ONCE - Once Upon a Time podcast
Reviews, theories, and talk about ABC's Once Upon a Time TV show
The Lion King makes the most sense even if the casting calls don’t line up with the characters in the movie. I dunno though…it wouldn’t surprise me if we’re all wrong.
Worth mentioning that they didn’t specify race in the call. While theoretically the show could cast anyone for Scar and Mufasa, it would be nice (very nice) to cast actors of African descent to stay in the location of the Lion King movie. (Of course, since the Lion King is really just Hamlet, they might be thinking that…but..*shrug)
They must feel pretty confident about a new season if they’re casting characters that are going to spill over. Even if it’s a short season or anything.
It doesn’t sound like Cain/Able and it doesn’t sound like Mufasa/Scar either.
oh….kay?
Nothing like waiting until the last possible second….
I’ve gotta say, I definitely think something is going on behind the scenes at ABC with ONCE. Besides the fact that there has been barely any promotion for it’s return, it’s now safe to say that we definitely aren’t even getting a recap special before it’s return. This is the first time since Season 2 that we haven’t gotten one and being the 100th episode, you’d think that it’d be the one that makes the most sense to air a special before hand.
Matt and I have been talking about this quite a bit as well. We’re not sure what it means. We both still think that we’re getting a season 6 but that it is being made clear that it’s the final seasons and I’m starting to wonder it’s not going to be an abbreviated one. With that said the lack of 100th episode promotion is *strange.*
Wait till you see the dress Regina wears later in the episode. It’s one of my new favorites.
I know JMo is just being dramatic and playing into her audience’s (read: shippers) hands but seriously, what a terrible thing to say about your character.
*sigh*
