‘Once Upon A Time’ New Casting: Dania Ramirez, Gabrielle Anwar, Rose Reynolds, Mekia Cox & Adelaide Kane

As many of you will know, ‘Once Upon A Time‘ Season 7 is somewhat of a reboot for the show. With the exception of Lana Parrilla (Evil Queen/Regina), Robert Carlyle (Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold), Colin O’Donoghue (Hook/Killian) and Andrew J. West (the new, older Henry), all the other cast have departed the series. That means a whole new cast of characters, and Disney/ABC have just announced 5 women who will be taking up new roles.

Dania Ramirez (‘The Sopranos’, ‘Heroes’, ‘Devious Maids’), and Gabrielle Anwar (‘Burn Notice’, ‘The Tudors’), are joining as new series regulars. Mekia Cox (‘Undercovers’, ‘Lost’, ‘Chicago Med’), Adelaide Kane (‘Reign’, ‘Teen Wolf’, ‘Neighbours’), and our very own Rose Reynolds (‘Wasted’, ‘Poldark’) will be joining as recurring characters. What exactly those characters will be is being kept under wraps for the moment, but I’m sure we’ll find out in due course!

Not much is known about Season 7, but the title of the first episode was released yesterday as ‘Hyperion Heights’. There’s lots of speculation about what that could relate to, but one suggestion is it could be the new ‘home’ for the show. What we do know is they will abandon the town of ‘Storybrooke’, as the heroes will be taking up “new identities in a new city” and “facing a new curse.”

Given Rose’s involvement in the show, some of you may be asking “But what about Wasted?”… Unfortunately, it’s not getting a 2nd series… At least not at the moment. “Never say never” was what I was told, but for now, it’s done, which is a tragedy of epic proportions. Hopefully, it will return at some point, as it was, truly, one of the best comedies to come out of the UK in recent years.

Once Upon A Time‘ airs on Netflix in the UK, with Season 7 expected to land on Saturday, 7th October 2017.
