Things will get a bit hairy on Once Upon a Time when the ABC drama introduces its take on Rapunzel.
And filling the iconic role, TVLine has learned exclusively, will be ill-fated Originals witch Alexandra Metz.
Metz will make her debut in the 14th episode of Season 3 — aka soon into the second half, which premieres March 9 — and though nothing at this time is confirmed, there is always the option for additional future appearances.
News of Rapunzel’s arrival was first teased in my Inside Line column; props to commenter Nichole for correctly guessing the role being cast. She wins 250 TVLine Power User Points, which have no cash value.
In addition to her short arc as The Originals‘ Katie, Metz’s TV credits include Chicago Fire and episodes of The Good Wife and Gossip Girl.
Once airs Sundays at 8/7c, with its fall finale scheduled for Dec. 15.

[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Pretty!
So why on Earth is Rapunzel appearing?
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Hm! Guess they aren’t going with how she looks in the Disney film for this one!
I’m glad. ONCE isn’t the Disney films brought to life. I say mix it up! (and I would kill to have my hair be able to do that)
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"This will be interesting given what the casting call said.
“…possibly recurring role of a teenage African-American female who comes across as skittish and timid, having had her naturally curious and determined spirit tempered by years of crippling fear. That said, when put to the test, this lass can reach within and summon the strength to be a hero.”
Sounds like a parallel to Regina in some ways doesn’t it (before everything went downhill of course).
