Dania Ramirez Discusses Final Episodes of Once Upon A Time
DANIA RAMIREZ
The final season of ABC’s Once Upon A Time is coming to a close. Tell-Tale TV sat down with Dania Ramirez to discuss the filming of the final few episodes of the fantasy series.
First up, they asked about what it felt like for Ramirez to play such an iconic character in Cinderella.
When I auditioned for the part, I didn’t even know it was for Cinderella. For me, it was a dream come true to get the chance to play such an iconic character, that I, growing up as a Latina, never thought I could play. That part of it was really magical.
She also chatted about filming the series’ final two episodes, which features appearances by some of the OUAT alum.
I got to play with Jennifer Morrison — love her! She was so much fun. She was so lovely. She’s so inspiring and so into her character and cares about Emma Swan. It’s going to be great for the fans because they’ll be getting what they’ve been wanting all season.
For those people that have been here for years, it’s sad, but at the same time, everybody’s really excited about the journeys they’re about to take. The show has been going on for such a long time, so it’s bittersweet. We know that we were part of something really special. For us, it’s about continuing to build good memories to the end.
Once Upon A Time airs Fridays @ 8pm ET on ABC.

At this weekend’s D23 Expo, it was revealed that Cinderella will get a new story.
Executive producer of Once Upon a Time, Eddy Kitsis revealed this Saturday that new cast member Dania Ramirez will play Cinderella in the seventh season of the show.
It was also confirmed that Ramirez is playing Henry’s wife and mother of his child. “Dania Ramirez will be playing a different version of Cinderella,” said Kitsis. “If we remember Henry’s grandfather is Prince Charming [Josh Dallas], so we have the grandson of Prince Charming with a new Cinderella.”
Kitsis said that the new season will be set in Seattle, and flashbacks will take us into the Enchanted Forest. “Henry is in a new Enchanted Forest, with characters that we have seen before but with different tales.”
As for Storybrooke he said that “we may see it a few times throughout the year” We’re going to follow him as he leaves home,” Kitsis shared, adding that Henry “wants to find his own story.”
“We’re going to follow him [Henry] as he leaves home,” Kitsis explained, which means we will see at least a little more of Jared Gilmore’s Young Henry.
The seventh season of Once Upon a Time is set to air this fall, and it will air on Friday nights instead of Sundays.
