for the characters of the show —
Goodwin and Dallas (Snow White
and Prince Charming) recently
tied the knot and are expecting
their first child. The two met and
fell in love on set, and Goodwin's
pregnancy was written into sea-
son 3.
The show has been renewed
for a fourth season, and there is
already some buzz about what's
to come. Rumor has it that there
may be a "Frozen" connection in
the new season.
"We would be completely hon-
ored if Kristen Bell or Idina Men-
zel wanted to do our show," co-
series creator Eddy Kitsis recently
told E! Online.
To make the rumor even better,
Bell ("Veronica Mars"), who
voiced Anna in Disney's "Frozen"
(2013), said she might be inter-
ested. "That would be unbeliev-
able," Bell told E! Online. "I love
that character of Anna so much,
she's so exactly who I wanted to
see when I was five years old, so
she's really close to my heart."
Don't miss all the magic of the
"Once Upon a Time" season 3 fi-
nale on Sunday, May 11, on ABC.
Josh Dallas at WonderCon 2014
last month. "So that's going to be
great. You're going to know who
cast the curse, you're going to
know why we're all back and why
none of us remember that missing
year."
"I'm really glad we get to go
back to Oz again," teased Mader,
also at WonderCon. "We get a lot
of stuff in Oz, and we get to meet
Glinda [played by Sunny Mabrey,
"Memphis Beat"] any minute
now. Glinda and Dorothy are
coming. So, that was really fun.
That felt like we were in a whole
different TV show. It just felt like
'Once Upon a Time in Oz.' There's
really fun stuff coming up with
that."
There may also be mention of
the Tin-Man, Lion and Scarecrow
coming in the series, as Zelena
has taken Regina's heart, Charm-
ing's courage and Rumples-
tiltskin's brain. At WonderCon,
Dallas mentioned something that
may hint at who really cast the
curse. "There's going to be a deci-
sion made back in Fairy Tale Land,
between Regina, Snow and
Charming, that's going to affect
everyone," he said.
Fans are wondering if Henry
will ever get his memories of Sto-
rybrooke and his family back.
"Henry's memory issues will be
decided before the end of the
season," series co-creator Adam
Horowitz told TVLine. "One way
or another."
Throughout the second half of
season 3, Zelena has tried to get
close to Snow's unborn baby, and
when she failed, she divulged her
plans to take the baby for wicked
purposes. Now that the infant is
born, the town is on red alert and
ready to protect the little one
from Zelena.
Speculation from Belle and her
research hints that Zelena needs
the baby to complete the first-ev-
er successful time-traveling curse.
Her plan involves making sure
Snow, Emma, Henry and Regina
were never born.
Some of the show's storyline
has mirrored real life, as much as
a story about fairy tale characters
can. It seems true love isn't only

veryone loves a good fairy
tale, especially those filled
with magic, adventure and
true love.
Fans of ABC's "Once Upon a
Time" know well that this show
comes with all three, and then
some. Catch the two-hour season
3 finale on Sunday, May 11, on
ABC.
"Once Upon a Time" follows
everyone's favorite fairy tale
characters, from Snow White to
Ariel to Captain Hook — and
many traditional heroes and vil-
lains in between. The show has
taken place in the Enchanted For-
est, Neverland, Oz, Wonderland
— all the best places fairy tales
have to offer.
Jennifer Morrison ("House
M.D.") stars as Emma Swan, the
only daughter of Snow White (Gin-
nifer Goodwin, "Walk the Line,"
2005) and Prince Charming (Josh
Dallas, "Thor," 2011). Just after her
birth, Emma was sent away as the
only hope to one day save the
kingdom from Regina (Lana Parril-
la, "Miami Medical"), the evil
queen who cast a curse that trans-
ported all of the kingdom's inhab-
itants to Storybrooke with no
memory of who they really are.
Rounding out the town's main
characters are Belle (Emilie de
Ravin, "Lost"), Rumplestiltskin
(Robert Carlyle, "SGU Stargate
Universe"), Little Red Riding
Hood (Meghan Ory, "Intelli-
gence"), Captain Hook (Colin
O'Donoghue, "The Rite," 2011)
and Emma's long-lost biological
son, but also Regina's adoptive
son, Henry (Jared Gilmore, "Mad
Men").
In the mid-season finale, we
left the characters just after they
defeated Peter Pan (Robbie Kay,
"Pirates of the Caribbean: On
Stranger Tides," 2011) in Never-
land, and Regina had just cast a
new curse to send all of the char-
acters back to their homes in the
Enchanted Forest. Emma and
Henry — who are of this world,
not the Enchanted Forest —
would not be going back with
them, but instead to a new life
filled with fake memories of their
life together in New York.
The mid-season premiere fea-
tured Hook helping Emma get her
memories back in order to save
her family, who had been trans-
ported back to Storybrooke with
no memories of the last year.
That's where Zelena the Wick-
ed Witch (Rebecca Mader, "Lost")
comes in. Zelena, who is also Re-
gina's half-sister, has cast a curse
to exact revenge on Regina, who
had everything Zelena never had:
proper magic training, their
mother and power. The characters
must team up (once again) to
fight evil and save their families,
this time from Zelena, also known
as the Wicked Witch. This season's
finale will bring a close to all of
the wicked drama that Zelena
brought when she cast the curse.
The title of the two-hour sea-
son finale is "There's No Place
Like Home," which could mean
our favorite fairy tale characters
are finally reunited with their
home in the Enchanted Forest. Al-
ternatively, it could mean that
they come to love Storybrooke
and finally call it their home.
Rumors hint, however, that Zel-
ena may not have been the only
person to cast the curse.
"We're going to go back and
find out who cast this curse," said
Jennifer Morrison as seen in "Once Upon a Time"
We're off to see the Wizard
'Once Upon a Time' season finale heads to Oz
