“Once Upon A Time” has found Belle’s dangerous suitor, Gaston.
The chiseled hunter will be played by “True Blood” alum Wes Brown who’s been cast in an upcoming episode, Variety has learned exclusively.
Gaston’s storyline will take viewers back to Belle’s (Emilie de Ravin) time before she met Rumple (Robert Carlyle), furthering the exploration of “Once Upon A Time’s” twist on Gaston’s role in the “Beauty & the Beast” tale.

Looks like they recast Gaston, though I personally wasn’t a big fan of the Season 1 Gaston.

I personally love this. I was so disappointed in season 1 when Rumple just turned him into a rose and that was it. Gaston is hilarious and significant in Belle’s story. So now, maybe her flashbacks will have some more substance that we are familiar with.
@TheCinemaChic nothing in season 1 storywise has changed

Hmmm, I know that guy from True Blood. Okay, I can buy him as gaston, but storywise, Gaston was still not who he was from the Disney film. We only know he was slightly shallow from Belle’s dialog even though everything we saw of him on screen was pretty noble.
So its either we are getting a retcon of his personality, the same old not so good interpretation of his character, or perhaps in the past he was pretty shallow guy like in the movies and then something (Belle) changed him into what we saw in S1.

Yeah, Gaston #1 was totally lame and wooden but *shrug* whatever. Just add dramaz on top of dramaz. Thats how this show rolls.
I guess something possibly positive to add about this is that it seems like Belle will actually get a centric in 5B.

And possibly pretty soon since they announced this casting. 517 maybe?
