I wonder if they do oz if they will be able to use any of the story from Wicked. I think I want her to be both Morgan and Rumple’s mother or Elphaba and Rumple’s mother. If they go with Morgan and they bring in Camelot I want Merlin or I suppose I would be okay with a knight of the round table to be Charming’s dad. Hmmm…and if Anastasia ends up being Cinderella’s stepsister then I want the other stepsister Drusilla to be the Wicked Witch of the West. Scratch Elphaba being Rumple’s mother. That would be awesome….tho given the story of Oz that would also make the Red Queen the Wicked Witch of the East as well…not sure if that would work but she is the Red Queen which means it would make sense for her to have ruby slippers…okaaay and my imagination is going wild…You should hear my ideas for what I would do at Disney’s Hollywood Studios if I had any power.

But shouldn’t she be dead in present day, assuming that whole traditional story went down some time before Jefferson visited Oz to find that the slippers had moved on?
I’m late to the party but… Nope. She could be Glinda and Dorothy could have “moved the slippers on” as per the story. Dorothy’s house landed on a different witch and squished her, taking her shoes afterwards. Then she melted the Wicked Witch before meeting Glinda at the end.
So ideas… “iconic villian” huh? And much loved. Hmm.
I like the idea of the Snow Queen, but suspect that isn’t well known to children outside of Europe (I’m certainly not familiar with it – I looked it up after going on the Flying Trunk ride at Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen) They could have grabbed the rights to Narnia when the recent contract came up for renewal, although that has now been sorted out. (Walden Media no longer involved, but film series still going with another studio working with 20th Century Fox. Next film will be The Silver Chair. More Eustace!)
There have been many Oz hints, so a Wicked Witch (whether East or West…. or a combination with Glinda) could make sense. Cruella de Ville is iconic but limited in storytelling unless they soup it up by mixing in another character.
Morgana, Morgan la Fay, Morgana of the Fairies…. that would be good. We’ve had Lancelot pop up, so more Camelot/Arthurian stuff isn’t beyond the pale or going off on a limb. I think it would sour some of Charming’s story though if it turns out he’s King Arthur’s long lost son though. The whole point is that he was a better Prince than many born to that role, and I like that about the way they’ve done the Prince Charming story on OUAT. Also not sure what they would do with the Arthurian legend either – go the Merlin TV show route, the Mists of Avalon route (Rumple’s Girl – agree. Good book. Bit wanky in parts but very engaging, decent read) or the more classical route. There’s lots of options there.

That’s what I was saying, that Glinda is really the only Oz Witch option for Rebecca to be potentially playing in present day, because according to the t-word, Dorothy (most likely) dropped the house on the Witch of the East, then defeated the Witch of the West, then moved on with the slippers, all before Jefferson went to Oz, which was way back before Regina even went all EQ.
For those interested, i posted a theory about Wicked Glinda awhile back, https://oncepodcast.com/forums/topic/glinda-the-wicked-witch-of-oz/ Also, maybe she is the one who casts the curse? Glinda is almost God-like in the books… Very powerful enough to cast a curse that is opposing the curse that is

And, for me, what this means is that her costume must be recognizable enough if VCF isn’t close enough to hear what is being said. (I think).
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Quite possibly. Though when Chris Gorham was on set, people who were watching heard the crew calling him Henry, so perhaps they overheard her name as well? I prefer the identifiable costume evidence idea though. And I wanna seeeeeee.

Of the choices we’ve presented I would say the person with the most recognizable costume could be Glinda or Cruella, especially the latter with her hair. It would be hard to identify Morgan Le Fey by costume.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Hmm I like the Glinda theory but she isn’t really classed as an iconic villain, so wicked witch of the west sounds more likely to me.
