EW Spoiler Room 8/17 – Henry and Hook

Exactly. Sounds about right to me.

There’s a 4 to 5 year gap between when we last saw Henry at the end of Season 6 and when he leaves Storybrooke to go to the new Enchanted Forest, since it’s mentioned that Henry finished high school. Then there’s probably at least another 5 years before Henry meets Cinderella, given the aging from Jared Gilmore to Andrew J. West. Then Lucy herself looks around 10. So that would add up to about 20 years.

Andrew West is only 33, not 38. He could easily have passed for 28, and he doesn’t look old enough to be pushing 40. I would have said it’s only been about 15 years, but I’m not one of the writers.

I hope they don’t get down into the weeds of how old everyone is because they never seem to be able to count properly. They also seem to constantly forget that it takes nine months to have a baby. We do know though that Henry leaves Storybrooke at 18 and that he looks significantly older when he meets Cinderella. He has his Enchanted Forest clothes on and he is the older actor at that point, so i think that saying that at least five years went by at that point seems reasonable. I think they are going to continue with the some time in the future kind of captions, so it isn’t going to be really clear. I still think that it will be closer to 20 years from the last seen Henry at 14 years old which would make older Henry around 34. I am not saying 20 years from 18 year old Henry, but 20 years from 14 year old Henry.
