Once Upon A Time

[Raph's Girl]

Couldn't find the original thread for this show.

King Arthur has been cast! British actor Liam Garrigan has been cast as King Arthur. This take on Arthur is described as a "good and just ruler" who, beneath the surface, is "a master manipulator who can carry a grudge to the grave."

I watch this show weekly, but I was disappointed with season 4. I was really looking forward to having Frozen on the show, but it did not turn out as well as I hoped it would. The Little Bo Peep and Cruella de Vil stories were also just way too bizzare. We'll see what next season brings.

This does not make a whole lot of sense to me because Brave is an entirely original story. It is not based on any literary source at all. At least Frozen was loosley based on Hans Christian Andersen's The Snow Queen. Mulan was also an ancient Chinese poem before it was made into a film. Heck even 101 Dalamatians was a book before being adapted into a film.

Merlin, Guinivier, and Percival have been cast! Playing Merlin is Elliot Knight (who was recently seen as Sinbad), Guinivier will be played by Portugese actress Joanna Metrass, and Percival will be played by Andrew Jenkins (he can currently be seen in Wayward Pines)

He looks pretty young to be playing Merlin...
