A beautiful bookworm and a pretty werewolf are making their way back to ABC's Once Upon a Time this October.

We can exclusively report that former series regulars Meghan Ory and Emilie de Ravin are returning to Once Upon a Time in the of the show's.

Both actresses had recurring roles during the first season and were promoted to the main cast in the second season. While Ory left towards the end of the season, de Ravin continued on the show until the end of Season Six, leaving along with several other cast members for the reboot that happened on the show for Season Seven.

Ory returned several times after her exit in late Season Two -- first in four episodes of the Wicked Witch arc during the second half of Season Three, and then in three episodes of Season Five, which introduced the character's romance with Dorothy Gale. De Ravin -- who was previously mistakenly reported not to appear in Season Eight -- returned twice for the seventh season to explain her character's absence through a Pixar's Up-inspired episode which told the story of Belle's death.

So far, the actresses are only reported to appear in this episode, and aren't expected to participate of the rest of Season Eight. "It's so fun to get back to the show", Meghan Ory reveals. "Ruby's love story with Dorothy was only shown in one episode, and I'm glad we'll be able to explore it more now that we're getting a centric for us."

"While last season finished Belle and Rumple's love story, there are chapters of her life we didn't really get to finish before, and now we will", Emilie de Ravin teased. "I'm excited for you to see it."

Once Upon a Time returns on October 5, 2018, on the Once Upon a Time Wiki.
