Are you saying that one of them is not family?
Once Upon A Time Season 4
- Thread starter Dream
- Start date
I would be shocked, if a revelation of this sort were made about the Frozen characters at all, and even more so were it made on Once Upon a Time.
I have to explain?
Elsa's probably related to Ice Cream Lady but was raised by Anna's parents as another daughter of theirs, like Loki and Thor's family.
Flips my Gay Dictionary to "F" for Family.
Family...[fam-uh-lee, fam-lee]...Noun
Fellow Gay People
I don't think Elsa, nor Anna are Family. Ice Cream Lady, though, we don't know enough about her.
Yea, I think somehow, we're going to see Elizabeth Mitchell's Snow Queen related to Elsa (Maybe, it skips Generations or relies on certain common dormant genes that are rarely passed on active by the mother under certain circumstances, or some other filter?)
I have no idea what route they'll take. I'm just guessing.
But we're talking about a fairy tale soap opera, and my scenario fits what little we've seen of the Arendelle Sisters' stoyline:
-Elsa and Anna's mother wanted to relay to them "the truth" before she and her husband died.
-Said mother looked more like Anna (brown-eyed ginger) than Elsa (blue-eyed blonde)
-another blue-eyed blonde in Storybrooke has Elsa's powers.
EM could very well be an aunt...Anna's aunt, but she could also be Elsa's mother, and since she's supposed to be the evil Snow Queen, maybe "the truth" is that Anna's mother - Evil snow Queen's Sister - took Elsa away before her mother could corrupt her, but didn't realize ESQ's powers had been passed on to the child until she and her husband were committed to raising her themselves.
Like I said...just a guess, but the above would be a nice melodramatic soap story...

It's both, there's a light in the prop to cast onto the actors hands etc, then there's comp effects to enhance it.
Making Elisabeth Mitchell's character into Elsa's mother is the most predicable thing in the world.
Either the Snow Queen will lie to Elsa about being her mother and reveal the lie at end of this arc, or the writers will subvert things and not even bother to mention a possible family connection.
Don't expect the relationship between Elsa and Anna to change, they are on loan from Disney and they won't want the Once writers to shake things up too much.

While I agree with the rest of your post, I have to point out that All of the characters on the show are "on loan" from Disney. It hasn't prevented the writers from "shaking things up" so far.
With Disney and ABC it's more like Mom and Dad letting junior have the car for the night.
What I meant on "loan" is that Disney is not letting the Once writers do whatever they want with the Frozen characters. When you loan someone something, you expect to get it back in similar shape.
The Frozen characters on the show feel like they stepped right out of the movie. But other the Disney characters like Snow, Belle, Ariel, Charming, and Hook aren't completely compatible with their animated movie versions.
Also there is a very good chance that the Frozen characters will never come back after this arc is over with. Elsa and Anna will need to go back to Arendelle to rule, and I don't see them sticking around Storybrooke and chilling with Henry.
^^^ True. They need to return intact for next year's short semi-sequel "Frozen Fever".
None of that precludes my scenario.
Remember, the writers of Frozen said there were "pages and pages" on the origins of Elsa's powers that they didn't use in the movie.
How do you know they didn't turn those pages over to the OUAT writers with their blessing? It's not like the two teams couldn't collabrate. They work for the same studo.
I thought Once Upon a Time is a completely different Disney sub-franchise from everything else. Case in point: in this TV series Mulan is lesbian/bisexual and Captain Shang is nowhere in sight.
As far as I know the versions of the characters on OUAT aren't really supposed to be the same ones as the ones in the movies/stories, so I don't really see there being a problem with them changing the Frozen characters backstories. I don't really see where it would be that different from what they've done with the other characters.
As for the episode, I enjoyed it. I liked seeing them already meet and befriend Elsa. I was afraid they were going to make them enemies for a while before they realized she wasn't a bad guy.
The flashback was a fun way to tie Anna into the Enchanted Forest characters' story, and Bo Peep was a lot of fun. She was definitely very unexpected.
I loved the reveal of Elizabeth Mitchell's Snow Queen at the end. I am curious to see what role she'll play in the Enchanted Forest and Frozen characters' stories.

'Reckless' Cancelled by CBS
Georgina Haig (Elsa) is now free to appear in the second half of this season.
I can see Elsa coming back for the possible two hour season 4 finale to help the main characters take down the Big Bad.

Remember it's already been announced Maleficent is coming back, my guess she's the second half villain.
