Ever since Storybrooke's savior became its biggest nightmare, no event that followed ever seemed too far-fetched and so fans can expect all things unlikely and unbecoming in the subsequent "Once Upon A Time" season 5 episodes.
During the New York Comic Con, executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis along with Jennifer Morrison aka Emma spilled the beans on what's to come in the lives of the heroes and villains in Storybrooke.
There, it was revealed that in the upcoming "Once Upon A Time" season 5 episode titled "The Broken Kingdom," a motley crew will form. This group includes Regina, Hook and Robin Hood, who will band together for a purpose being kept under wraps.
It was also revealed in the same event that Hook will take center stage in future episodes not only for his undying desire to save his lady love but also for the mystery of his past. Fans will finally get to see Hook as a young boy in flashbacks. His father will be present too but is yet to be cast.
Morrison also talked about the complications of her character being the Dark One. She said, as quoted by Variety that "Emma is still the savior — it's not that she's not Emma. She's the savior with darkness in her... a cauldron of constant conflict."
"At certain times the dark is winning and sometimes the light is winning," the actress went on to say. This is why she will have a very hard time proving that she can still be worthy of Hook and Henry's trust.
Meanwhile, the EPs also teased a story that centers on Lancelot and an exciting adventure involving Merida, Mulan and Ruby. The latter is said to take place in a special two-hour episode airing on Nov. 15.
"Once Upon A Time" season 5 is airing its fourth episode on Oct. 18.
