Kate and Anna are two story boarders who worked a lot on the character of Varian in the show Tangled the series, also known as Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure. 

This character quickly became a fan favorite at a point where most of the viewers were only here to see him, this is the big cause of why the show lost some of it's audience during it's season 2 where the character didn't make an appearance other than as an illusion during 5 seconds.

Kaiteand Anna both got the idea of creating a story about Varian after the end of the show, where he would go fullfil a quest, accompanied by a new cast and allowing the cameos of the cast of the show. 

The story is appealing and creative, but Disney rejected it because Varian is a side character from a Disney princess show. They offered to product this show if they changed the character of Varian it make it an original show, but it was the story of Varian, so Kate and Anna declined the offer, showing true dedication.

They kept working on it for a comic as a fan project but then their career kicked off and they had to stop the project, you can find what Kate shared about this project on her tumbler page here : https://kritterart.tumblr.com/

We do not understand this decision from Disney. The only reason of this not happening is because Varian is from a Disney princess's show and we asked everyone we know but no one saw how this is a problem. You don't have to sell it as something from the universe of Tangled if it is the problem. If anything this is only discouraging creativity and making the fans upset.

Let Varian be the protagonist he deserves to be. Let Kaite and Anna continue to explore this character they love so much and let the fans get more content of their favorite characters. 

As for now, Kaite and Anna are really busy in their career and maybe this won't be able to be a thing until 3 years from now when this petition succeeds, but we are just asking Disney to keep this idea of a project somewhere for now. After all, Frozen's project was something that Disney has been putting aside for 50 years, and look what happened.
