ONCE - Once Upon a Time podcast
Reviews, theories, and talk about ABC's Once Upon a Time TV show
In my opinioit seems the angle at which the pic was taken plus the longer, messier hair is a factor in the major difference, also both the com parison shots are two years old. The pic was taken from above and had close range, cause the illusion of a broader face and the th longer hair is in a teen-like style, causing a more matue look. Jared grew alot between the begining of the first season (When the youger coparison shots were taken) and the end of season 2 filming. The differance is not as major between the end of season 2 and the newest shot.
The pics are begining of season 1 (promo pic), end of season 2 (screenshot), and now
I think a fake story was put in the paper so as to not spoil the season 2 storyline.
