Once Upon a Time Revival Set for Disney+ soon



On February 6, 2018, the Once Upon a Time fans were shocked to hear that the ABC hit show was going to end with its current season seven. Now, we can exclusively confirm that — after months of discussion — the show is going to get a season eight on a new home: Disney+.

However, there's another twist on this tale: Original executive producers/showrunners Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis will not return to their duties. Instead, new showrunner Truest Believer is set to direct the season.

Lana Parrilla, Andrew J. West, Dania Ramirez, Mekia Cox, Colin O'Donoghue and Adelaide Kane are confirmed to be returning this season, with JoAnna Garcia Swisher promoted, portraying both Ariel and her Wish Realm version. Also, new in the Once Upon a Time Universe are Richard Madden and Amanda Seyfried, portraying the couple of Count Dracula and Charlotte LaBouff, respectively. About characters like Zelena and Tilly, the showrunner says: "It doesn't mean they won't be important. We couldn't make more than 9 regulars, but they'll be surely important".

The eighth season of Once Upon a Time hits screens in late December, or early January.
