With thanks to our very own RG for sending in the question…
Now that Once Upon a Time has cast both Ariel and Eric, can you give us anything new on what their story might be? – Jacquelyn
I already slapped my theory onto the news story announcing Eric’s casting, but I can add this: Series cocreator Adam Horowitz, when asked to describe Once’s Ariel in three words, effectively evokes her classic characterization: “Adventurous. Spitfire. Romantic.” And then we joked about how the Little Mermaid had to move to Cleveland, because, well, Adam and I are nerdy Yankee fans.
Adventurous – Pirates are that.
Spitfire – Hook is definitely that.
Romantic – He’s been dedicated to his love for about 300 years.
Perfect match much? 😉
