Another familiar face will set foot in Storybrooke on "Once Upon A Time" Season 5. The latest casting development for this season confirms that Robbie Kay will return on the hit fantasy series’ 100th milestone episode. In other "Once Upon A Time news", the first look photo of Merida (Amy Manson) and Mulan (Jamie Chung) embarking in an adventure-filled episode has arrived.
As first reported by Entertainment Weekly, Robbie Kay will reprise his role as Peter Pan on Once Upon A Time season five. The young actor is currently playing a teenager with superhero abilities on NBC’s Heroes Reborn.
Once fandom met Kay’s Peter Pan two years ago, first appearing in the Neverland-centric third season.
Pan has been introduced in the series as a villain rather than a hero. After failing in stealing Henry’s (Jared Gilmore) heart, he plotted to swap souls with the lad for his own selfish reasons of turning Storybrooke into the New Neverland.
The 100th episode is slated to air sometime in March of 2016. No word yet as to why Peter Pan is reuniting with the gang. Still, it can make for another interesting dynamic to see another villain resurfacing in the later part of the season.
Kay joins other returning characters fans had seen in the past seasons including: Barbara Hershey, Meghan Ory, Jamie Chung and David Anders. CDA News shared the casting report.
In other "Once Upon A Time" development, a first look photo of the exciting two hour episode where fans will see Merida and Mulan going on a mission together has finally been released. TV Insider was able to share the photo on Monday.
According to co-creator Eddy Kitsis, the two-part installment will find Merida, Mulan and Red Riding Hood (Meghan Ory) teaming up to battle the Wicked Witch and King Arthur.
ABC will air the special episode on Sunday, Nov. 15th.
With a couple of exciting developments on "Once Upon A Time" Season 5, the fandom can definitely hope that the remaining episodes will be worth-watching.
