There’s a new villain in town on “Once Upon a Time,” and she might have something in common with the show’s other big bads—it’s possible that she’s related to Henry.
A Dec. 22 report by TV Line speculates that the Wicked Witch (Rebecca Mader) will end up being the sister of Regina (Lana Parrilla). It was already revealed that Henry’s family tree will expand by two spots during season 3, and one of those places will likely be filled by a Snowing baby. So could the other family member be the Wicked Witch?
It is possible that Regina has a sister she doesn’t know about. Her father could have had an affair, or perhaps her mother had another daughter. Some TV Line readers are even speculating that the Wicked Witch is the daughter of Cora and Rumple—the two did have a little fling. Maybe Rumple didn’t know that Cora had his child, or perhaps he’s been hiding this juicy tidbit of info from everyone else.
The “Once Upon a Time” creators kind of hinted that Rumple and Belle will have some sort of relationship issues during the second half of the season, so maybe this big secret is what causes a rift. But of course Rumple has to turn up alive first.
Some Oncers are sick of all the show’s villains being related to Henry, but it’s possible that Rebecca Mader isn’t the second branch being added to his family tree. Christopher Gorham was also cast as an unnamed character, so it’s possible that he’s going to join the fairy tale family. However, the best theory about his identity is that he’s Emma’s foster brother, which means that he’s probably not a magical being from a land far, far away. Then again, Neal seemed like an average guy from the “real” world, and look at who he turned out to be.
Some fans want the Wicked Witch to end up being Maleficent’s sister, and they’ve pointed out that Rebecca Mader resembles Maleficent actress Kristin Bauer van Straten. The Wicked Witch did have an evil sister in “The Wizard of Oz,” and she wanted to avenge her death. If the Wicked Witch is aware of the way Regina treated Maleficent, it’s easy to see why she’d consider the (formerly) Evil Queen an enemy. However, Emma would be the Wicked Witch’s Dorothy since she’s the one who actually killed Maleficent.
Since Maleficent’s name is being brought up again, here’s a question for “Once Upon a Time” fans: In the midseason finale, did you notice that the Black Fairy’s wand that Blue had hidden was made from a black unicorn horn? Since Maleficent had a pet black unicorn, do you think that the wand is connected to her or her maybe-sister somehow?
And one final question: Do you want the Wicked Witch to be related to Henry, Maleficent, or no one?

(just my headcanon)December 24, 2013 at 4:14 pm #233615TheWatcherParticipantno, she is probably Cora’s sister
(just my headcanon)That works for me too. Either way, Regina needs to be an only child for me. I feel that sometime in her life, she would have discovered she had a sister. She has an all seeing mirror afterall >> even if it were kept a secret, I feel somehow someway she would have known. If WickedSisters happens, it will take a really big stretch of my imagination to accept that Regina was blind to this the whole time.

We have very little to go on except that almost all the OZ references happen around Regina (with the exception of two).
All we know is that the character is green and is after Regina.
We won’t know more until after the holidays.

I want this and that theory on the Wand is interesting.
Oz references has been made by Rumble and Neal about the slippers, Snow and Emma had the sleeping powder the poppy seeds. The only thing missing is the Witch, Broom, and the monkeys I believe. Although the first time we saw the monkeys was when Emma tried to leave town the first time.
Just because Rumple made a comment to Regina about using too much magic will turn you green I don’t think this means Regina and the Witch are related.

Regina said the line about turning green, not Rumple.
Here is a complete list of every Oz reference in the show so far. Most of them have happened either BY Regina or in the presence of her. But there are exceptions, of course.
While I personally don’t want the Wicked Witch and Regina to be related (sorry WR. I’m a little tired of the constant “omg look how crazy our family is” drama) it would be a VERY ONCE thing to do.
Mal’s sister would be fine.
As for the Black Fairy….maybe. But TVLine did say that insiders said that the two were not one and the same. It could be a mislead but it could also be a giant red herring.
My own personal headcanon is just that Regina and WWW tangled in the past, but are unrelated.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"December 25, 2013 at 2:24 am #233670GaultheriaParticipantI’d like it if the WWW is the third of the Weird Sisters, the first two being Malcom’s creepy spinner friends.
