The Season 4 fall finale of "Once Upon a Time" ended the show's heroes and villains starting a race to find the storybook author who decides who gets happy endings.
Rumpelstiltskin (Robert Carlyle) and the Queens of Darkness stand
plotting in one corner, determined to rewrite history for the villains.
Meanwhile, reformed bad girl Regina (Lana Parrilla) has found support
from Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and the rest of the Charming heroes to
help her get her happy ending and reunite with her true love Robin Hood
(Sean Maguire).
While the contest seems like a classic good versus bad matchup, executive producers Eddie Kitsis and Adam Horowitz assure Zap2it
that it won't be that easy. "Once Upon a Time" is reevaluating whether
good always beats evil, and some of the show's previously established
heroes might actually be more villainous than they appear.
"Is [being a hero or villain] based on a title or is it based on
our actions? We are going to see in the second half villains doing
surprising things and heroes doing surprising things," Kitsis says.
Parrilla has already clued us in that Regina will struggle with her light and dark sides,
but she is by far not the only one that falls into the ambiguous
category when it comes to Storybrooke characters. Hook (Colin O'
Donoghue) also slides along the good to evil spectrum, and there's also
Ruby (Meghan Ory) and Will Scarlet (Michael Socha) who are caught in the
middle righteousness and vice. But surprisingly it will be done of
these gray characters who will have the most trouble when it comes to
choosing sides.
"I think it will be Snow White and Prince Charming," Kitsis admits.
Say what? If there are any two people that exemplify the title of
hero it is clearly the Charmings. Regina has a book of quips on how sick
their eternal belief in hope and goodness makes her. Surely Snow
(Ginnifer Goodwin) and Charming (Josh Dallas) couldn't be tempted by
Rumple and his new partners in crime ... right?
"As far as you've seen!" Kitsis answers. "I don't think you've seen all of their flashbacks."
The aforementioned flashbacks will take audiences back to Season 1
in a time before the curse, both in Storybrooke and the Enchanted
Forest. Kitsis and Horowitz have revealed that Snow White and Charming
have a secret past with Maleficent (Kristin Bauer van Straten), Ursula
(Merrin Dungey) and Cruella de Vil (Victoria Smurfit). They think this
new trio are the necessary characters to bring some of the Charmings'
dark secrets to light.Source
