By Alice Balagia

Earlier this weekend (July 26), the stars and producers of ABC’s Once Upon A Time came to the Hilton Bayfront in San Diego to walk the red carpet and do a Q&A. In attendance were Jared Gilmore (Henry), Josh Dallas (Charming), Lana Parrilla (Regina), Jennifer Morrison (Emma), Robert Carlyle (Rumpelstiltskin), Emilie de Ravin (Belle), Colin O’Donoghue (Hook), and producers Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis.

During the Q&A, producers confirmed that the season split with two different story arcs will be the approach used in season 4 as well. This means viewers can expect the Frozen arc to wrap up after the first half of the season, when there will then be introduced a second story arc introduced. Jennifer Morrison confirms Emma is very connected to the Frozen story arc, and that all the characters have been finding themselves in story lines that reflect what’s going in the Frozen storytelling. Lana Parrilla says that in the aftermath of the season 3 finale, viewers can expect Regina to go down a path they’ve never seen her on before.

Season 4 of Once Upon a Time returns to ABC this fall, until then here are some interviews with the cast to help get you through the wait:
