Or Talia from Talia sun and moon another version of sleeping beauty. Or some like Brynhildr who is one of the first sleeping beauties she is from the Volsunga Saga she is place in a castle on a mountain asleep in a ring of flames. They have already done different versions of the characters, we have two sleeping beauties and two little mermaids, for example. That being said, they are still going to be doing popular versions of the stories, that many people will recognize and the things your talking about sound very niche. True tho it would be nice to see them add some of the earlies refereces to the stories and if you havent read them you should its interesting to see the differences

I'm sure it is, but I still don't see them being added to Once. Part of the reason Once uses the Disney version of stories so often is because they know many people will know those versions of the story, and will understand it. Having a person named Talia be a sleeping beauty wouldn't give people the same understand as having them named Briar Rose or Aurora. With a show like this, you want to reach the largest audience possible, so the show can continue.
