I found a picture of Andrew Airlie, and is it me or does he look like an older version of Colin? If it was intentional, they might be still making a slight nod to that tradition.

I’m not sure tradition is their sole guide here.

May 1, 2013 at 12:15 am #190200kfchimeraParticipantYes it is nontraditional–but it makes me wonder. Knowing the tradition, they could easily have done something along these lines to let Colin play the role (blonde with grey touches wig, no guyliner, have him seated so we don’t see the limp…shave him clean 😆 .)
That they bothered to cast someone else, even knowing they had to scale back Colin’s scenes this year, rather than letting him have a go at this–makes me wonder. Do they plan a bigger arc for George Darling…..Maybe running the Home Office?

Well, George’d have to be as long lived as Gold and Neal for him to be able to do it in present day, but I like the speculation that he may have a connection to The Home Office. I could see him as the one who gave birth to it after losing his children to magic, maybe never even seeing them again. There are, after all, pictures of the Lost Boys in Stevenson from the finale, potentially suggesting that they arrived at Storybrooke at some point, and I think it was mentioned that Freya Tingley, who we now know plays Wendy, was with them.

He does look a bit Colin-ish, particularly with the stubble. K&H like to give little nods to things they can’t full on incorporate into the show, so I could see them giving a nod to that tradition of the two characters being played by the same actor.

This is a cool idea, and I could imagine him calling such an organisation “The Home Office” if his mission was to try and bring his children home.

I'm really curious to see the context those Lost Boys appear in. If they stowed away when Hook left NL, then that would explain them being in SB. But there's also the chance that the pics were just of the actors hanging out on the dock before getting onto the ship to film something, so perhaps the scene they shot wasn't actually set in SB. Though I do have a vague recollection of some scene that involved kids running down the street? Will have to see if I can find it to see if I'm just mis-remembering. Pretty sure that Freya, and the other girl (Laine?), were mentioned as being seen on set on the same day that the Lost Boys were hanging around.

Not in the movies. Bobby Driscoll voiced him in the Disney film, and Jeremy Sumpter played him in the 2003 film.
