Of course, then ABC decided to keep showing her as Jasmine in promos, so that kind of blew that. I totally agree.... marketing teams love doing that. Though in this case it's not just ABC who spoiled Jasmine. Jasmine and her actress were spoiled way back at SDCC. Even Adam and Eddy have commented on it, and normally they like to keep their plot twists a secret. I mean, I don't think it was intended to be a huge secret or anything, as even if we didn't have ABC showing it in promos and the articles about who was cast as Jasmine and such, we would all have been very suspisious of any Arab/Indian female that showed up and is talking to a main character (like Snow) after Aladdin and Jafar were in the premiere, but still.
