During the San Diego Comic-Con, a lot of news was revealed regarding the new season of Once Upon a Time. And we are so excited about the additions they are making. The new faces on Once Upon a Time will open the doors for so many great storylines.
When the season starts in September, we will be introduced to an all-new Aladdin storyline. So that means the introduction of Aladdin, obviously, Jafar, well-duh, and of course Jasmine. During the famed festival, a video was featured showing the opening scene of their introduction. So who will be take the responsibility of bringing these amazing new characters to life?
Deniz Akdeniz (Aladdin)
Deniz has been around for a while but hasn’t reached an a-list status yet. He can be seen in numerous television series, like Rush Hour (2016), Code Black (2016), and Perception (2015). He has also been featured in quite a few films, like The Water Divider (2014) and Puppy (2005). His exotic good looks will make it very easy to watch him as the famous street-rat.
Oded Fehr (Jafar)
Famous for some of the biggest roles in movie history, and under appreciated, Oded has graced our theaters for the last two decades. Whether he was playing a sexy male gigolo in Deuce Bigalow, Male Gigolo (1999) or fighting an apocalypse of zombies and company corruption in Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004), he always provides an amazing performance. My favorite role for him would have to be Faris al-Farik in Sleeper Cell (2005). Fun fact: Oded played a robber in the TV mini-series Arabian Nights in 2000. So he’s definitely moving up in the ranks.
Who Else is Coming To Storybrooke?
James Marsters
Known for his days as Spike on Buffy The Vampire Slayer: The Series, I am so excited to see him come to the fairy tale filled town. Although his role on the show is not yet clear, he can be seen in the special features hanging out with the devilishly beautiful Cruella De Vil in the underworld. This should be interesting.
Giles Matthey
Fairly new to the scene, Matthey has been pretty fortunate to get on some pretty big shows. His first role was a guest spot on The Good Wife, one of the biggest shows in recent history. Shortly after, he was featured in Jobs (2013) alongside Ashton Kutcher. His biggest role has been 24: Live Another Day (2014) as Jordan Reed. I will be looking forward to seeing who he plays in the upcoming season. It’s been said that he will play a big part with Rumpel and Belle. Hmm.
I will keep you posted when I hear more.
