Thanks, Aleki, for posting this. We can always count on OUAT-fan, Matt, to dish out some good stuff. I wonder who it could be, and if the actor is being pushed, or is leaving voluntarily? Either way, it would be sad.

I agree, Tiuchis, and I've been putting more thought into this than I should be doing. One subject that Matt didn't address in his column COULD be relevant: Ginnifer's impending motherhood. I'm sure that I'm wildly off-base on that one. I don't think there really is any way that Ginnifer might depart -- it would just be too devastating to the show. Still, trying to balance a tough schedule with an infant at home....yadda, yadda, yadda. No, that just couldn't happen. I shouldn't have even brought it up.
I just don't want it to be Jennifer -- THAT MUST NOT HAPPEN!

Neither do I, Jamie. It's a rather shocking revelation by Adam and Eddie. As to who it might be -- I've given it more, measured thought, which means that I'm most likely wrong about the character I have in mind -- a series regular, but I don't think it's one of the top 6.. -

Who do you think it is?
My guesses are Neal, Belle, or Hook. I just can't see it being any of the others.
I'm not sure Disney would allow them to kill off an iconic princess like Belle so I'm inclined to take her off the list too. They've spent so much time building up Hook's relationship with Emma that I have my doubts there too. Not to mention all the promotion ABC puts into Hooks character. But I wouldn't put it past the writers to give him a heroic death saving Emma or her family. They haven't done anything with Neal's character and he spends more time in the background, locked up, or believed to be dead.
If that gossip from the PA last week is true, then it's really about the actor/actress wanting out. I don't think it's a coincidence that Adam and Eddy decided to reveal this spoiler right after those tweets from the PA were circulating. The only reason to spoil it this soon is because the death will be public anyway. Like Rumple and his father on the streets of Storybrooke. Or the actor/actress in question is about to sign on for a pilot or some project that's going to be made public soon.. -

You've made some very intelligent points, there, Jamie. I wasn't aware of what rumors had been circulating. Especially interesting to me is possibility that the actor in question may be instigating this by making a career move, i.e., looking to sign on with another project, since TV pilot season is upon us.
I definitely don't want to see any of the regular characters/actors leave the show. IMO, they all bring something to the table, but I do think that the show will survive losing anyone other than one of the top 6 (Jennifer, Ginny, Josh, Lana, Robert and Jared -- and they're in no particular order).
Your theories about the others -- and where they might stand, or fall, as the case may be -- are very sound. Actors come and go through the course of TV series. I will feel better about this if the actor in question has a concrete backup plan, and is not pushed out the door the way Jennifer was at HOUSE. THAT is the kind of executive misconduct that makes me quit as a viewer.. -

I don't really know who is leaving to do exactly what, but apparently it was the actor's decision, so the producers have no other way to go. . -

Very good intel. That is one more piece of the puzzle. Operation Cobra at work again! Thanks, Tiuchis.

Not necessarily. There was information given out by someone who claimed to be a PA with the show but they may not have given out any sort of reliable intel. The person claimed they heard the spoiler of who was being written out and then made a flippant comment about how they 'didn't seem to be very happy anyway' which somehow turned into, "OMG, they're writing someone out of the show BECAUSE they're not happy and asked to leave". I think it all got blown out of proportion during the OUAT fandom meltdown that apparently happened on every single OUAT website. Adam was then asked point blank if they were writing someone out because they wanted to leave and he said no and that it was a storyline dictated exit. I'd rather trust Adam at this point over some random person's Twitter rambling so until I hear otherwise, I'm trusting that this is truly storyline related and not because someone wanted to leave the show. What actor in his or her right mind wants to leave a successful show that you're a regular cast member on with guaranteed money coming in every week???! That's insanity, LOL
I HATE that this spoiler came out with over a month to go until the show comes back. All it did was split the fandom even more apart and create a lot of speculation, rumors, and negativity from everyone who's now scared their fave is being killed off.

THAT is an excellent point, Heather -- one that I have been wondering about. Even if an actor would like to move on and try something else -- just signing on to a pilot in no way guarantees that the project will ever get picked up, let alone have a successful run -- the certainty of a continuing role and a steady paycheck should never be dismissed. I'm sure that there is a ton of speculation and confusion going on in cyber-social world over all of this, and it is unsettling and disruptive. The one certainty that I have at this point -- one that seems to be universal, if not uniting -- is that a death in the OUAT family will be shocking, and for me, sad.

