Little John would be there for Emma’s sake.
Actors cost money. Emma and Little John have maybe spoken 2 words to each other. He’s not worth the money it would cost to bring him in for a fourth-tier character to comfort a character that he’s almost never interacted with.
At the end of the day, we don’t know yet and debating this is nonsense at this point. You think it’s Hook. Fine. I think it’s Robin. Fine. We’ll just have to wait and see if it’s either of those.
I’ll accept either one. I am just not jumping to any conclusions until the episodes air. I found these links that seem to show that Robin might still alive and that Sean still seems to be filming.
