“Charming has always had questions about his family and his father that he thought were answered,” EP Adam Horowitz says. “Charming’s past becomes something very important to his future. We’re going to see him and Snow embarking on some adventure related to that past, and what that’s going to create for them moving forward, which is some unexpected obstacles to that happy ending they’re all trying to live.”

Guess we may finally get to meet Papa Charming? Good, it's about time we finish showing the main cast's parents. If we get Charming's dad, that means we only need Rumple's mom and Hook's mom, and we will have seen all the main cast's parents. As far as who Charming's father is: they haven't really explained how the LOUS works yet, except that it puts people's stories on pause, if that means actually freezing the people in time, could The Count of Monte Cristo be Charming's father? Out of all the new cast revealed, he seems the most likely. Also, he fights with Snow and Charming, but that could be explained by he is being controlled by Serum Queen, or he simply doesn't realized Charming is his son. Remember Charming was quite young when his father "died", so it is possible he won't recognize him, especially if he would assume his son would be older (which he would be, had it not been for the 28 years Charming was frozen in time due to Regina's Dark Curse).