Lightning Round 11: Once Upon a Time Bosses Answer Your Burning Questions
by Natalie Abrams
What will happen to Emma and Henry? Who is the Wicked Witch really?
Since fans still have a long wait until Once Upon a Time returns, TVGuide.com decided it's time for our 11th Lightning Round with the brain trust behind ABC's fairy-tale drama, executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis.
We grabbed your fan questions off Twitter and hit up Horowitz and Kitsis for a quick round of scoop, in which the producers had the option to answer, "Yes," "No" or "Can't Answer." Some of their answers, and possible non-answers, are pretty telling, so check them out below:
Will we get an answer as to why Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) and Neal (Michael Raymond James) had to go back to the Enchanted Forest even though neither came via the curse?
Adam Horowitz: Anyone not from this world went back to where they were from.
Edward Kitsis: Except for Emma (Jennifer Morrison), who was the savior. She was a special exception.
Will Regina's (Lana Parrilla) gift to Emma and Henry (Jared Gilmore) have consequences when it comes to their relationship?
Horowitz and Kitsis: Yes.
Since Regina undid the curse so that Storybrooke never existed, does that mean any deaths in Storybrooke didn't occur?
Kitsis: No, death is death.
Horowitz: Everything that happened in those three years actually happened. It's not that anything was undone. All the events of the time in Storybrooke are real and occurred and affected the characters. The only difference is that Emma doesn't have memories of it.
Kitsis: I think the subtext of the question is will Jamie Dornan be alive. He is busy shooting a movie, but as always, we want him as much as possible. No one loves Dornan more than me.
Will Emma finally have a friend who isn't her mom?
Kitsis: She will. She absolutely will. In a lot of ways, I might say that Hook has become a friend that isn't her mom.
Will we get some Hook versus the modern world moments?
Horowitz: Yes.
Would a second child of Snow (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Charming (Josh Dallas) have powers?
Kitsis: Can't say.
Will we find out what deal Hook made with Pan (Robbie Kay) to escape Neverland?
Kitsis: We will not get to that this year.
Have we seen the last of Neverland?
Horowitz: This year, yes.
Could Greg (Ethan Embry) still be alive since Blue (Keegan Connor Tracy) returned to her body when the Shadow was burned?
Kitsis: Absolutely he could be, but he's stuck in a cave in Neverland. Since we're not going this year, I don't think we'll see him.
Will we see Oz?
Horowitz and Kitsis: Yes.
Will we find out who the parents of the Wicked Witch (Rebecca Mader) are?
Kitsis: Absolutely.
Is the Wicked Witch related to any of the characters we've seen on the show?
Kitsis: Can't tell you.
Do other characters besides Regina have history with the Wicked Witch?
Horowitz: Yes.
Will we know for sure who Emma's true love is by the end of Season 3?
Horowitz: Can't say.
Will we see Belle's (Emilie de Ravin) life before Rumple (Robert Carlyle)?
Kitsis: Not this season, but we plan to at some point.
Any chance we'll see a young Belle?
Horowitz: There's always a chance. We'd love to get to that.
Kitsis: Not this year.
Will we see Belle and Neal bond over their shared loss of loved ones?
Kitsis: Yup.
Did the storybook appear to Mary Margaret when Henry began to question his situation?
Kitsis: That's a tricky one. It's not a yes, no or can't answer.
Horowitz: You've seen part of the reasoning in Episode 311 and hopefully more.
Kitsis: More to come!
Does Snow's heart still have a dark spot on it?
Kitsis: Probably.
Will we see Ursula (voice by Yvette Nicole Brown) in any future episodes?
Kitsis: Not this season.
Horowitz: But we'd love to!
Will we see more of Maleficent (Kristin Bauer van Straten) and Aurora's (Sarah Bolger) past soon?
Kitsis: In a flashback, no. Will we learn more about Aurora's past, yes.
Horowitz: In a manner of speaking, yes.
Any chance any of the Frozen characters could come to life on Once?
Kitsis: That has been our favorite movie this year. We would love to, but not this year.
Will we see where Emma was when she was younger?
Kitsis: Not this season, but we intend to next year.
Will we see Roland, Robin Hood's (Sean Maguire) son, again?
Horowitz: Yes.
Is the character who dies male?
Horowitz: Can't say.
Kitsis: We're not telling. You're just going to have to watch!

CITAZIONENot sure if I’m the only one, but I can’t stop thinking about when Once Upon a Time‘s Regina is going to meet her true love (aka, Robin Hood). I’d like some inside info. –Diana
Already, I scooped for you that the OTLs “soul mates” will finally come face to face in the second episode back, airing March 16. But here’s a little something new, from cocreator Eddy Kitsis: “They meet under interesting circumstances – heightened, intense circumstances — as one does on our show.”
