ONCE UPON A TIME: Robert Carlyle on Rumple’s Lies to Belle
October 31, 2014 by Marisa Roffman
In this Sunday’s ONCE UPON A TIME, Rumple’s little lie weighs on his relationship with Belle as she tries to use the dagger to get Rumple to reveal some information he’s reluctant to disclose. Unfortunately for Belle, she still doesn’t know that Rumple swapped out the real dagger with a powerless replacement.
“She still doesn’t know [the truth],” Robert Carlyle teased to reporters on set. “It’s killing him, though, because it just keeps coming up. The dagger keeps coming up. She presents it to him a couple times and he goes to take this thing and he’s thinking — he nearly does it.”
And there is a real temptation for Rumple to confess all to his new bride.
“Initially, he did,” Carlyle pointed out. “It only lasted seconds and he took it back again…there’s a kind of addiction thing here. He’s addicted to the dagger and this whole world. And even though he loves her and he means that and he wants to do the right thing by her, it’s really difficult to be addicted to anything.”
But while fans may be hoping that Rumple eventually does the right thing and reveals the truth to Belle, Carlyle is rooting for his character to keep indulging in his evil ways.
“No, I’m really hoping he doesn’t [do the right thing],” he said. “As soon as he starts to do the right thing, the character’s finished. That’s the reason he is who he is and that’s the reason I think people like him because he is his own person.”
