It’s definitely one of the main cast. Matt Mitovitch was told by Adam and Eddy that Rumple is the only one who could be ruled out, and it was between the rest of the main cast. Matt’s even got a poll up on his site, with the 8 main cast members as the only options.
Let me try again – since my last post came out so weird.
I respectfully disagree. The only thing Adam & Eddy said is the death could be any of the “regular” cast members other than Robert Carlyle – that can be interpreted beyond the 8 core characters. Matt Mitovitch came up the 8 suspects on his own. No where in that interview does it say Adam & Eddy told him it would be one of the 8 – in fact, they said “any” “regular cast member.” I think this is what it always is – a red herring. Someone may die, and someone may leave the show – but I sincerely doubt it’s one of those 8 core characters. I still think it’ll be Ruby.
