Any sign of Jafar at all????
Kat had confirmed that Jafar was filming for 615, and there was that studio photo that showed Oded Fehr’s chair. Guess he just hasn’t been filming on location.
Anyway, looks like there will definitely be a young David for 612, as one of the kids’ audition videos are up:

Maybe a child version of Gideon?
And I think this actress might be our Tiger Lily, unless she really is a red herring for Pocahontas:
I felt so good about my audition today so I took myself out to Universal Studios lol… heyyyy single rider lines are theee best!

She mentioned auditioning last week and she recently followed Adam, the OUAT account, and ABC.

Happy to say that I felt more invested watching tonight’s episode than last week’s. I guess part of it could be that I’ve taken the time to absorb the first two episodes and understand the show more. Could also be that premiere crammed so much exposition down our throats to introduce us to what the show is about, while this is a standard episode with enough time to breath. Episode 2 last week was also better than episode 1, after all. Still not the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I’m definitely intrigued enough to want to watch the full Season as it airs.
The highlight of the episode for me was Tip’s storyline. Not only is it hard enough coming to terms with her sudden magical sex change, but she’s in such disbelief when it’s revealed that she was originally born this way all along. How would anyone comprehend that? It also must have been so surreal for her when Jack suddenly tried to kiss her, considering she viewed him as a close friend and once believed to be the same gender. Tragic that the freaking out accidentally caused Jack’s death. So now she has an inner-conflict over both her sexuality and how to cope with killing her best friend.
I can totally see it being a red herring for Moana. Just like how they looked for āRumpleās Motherā for Merida and āSinbad and that other arabian princessā for Aladdin and Jasmine. I know the Polynesian people are not even remotely close to Native Americans, but this could just be a decoy to polynesian people, and both groups have roughly the same skin tone.
Tiger Lily is known for living on Neverland, which is an island. Moanaās entire thing is that she lived on an island and wanted to sail on the sea. And it even fits with the Hook tie-in he owns a ship and sails on the sea.
We also have Ariel and Eric coming back, who are currently stuck on an island, which could be Motonui, Moanaās island.
And the whole āsheās willing to risk her life for others, and will do it even faster if it benefits herā? Moana fled her island to save her island, but she also did it so she could finally see what lied beyond the reef. It kinda benefited her.
The character description (other than the native american part) actually fits Moana more than Pocahontas and even Tiger Lily herself.
So to me, it could be Tiger Lily, Pocahontas, Moana or some other character we donāt know about. I am putting my bet on Moana. The movie is the current Disney blockbuster and it wonāt surprise me if they introduce her soon in attempt to help the rating.
The issue with this is that the actors auditioning would see “Native American” just like us. The purpose of a casting call is to draw out specific types of actors, so race isn’t something that would be lied about. Even when they lied about casting for Rumple’s mother, they were still looking for someone who was Scottish. The actors don’t find out whether a casting call is a red herring or not until after the fact. Karen David talked about how she didn’t know she was auditioning for Jasmine until she literally arrived for her audition.
