Welcome to Storybrooke, a small town in Maine that you won’t find on any map. This town is full of magic, populated by fairytale characters once cursed by the Evil Queen Regina to live in our world—deprived of their memories and happy endings. Until Emma Swan came to town and changed everything. With the help of her son, Henry, Emma embraced her true identity as the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming—the Savior destined to break the Curse. But even after returning everyone’s memories, Emma’s mission was far from over. With the Curse broken, Mr. Gold (aka Rumplestiltskin) was free to bring magic to Storybrooke. And magic ALWAYS comes with a price…
After six seasons, the residents of the enchanted forest face their greatest challenge yet as The Evil Queen, Captain Hook and Rumplestiltskin join forces with a grown up Henry Mills and his daughter Lucy on an epic quest to once again bring hope to their world and ours. Along the way, new fairy tale characters and old search for true love, find adventure and once again take sides in the struggle of good against evil, as classic tales are once more twisted and reimagined.
“Once Upon a Time” stars Lana Parrilla as the Evil Queen/Regina, Colin O’Donoghue as Hook, Andrew J. West as Henry, Alison Fernandez as Lucy and Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold.

1st Scene: Colin and Mekia (Colin sitting on the bench and Mekia comes in and sits on the other end and they talk for a bit. xx
2nd Scene: Bobby (I couldn’t see what was going on coz it was up the stairs)
3rd: Gabrielle and Dania (Gabrielle gets out of her car and then have conversation with Dania)
Dunno what other scenes as I left when I heard Adelaide not on set. Although I was told at this point all the mains have wrapped, whoever left are the ones left and just one person for night shoot.
Question: On Once Upon a Time, will we see Cinderella’s other evil stepsister, Anastasia? — Rebecca
Ausiello: Yes — at least in flashbacks, seeing as Episode 9 of the “reset’ season (premiering Friday at 8/7c) will feature a tweenage Anastasia. Interestingly, this younger Anastasia, regardless of how she turns out, is described as “a happy and selfless” lass who “loves her sister and step-sister alike.”TVLine 10/3/17
More Once Upon a Time scoop please! — Kate As of now, we’ll be in one new story book when season 7 launches, but the OUAT bosses say they have the freedom to go through multiple books. And with multiple books comes multiple authors — that’s right, Henry’s not the only one! “There has to be one author for each book and I think that is the case,” EP Edward Kitsis says. But EP Adam Horowitz is quick to add: “Different books have different mythologies, so it’s not like we’re going to tell the Author mythology the same way, or the Dark One mythology the same way. There’s going to be new things and new mythology to explore.” ~EW 7/27/2017
I have a question for Once Upon a Time: Can Adam and Eddy tease Episode 4, which is focused on Rumple and brings back Emilie de Ravin? —Liza When I delivered your question, Adam Horowitz described the episode titled “Beauty” as “hugely romantic,” while co-creator Eddy Kitsis said, “It’s our favorite Rumbelle story since ‘Skin Deep.'” ~ TVLine 8/9/2017
Do you know anything more about Regina’s alter-ego on Once Upon a Time? — Braden Bar owner Roni is very, very different from Regina, so prepare yourselves. “She’s given up a little bit on life,” Lana Parrilla tells me. “She seems a little hopeless when we first meet her, and then Henry comes to town and things start to shift a little bit.” But don’t expect his arrival to immediately spark Regina’s memories. “No, there’s nothing there, and I like that. She’s just asleep. She’s not quite in touch with all that stuff yet. A few more things need to happen before she starts getting that feeling. Although, she is inspired by a character, and it shifts her a bit, at the end of the first episode.” ~ EW 8/10/2017
Is there any info you can share for Once Upon a Time about who Henry’s wife will be? —Rebecca Well, the casting call for [NAME REDACTED] describes Lucy’s momma as a “strong-willed, independent woman with a no-nonsense sensibility and a warm heart at her core.” Life hasn’t always been kind to [NAME REDACTED], but she is “sharp and resourceful” and never gives up on herself — or those she believes in. ~ TVLine 6/29/2017
As soon as I saw the Polynesian mask on the portal door in the hat during the Once Upon a Time finale, I knew right away that Lucy’s mother will most likely be Moana. — Roger
Not so fast. “To examine those doors as clues to what season 7 would be is not necessarily what they were there for,” EP Adam Horowitz says. “It’s more of a symbolic thing that’s telling us how big our universe is and that there are many places left to be explored.” So, it’s probably unlikely, but never lose hope!

Official Season Seven Posters and Promotional Material
"We're going to switch to water." ~Emma "What, for drinking?" ~Hook
“Guilt can be as corrosive to the soul as revenge.“ ~ Captain Nemo
"Seek forgiveness. Because whatever happened, it will always stay with you." ~ Captain Nemo
"When it's not your story, bad things happen."
"Just because life isn't what you want it to be right now, doesn't mean you tear it down."
"Things can seem hopeless. When suddenly, someone, gives the rest of us...inspiration."
"Because the first step to a new beginning is imagining that one is even possible."
That was a good SP, showing Alice and that Regina as Roni doesn't seem to recognise Henry. I'd forgotten about the official poster with new Cinderella on the bike but it's really pretty.
I'm looking forward to Anastasia, she unexpectedly became one of my favorite things about the Wonderland series.
Thanks for the new thread.
I'm starting to fear for Anastasia.
If Alice does have her memories, I wonder if she tips off whoever cast the curse about Henry's arrival?
Thanks for the sneak peek! I am curious about what happened to Anastasia if she is not in HH with the others. Sounds like Jacinda could have had at least someone to confide in if they got along, at least before Henry came into the picture.

How does everyone feel about my removing the exit interviews and adding Natalie's with the new cast and returning cast?
I'm fine with it too.
Bookworm25 - luckily we will probably get Regina|Henry flashbacks to EF2 to tide us over until they remember in present day.

We haven't heard anything yet about who will be playing Anastasia, have we? If it's the same actress who played her in Wonderland, that would be a good tie-in; although I'm not sure if the timeline would make sense.
The question made it seem it would be someone younger. I would say that the different versions of Cinderella does kind of solve the plothole that 6.03 did that that there is a third version of Cinderella that Anna is part of
I am guessing it won't be Emma Rigby simply because they said it was a "tweenage" Anesthesia. No way could she pass for 12-13. They "might" get away with Adelaide playing 17-18, but not younger. And I hope if Cinderella is in her teens, they hire someone instead of glasses and/or a ponytail. Though David's Metal Band hair was the worst. It looked like the actors who rotated through Wayne's World as guests.
