Description
All the details you need to know about the 150th episode directed by Lana Parrilla, as well as more Series Finale news you do not want to miss in this spoilers-only podcast of episode 7×17 “Chosen”. 7×17 “Chosen” Kelly comes face-to-face with The Candy Killer after someone she loves is taken hostage. Meanwhile, Samdi uses Drew to execute a deadly plan. In a flashback, Zelena learns a harsh lesson after an encounter with Hansel and Gretel goes awry. 7×17 “Chosen” was written by Paul Karp & Brian Ridings, and directed by Lana Parrilla, with guest stars including Rebecca Mader as Zelena/Kelly, Tiera Skovbye as Robin/Margot, Nathan Parsons as Nick Branson/Jack, Daniel Francis as Dr. Facilier/Mr. Samdi, Jeff Pierre as Prince Naveen/Drew, Kip Pardue as Chad, Dan Payne as Ivo, Chilton Crane as The Witch, Seth Isaac Johnson as Young Hansel, Lily van der Griend as Young Gretel. The very confusing promo for “Chosen” starts off with Zelena as the Wicked Witch and Nick/Jack/Hansel the Candy Killer saying that Henry is familiar with her kind of wicked and he needs his help to make her pay. Kelly then goes to Weaver for help, knowing that she’s next on the Candy Killer’s list. Kelly also said that “that witch is the one that me into this mess”. Who is she referring to? The Wicked Witch? Chilton Crane’s character, The Witch? Cutting then to Nick kidnapping Zelena’s Poo Bear aka Chad, threatening her to do as he says. As confusing as the promo is, the photos for the episode “Chosen” consisted of only one scene again, with Zelena and Regina inside Roni’s bar. In a couple of photos, Zelena is seen sitting at the bar with a bat next to her and in another photo, Regina has a crow bar, obviously on the look out for the Candy Killer. In two separate photos, Zelena and Regina are seen looking out the window, as well. Finally, one photo shows Zelena with a phone in hand, seeming like she knows the Candy Killer has her fiance, Chad. Series Finale News As everyone probably knows by now, Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas are coming back to play the roles of Snow White/Mary Margaret and Prince Charming/David one last time. In an article about the return of Snow and Charming shared by TVLine recently, Adam Horowitz said that the pair will have “a critical role to play in the finale”. TVLine also teased that Andrew J. West and Jared Gilmore will have a scene with each other before the season as over. Speculation is that Gilmore will appear as adult Henry’s subconscious, and Snow and Charming may not exactly play a critical role in the plot sense or expect them to play front, back and center once again, seeing Goodwin and Dallas only filmed for two days. So, Snow White and Charming’s return may not include them saving the day. TVLine also reported about the return of original Hook, saying that “Colin O’Donoghue will be playing two roles as the series winds down.” O’Donoghue added that he will be having his last day dressed as a pirate for a scene with returning leading lady Jennifer Morrison. As of this recording, filming for the series is officially over. Newcomers Alison Fernandez (Lucy), Dania J. Ramirez (Jacinda/Cinderella), Rose Reynolds (Tilly/Alice) and Tiera Skobye (Margot/Robin) wrapped a day or so ahead than Robert Carlyle (Rumplestiltskin/Weaver), Colin O’Donoghue (Captain Hook/Nook/Rogers), Rebecca Mader (Zelena/Kelly) and Lana Parrilla (Regina/Roni).
