It’s definitely one of the main cast. Matt Mitovitch was told by Adam and Eddy that Rumple is the only one who could be ruled out, and it was between the rest of the main cast. Matt’s even got a poll up on his site, with the 8 main cast members as the only options.
Let me try again – since my last post came out so weird.
I respectfully disagree. The only thing Adam & Eddy said is the death could be any of the “regular” cast members other than Robert Carlyle – that can be interpreted beyond the 8 core characters. Matt Mitovitch came up the 8 suspects on his own. No where in that interview does it say Adam & Eddy told him it would be one of the 8 – in fact, they said “any” “regular cast member.” I think this is what it always is – a red herring. Someone may die, and someone may leave the show – but I sincerely doubt it’s one of those 8 core characters. I still think it’ll be Ruby.
[adrotate group="5"]That is what I want to believe that they literally said “A major character is going to die and no series regular other than RC is safe,” and Matt just extrapolated the rest but as we do not have more of their actual conversation? Hard to know. I do love Red but her new show has her as a lead and even if it does not work out, she might want another lead role and do not feel the show “needs” her now. I would be so happy if that were the case but I guess we wait and see if they are pulling a fast one or a long con or what.

I honestly don’t get why anyone would theorize that A&E would resolve a love triangle by killing a character. Because each of the men in the triangle are excellent actors portraying complex characters.
You can put an end to the triangle with dialog. Any writer can end the triangle through Emma’s dialog with either Neal or Hook, or both. It’s easy. I love you. I care about you. I want you in my life. But I’m not in love with you.
Personally I think the character who’s story has played out is Snow. I know Ill get clobbered for saying so, but she’s had her happy ending. She has Charming. She’s made peace with Regina. She’s forgiven her. She made peace with her daughter and her daughter is safe. She brought her family together and made peace with them all. She taught her family many lessons. Hope. Compassion. Trust. Faith. She’s had a huge impact on our characters.
I know she’s about to have a new child, but maybe that’s not her happy ending. Emma was her happy ending. Charming was. Henry was. Adventure was. Charming could go on without her. But I don’t think she could go on without Charming.Phee wrote: It’s definitely one of the main cast.

This was my initial reaction; a way to nicely let Ruby/Red go but then everyone was saying it’s one of the others. So I put that theory on the back burner.

I seem to recall that when asked on Twitter, Matt Mittovich said that the only possibilities were those 8. That he specifically created the slide show of our main characters knowing that it was one of them.

That is correct RG–from TVline
Well all logic is telling me it’s going to be Neal and I really hate having to say that. However, a big part of me is also thinking that it just might be Reggie.
Her story is just about over. We know about her past and we know why she became the EQ. We explored her relationship with Snow, with Daniel, with Rumple, with Cora, with her father, with Henry and with Emma. Everything about the curse has been explained and it’s over and done with. We saw her destroy it. We also know that her fate is NEVER to see Henry again. They said their goodbyes and Henry told her what she needed to hear. She’s not a villain, she’ll always be his mom. But, were her few heroic acts ever enough to change her from villain to heroine? Do villains EVER get their happy endings? Rumple didn’t seem to think so.
Only story left to tell about Reggie is her trying to connect with RH and see if it’s not too late. However, K&H told us that their story would end tragically.
Now we’ve got a new villain coming into the story. WW and her opposition, a potential Glida. I think she’ll be taking over for Reggie. EQ is done and we are moving on to a new villain, a new story. Reggie doesn’t get her happy ending.
Now, I’m hoping it’s neither Reggie nor Neal. If fans were given an opportunity to vote on who goes, I’d put Charming on the top of the list. He bores me. Sorry folks, but he does.

I prefer Charming over Snow. Season 3 Snow annoyed me, particularly in Ariel.
I think it could be Hook that dies. A&E are on set and shows do have a habit of doing a cliffhanger death scene where characters receive a fatal wound in one episode and then die in the next.
All magic comes with a price!

I agree, and I think so do most people who ship either side of the triangle. No one wants it resolved with one of the guys dying, it would be a cheap and unimaginative way to end that storyline. If it IS one of those guys that dies, I like to think that they’d have resolved how Emma feels before the death happens. (My personal interpretation of what they’ve shown us from Emma is that she’s not even actually torn between the two, but you’ll get CSers saying that exact same thing, so I guess it does need to be blatantly spelled out by Emma at some point, because the two different sides have read her interactions with each guy so very differently.)
Personally I think the character who’s story has played out is Snow. I know Ill get clobbered for saying so, but she’s had her happy ending. She has Charming. She’s made peace with Regina.

I know she’s about to have a new child, but maybe that’s not her happy ending. Emma was her happy ending. Charming was. Henry was. Adventure was. Charming could go on without her. But I don’t think she could go on without Charming.I do think they could potentially kill Snow and make it a believable part of the story, it would pack a massive emotional punch if she died in childbirth, or when their new baby is very young. Getting to raise a child is also part of her desired happy ending though, because she was robbed of the chance the first time around. So despite how far her family has come in recent times, killing her and robbing her of the chance to raise her child again would be a pretty depressing way to end her story. I dunno if they’d go there, but it could be a compelling storyline if they did.

Mitovitch seems to be pretty close to Adam and Eddy, he’s a reporter who has their respect, and I can’t see him of all people writing an article like that, narrowing down the death candidates, if it wasn’t based on some solid info he’d been given. Some writers you expect half researched hack job articles from, but Mitovitch isn’t one of those people.
However, K&H told us that their story would end tragically.
ARGH, sorry, pet peeve, but no they didn’t say it would end tragically. Someone in the fandom mis-interpreted an article and half the fandom ended up assuming that OQ is gonna end tragically. Actual source of the quote:
Trying to be on her very best behavior, Regina/Evil Queen will find a surprising love connection in the third episode — perhaps with Robin Hood (Sean Maguire), who will appear on both Once and its Wonderland spinoff. “Regina’s love has to be very manly, and Robin Hood is that,” Parrilla says. “I’m getting very excited.” (Alas, she shouldn’t get too excited, since producers tell me this romance will take a tragic turn.)
Nothing was said about it ending tragically. And I’m reasonably sure that Adam answered a question on Twitter, confirming that said “tragic turn” was when she didn’t go into the pub back in the day.
I think it could be Hook that dies. A&E are on set and shows do have a habit of doing a cliffhanger death scene where characters receive a fatal wound in one episode and then die in the next.
Yeah, I know Adam tweeted recently that they tend to visit the set once a month, but it’d make sense if they wanted to be there during a time when one of their main cast is filming their final scenes, so they can say thank you and goodbye to them in person. We dunno for sure if they’ve moved onto shooting 318 yet, do we? We also dunno how long Adam and Eddy have been in town.
I agree that they have a rapport /respect for Matt, but if they mislead him intentionally, then it could happen. If they said it is HUGE, a major, major character, part of their original core story. Then he said really, main cast? Then they said “None of the main cast are safe except Bobby. This is going to be a very big death. A series regular character is dying and will not return.” I could see him writing it up that way, and then A&E are snickering because they were being deceptive and cryptic and meant a past series regular, not a current one.
