    Once Upon a Time is officially going Greek.

    An ABC spokesperson confirms for TVLine that relative newcomer Jonathan Whitesell and Hannibal‘s Kacey Rohl have been cast as Hercules and Meg, to appear in the 13th episode of Season 5, titled “Labor of Love.”
    The castings come on the heels of TVLine reporting that Ally McBeal‘s Greg Germann will recur this spring as “The Distinguished Gentleman,” which some have speculated is code for Hades.

    Additionally, TVLine has learned bailee-madisonthat Bailee Madison (The Good Witch, Trophy Wife) will reprise her role as Young Snow White in the same episode (the second to air after the long winter break). Madison last appeared on Once in March 2013.

    Whitesell and Rohl are currently set for just the one episode.

    How strange, so Herc and Meg might only be one offs?

    I had a theory that Snow learned archery from the same guy as Hercules. Philoctetes was a famed archer in greek mythology. I wonder if that will happen.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if they were one off’s. I think it’s more Hades’s story than Herc’s and Meg’s.

    Also, oh Bailee. Fun.

    Makes me wonder if they’re finally paying attention to all the criticism about current storyarcs spending so much time on the recurring guest stars, and not enough on the core cast? I mean, one off guest were pretty common back in Season 1, so maybe they’re going back to that direction?
