Comments Off on ONCE UPON A TIME: Potential Wonderland Spinoff Presentation Finds its Alice, A Love Interest, and Gets Title
And the final pieces of the potential ONCE UPON A TIME quasi-spinoff presentation set in Wonderland have fallen into place: an ABC rep confirms that Sophie Lowe will play Alice, Peter Gadiot has been cast as Cyrus (Alice’s mysterious love interest), and the series presentation is working under the title ONCE: WONDERLAND. The news was first reported by Deadline.
The hiring of Lowe and Gadiot follows Michael Socha’s casting earlier in the day as The Knave of Hearts.

Comments Off on ONCE UPON A TIME: Michael Socha Cast in Spinoff Presentation
The potential ONCE UPON A TIME quasi-spinoff is starting to take shape: a representative for ABC confirms that Michael Socha has been cast as one of the leads in the upcoming pilot presentation for an Alice in Wonderland-centric spinoff.
According to Deadline (who was first to report the casting), Socha will play The Knave of Hearts, “a sardonic adventurer, a man of action, a loner and a heart-breaker” in the four-scene presentation ONCE UPON A TIME co-creators Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis are working on with Jane Espenson and Zack Estrin.
There’s no definitive timetable for when we might see this potential spinoff, but if ABC likes what they see, Horowitz and Kitsis insisted earlier this month that they wouldn’t be recasting Sebastian Stan as the Mad Hatter, and the intention was for this to be a one-off, limited series type of thing.
Are you hoping we get to explore more of the Wonderland world in a potential spinoff?

ONCE UPON A TIME’s Jennifer Morrison: The Addition of Neal Keeps Emma ‘Off-Kilter’
March 22, 2013 by Marisa Roffman
Filed under #1 featured, Once Upon A Time
For someone who started off the series content to be alone, ONCE UPON A TIME’s Emma’s family keeps growing and growing.
At first she only had her son, Henry, to deal with. Then, the curse broke and Mary Margaret and David remembered they were actually Snow and Charming — AKA her parents. And now, Neal, Henry’s father is back in the mix. (Along with his fiancee, Tamara, who is heading to Storybrooke in this week’s brand new episode.)
I spoke with ONCE UPON A TIME star Jennifer Morrison (Emma) before the show’s recent PaleyFest panel about how the addition keeps her character “off-kilter…in a really nice way”…

ONCE UPON A TIME will be doing a whole other kind of flashback in this Sunday’s brand new episode — viewers will get to see the first week of the curse in Storybrooke. And with that flashback to the ’80s, we’ll also see the return of a familiar face in Jamie Dornan’s Sheriff Graham.
Before the recent PaleyFest panel (where they actually announced the flashback), executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis teased a little bit about Dornan’s return…

Are you excited to see Sbarge on CASTLE?

As you may have heard, this Sunday’s episode of ONCE UPON A TIME is pretty freaking major.

Comments Off on ONCE UPON A TIME’s Ginnifer Goodwin on Her Emotional Reaction to ‘The Queen is Dead’
Last night’s episode of ONCE UPON A TIME served up a pretty big slice of backstory for Snow White — for the first time, viewers met Snow’s mother…and learned that had Snow chosen to sacrifice someone else, she could have saved her dying mother’s life.
If “The Queen is Dead” made you emotional, you weren’t alone: when I spoke with ONCE UPON A TIME star Ginnifer Goodwin (Snow White/Mary Margaret) before yesterday’s PaleyFest panel, she told me the script actually made her cry.
Take a look at what else she had to say…

ONCE UPON A TIME: Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis Debunk Mad Hatter Spinoff Rumors
March 3, 2013 by Marisa Roffman
Filed under #1 featured, Once Upon A Time, Paley Center, Paley Fest
Last month, rumors swirled that ONCE UPON A TIME was looking to recast the Mad Hatter (who has been played by Sebastian Stan) with the intention of possibly spinning the character off to his own series. However, when I spoke with ONCE co-creators Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis before Sunday’s PaleyFest panel honoring their series, they denied intending to recast the Mad Hatter.
Take a look at what they had to say about their real intentions for exploring Wonderland (though it should be noted it is still very much at the idea stage of the process)…

Report: ONCE UPON A TIME Looking to Recast the Mad Hatter, Potentially Spin Him Off
February 22, 2013 by Marisa Roffman
Filed under Once Upon A Time, TV News
The ONCE UPON A TIME universe may be expanding — Deadline reports that ABC is looking to spin off the Mad Hatter to his own series.
The only catch?
According to Deadline, Sebastian Stan (who has played the dual role of Jefferson/Mad Hatter since the first season) isn’t available to commit to the multi-year contract a spinoff would require, so the network is looking to recast the role before Jefferson/Mad Hatter returns later in the season. If the story and new actor gel, ABC might consider spinning the character off to his own series.
ABC had no comment about the rumors.
What do you think? Do you like the idea of a potential Mad Hatter series?
