    Once Upon a Time has cast Faran Tahir as the famed Captain Nemo from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, EW has learned exclusively.

    The Dallas and Warehouse 13 alum will play the hardened leader of the Nautilus submarine, who’s a zealous believer in a cause that takes him from 20,000 leagues under the sea to the destiny that he won’t let anyone prevent him from achieving.

    “We’re thrilled to give a Once Upon a Time spin to the classic character of Captain Nemo from one of our favorite Disney films, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,” executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis say. “We’re excited to see his mythology merge with Storybrooke’s own captain — Hook [Colin O’Donohue]. If for no other reason than to see the Jolly Roger go up against a submarine.”

    Looks like we were right. Episode 6 is going to feature Hook and be based on 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

    TV Line has posted some additional info:

    Once Upon a Time is going 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea to reveal Captain Nemo’s connection to Hook.
    The ABC drama has tapped Faran Tahir (American Crime, Warehouse 13) to play the hardened leader of the Nautilus submarine in Season 6, EW.com reports.

    Nemo is described as a zealous believer in a cause, which takes him from ~69,047 miles under the sea to a destiny that he won’t let anyone prevent him from achieving. His mythology will merge with that of Storybrooke’s own captain, Hook.
    Once Upon a Time Season 6 premieres Sunday, Sept. 25 at 8/7c on ABC; Tahir appears in Episode 6.

    I so hope the Storybrooke clan have to search for this guy because then their mission is Finding Nemo.

    All magic comes with a price!

    We guessed right on both points but how exactly do these two characters know each other?

    Your question is pointless or plot, the question is more, how is that Hook kept the same age, when appears  that he spent more time outside Neverland, than actually in NVL( unless captain Nemo was also in NVL), but then again, the answer to this question is the same to the other question.

    All these things happened either before he went to Neverland or when he was doing deliveries for Pan.

    They also have the option to do Hook flashbacks during the missing year. There was that extended period of time following when he re-took the Jolly Roger from Blackbeard, but before he traded his ship back to Blackbeard to get back to the Land Without Magic.

    I actually think that’s the best option. Prior to NVL gets messy since he was supposedly sold into service with Liam; and doing errands for Pan (like getting cake??) always struck me as super lame given the powers of NVL
