The Once Upon a Time cast and showrunners took the stage at PaleyFest yesterday to talk season 2 and beyond. Watch the full panel and several interviews here!
While the panel was going on yesterday, Hypable hosted a live blog giving fans updates on the biggest points revealed in the panel.
But we’re betting that’s not enough for you hardcore Oncers! So check out the full video of the panel below to make sure you don’t miss anything:
Among the biggest reveals of the night are the titles of the two-part season 2 finale: “Second Star to the Right” and “Straight on ‘Til Morning.” It sounds like Peter Pan is coming to Storybrooke – or perhaps he’s a character we’ve already met, like Bae?!
Ginnifer Goodwin also previews some big changes coming for Snow White, saying that, “We’re definitely going to see a different side to Mary Margaret, and I think we’ve earned it.”
They go on to discuss the upcoming Storybrooke flashback episode “Welcome to Storybrooke,” which will air March 17. The episode will show us what happened when the characters first arrived there, and showrunner Ed Kitsis teases that, “We’re going to see the Huntsman. We’re going to get more insight into what it was like that first week in 1983 and what it was like for the Evil Queen to win.”
Regarding the rumours that ABC is planning a Mad Hatter spinoff with a new actor taking over for Sebastian Stan, Kitsis reassures worried fans by stating that, “we have no plans to recast anyone.”
And finally, we get some insight into the new, cursed Belle. Kitsis says that this girl (Lacey) is, “the opposite of Belle. Things are going to get a lot more interesting for Mr. Gold.” But will Belle ever regain her memories of her true identity? “Have hope and faith and we’ll see what happens,” Kitsis offers.
