Off the top of my head: Regina, Gold, Hook, Cora, George, Greg, and Tamara were all antagonists at some point in the present day of this season. The makers already said so that she may be the villain of the season. “It’s not like this Evil Queen arc will be all done by December,” Horowitz says. http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/28/once-upon-time-season-6-evil-queen-spoilers

And anyway, Francisco? Wonder who that could be if official later on. Long for Francis LOL. "May" being the key word. Also, they could end the Serum Queen stuff in 611, and that statement will still be true, because the last episode until after the new year is 610. Point is, we don't know when they will end the Serum Queen, but I don't think we can assume she will be around for 621/622. A good example is Cora in Season 2, she was around from 202 to 216, a good chunk of the season, but not the whole thing.
