Spoilers Once Upon a Time season 6

Casting Sinbad and Scheherezade underway - http://tvline.com/2016/06/24/once-upon-a-time-sinbad-scheherezade-casting-season-6/

 

Ooo, I would be VERY interested in them doing Aladdin for a season!

 

Cool, I'm glad they'll be doing some more non-European stories. I don't know if Aladdin is really on the table since we already got Jafar in Once/Wonderland, and there was no mention of Aladdin in his story at all. I guess they could find a way to do it without connecting the characters, but I find it unlikely.

 

Who would they get to play the Genie, though?

 

IIRC at the end of the Wonderland series Jafar (Naveen Andrews) was a genie so he could be Aladdin's genie.

Season 6 premiere title is

The Savior

Oh, man. I just remembered what the cliffhanger was. I'd finally repressed it.

 

Dan Castellaneta?

 

This series is dead to me. After Season 5, I finally gave up.

 

Craig Horner cast as the Count of Monte Cristo - http://www.ew.com/article/2016/07/20/once-upon-time-craig-horner

 

Who's next? Huckleberry Finn?

 

SBarge did play Huckleberry finn in an old Disney Channel movie.

 

I looked at the name and thought it sounded familiar, looked at the picture, didn't recognize him - and then it mentioned Legend of the Seeker. It's been a while since I've seen that

 

Well, we did see The Three Muskateers and Esmeralda from Hunchback of Notre Dame in the finale, so Jekyll and Hyde weren't the only characters from the era they gave us. With them already have done most of the big fairy tales, I don't mind them moving on to this kind of stuff.

 

I was wrong, they are doing Aladdin. During the Season 6 SDCC panel they announced that Deniz Akendiz has been cast as Aladdin, and Oded Fehr is taking over the role of Jafar from Naaveen Andrews, who played in one Wonderland. They also showed the first scene from the premiere, which is posted in the link article.
I'm very curious to see how this will connect back to Wonderland.

 

I'm very excited at the idea of doing Aladdin this season! Much more than Mister Hyde.

 

Karen David cast as Princess Jasmine - http://www.ew.com/article/2016/07/23/once-upon-time-karen-david-princess-jasmine

 

I loved-loved-LOVED Karen David on Galavant. Brilliant choice.

 

Me too, that is great news. With her as Jasmine and Oded Fehr as Jafar the Aladdin storyline definitely has I ton of potential.
I doubt they would do it, but I would love to see them cast James Monroe Igleheart as Genie.
