The Dark One’s daddy issues are about to surface in a very big way.
British actor Stephen Lord has been cast as Rumplestiltskin’s father on Once Upon a Time, TVGuide.com has learned exclusively.
Once Upon a Time: Will Rumplestiltskin save Henry or himself?
On the series, we’ve learned that the father of a young Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) was branded a coward, so Rumple was desperate to prove he wouldn’t follow in dear old dad’s footsteps. But when he was drafted to fight in the ogre war, a seer prophesized that he would die in battle, so Rumple intentionally injured himself to sidestep the prophecy. Unfortunately, that also led him to also be branded a coward.
Lord (EastEnders, Shameless) will appear via flashback in at least one episode, slated to air Sunday, Nov. 17. Suffice it to say, we’ll get to learn exactly why he wasn’t such a great father.
Once Upon a Time bosses dissect Peter Pan’s motivations
“We’ve hinted in the past that his father was a coward and that his father’s name was something that haunted him and that his father left him,” executive producer Edward Kitsis recently told TVGuide.com. “This is a man who wants to break the cycle of his past. He wants to be a good father, but it’s like that quote, ‘I can resist everything but temptation,’ so that’s also his weakness.”
Once Upon a Time airs Sundays at 8/7c on ABC.

Good to finally have this news.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Tiny detail here but he has blue eyes
Wait, is Rumple’s daddy really named Colin? ‘Cause you know who has really blue eyes? Colin O’Donoghue!

O_o I wouldn’t know how to handle this. Cause that means Hook and his brothers wife ran off together and then Hook gave his nephew to the Lost Boys and his now trying to rescue his great nephew and FAMILY TREE CUT AND PASTE TIME.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Saw this on Tumblr: From the 3×5 promo, we caught a glimpse of one of the crewmen will young Killian Jones!
okay, but
the longer i look at this photo of Stephen Lord (cast as Rumple’s father…with a casting call of COLIN)
the more convinced i become that he and “Liam”—whatever his relation to Killian is, be it blood or semi-adoptive—are the same person.
Face shape…jawline…nose…

We need an official 305 press release with the guest cast list STAT to resolve this issue. He does look kinda similar, but then, Rumple’s father is supposed to be in 308, not 305.
