ONCE UPON A TIME Adds Barbara Hershey

Oh, this is going to be delicious.

ABC has confirmed that Barbara Hershey has been tapped to play the Evil Queen’s mother. (According to TVLine, her character’s name is Cora.) Hershey will first appear in the 18th episode this season, “The Stable Boy.”

Given how cold-hearted the Evil Queen/Regina has seemed (especially in recent weeks), it’s going to be interesting to see what kind of relationship she has with her mother.

What do you think? Is her mother equally evil? Or perhaps she’s super sweet? Give us your best theories!
