Perhaps that was because he was younger, and therefore could get away with being more expensive. Henry nowadays, like the most of the characters, seems to be a husk of his former self. Understandable, since he's what 13 (like 20 in real life :P) and has seen more death than anyone should.

Out-of-universe, I imagine Henry's actor is either bored or gotten lazy with his acting on OUAT - but who would quit the show? He's a series regular, gets paid for episodes he isn't even in, and doesn't have to try that hard it seems.
