The Once Upon a Time spin-off is quickly taking shape as ABC closes in on the start of filming for the pilot. Some major casting has been announced, including who's going to voice the White Rabbit and which actress is playing the Red Queen.
By that, of course, I’m referring to the Queens of Darkness—an exclusive club that may have just become a duo (plus or minus a double-crossing Regina), now that Ursula has apparently achieved her happy ending.
The thing about a show that specializes in twisted fairy tales is that sooner or later, those watching it will learn to expect the twists. Which meant that, halfway through tonight’s episode, it was only natural to grow suspicious.
Kristin Bauer van Straten has booked a return trip to Once Upon a Time. EW has learned exclusively that the True Blood alum will reprise her dastardly role as villain Maleficent during the second half of Once’s upcoming season.
