Ginnifer Goodwin Teases The Upcoming 'Once Upon A Time' Episode And Talks Dark Snow White And Cruella De Vil

Once Upon a Time's Ginnifer Goodwin is teasing Sunday's all-new episode. The 36-year-old star is opening up about Snow White's dark side and talking about the new villain coming to town... Cruella De Vil.

After the Snow Queen cast the Spell of Shattered Sight, it isn't looking good for the characters in Storybrooke. With the new spell the return of Dark Snow White will take place this week and she will fight with both Charming and Regina.

"It's really wonderful, because Regina comes back [to the sheriff station] as her full Evil Queen self. But instead of it being that they fall into their old dynamic, it's more that the Evil Queen battles Dark Snow, from those episodes where Snow White was under dark enchantment. And those two energies together is kind of hilarious," Ginnifer told TV Line.

"There was just so much to play, because these characters have so much history, and yet so much has changed between them. For her to come back in her Evil Queen regalia is hilarious, because she's so not that person anymore. And there's something about being Dark Snow in Storybrooke that we also found very funny, because it's so not the woman that she has become."

When it comes to filming angry scenes with her real-life husband Josh Dallas, who also plays her on-screen husband Prince Charming, Ginnifer revealed that it is really hard not to laugh. "They had very little footage they could use, because he does make me laugh so hard," the Something Borrowed star revealed to the publication.

"There isn't actually anything I can channel from real life, so it becomes a technical thing where I'm, like, tilting my head a certain way and trying to make my eyes do something physically to look angry, because I can't really be mad at him."

With the Frozen storyline coming to an end, a new character, Cruella De Vil will be introduced. Ginnifer assured fans that it would all make sense. "It's, like everything else on Once Upon a Time, will make sense - to the extent that you're like, 'How was this not incorporated in the animated feature?' She's a perfect Once family member, absolutely," she revealed.

In other Once news, there is a new man coming to town! "For Episode 15, Once is casting the possibly recurring role of a king whose crown was hard-won, and the fight to keep it has taken a toll. He is also described as 'handsome, though not refined, and highly protective of his family,'" TV Line reported earlier this week.
