her IMDB page with for ten years (it’s lifted from The Story of Us I think). If it’s not her hair I’m pretending she turned them down for voicework. She’s done the animated films already (Sinbad and The Prince of Egypt) and she’s not the sort of star who needs the easy money.”
