The Once Upon a Time season 6 finale airs Sunday, May 14 on ABC. “We’ve been telling a story for six years now for these characters,” Horowitz said, “and now we’re trying to complete the story, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have other stories.” However they said this new direction is not a complete overhaul of the show. Horwitz and Kitsis told Entertainment Weekly that they intended for the show to go in a new direction.

So what does this mean for the Once Upon a Time season finale? The show will center on Rumpelstiltskin (Carlyle), Captain Hook ( Colin O’Donaghue), and Evil Queen/Regina (Parrilla) going forward. “Words cannot do justice what Ginny, Josh, Emilie, Rebecca and Jared brought to ONCE UPON A TIME…each brought unique talent, incredible intelligence, and their own individual bit of magic as they gave life to these iconic characters. Once Upon a Time boss Adam Horowitz released a statement about the exit saying, De Ravin first appeared as Belle in season two and Mader came aboard as Zelena in season three. All three were original cast members along with Morrison, Lana Parrilla, and Robert Carlyle. No word from Josh Dallas, Ginnifer Goodwin, or Jared Gilmore about their departures. It’s been an honor & a privilege to bring Belle to life 🙂 Congrats to Adam & Eddy & the returning cast & crew!! I wish you all a wonderful 7th Season!! Much love 💙xoĪ post shared by Emilie de Ravin on at 6:28pm PDT Massive thank you to all the fans for your incredible love & support towards me & this character over the past 6 yrs.

While I would have loved to continue exploring Belle’s journey, the show has decided to move in a different creative direction. I wanted to tell you guys myself, but it seems the news was already released :/ … I won’t be returning to #onceuponatime for Season 7.
