Once Upon a Time Season Eight Rearranges Main Cast

Once Upon a Time's newest show runner has some bad and good news for fans of the shows. The bad news is that Season 7's stars Dania Ramirez and Andrew J. West will be demoted to a recurring role, as the show runner, and they agreed that they weren't going to fit as members of the main cast.

However one of season seven's recurring characters, Adelaide Kane's Ivy Belfry/Drizella, will be joining the main cast, a move planned before the demotion of Ramirez and West, show runner Schroeswald says about this news: "While we love Dania and Andrew we realized that the cast was getting too full and that we couldn't really fit them in, so they volunteered to recur, making it easier for us and giving them more free time for other acting. Addy has been apart of our plan since day 1 and we can't wait for everyone to see how her arc will go."
