Thanks to Anne for the heads up.
“The two roles are obviously going to be very separate in the sense that we saw a snippet of an Evil Queen who looked at what Regina has become and is very disappointed,” executive producer Edward Kitsis tells EW. “If she’s unleashed, she would show Regina what ripping away everyone’s happy ending truly looks like.”
The real question is what this separation means for Regina. Not only does it appear the Evil Queen was unable to be killed, making things difficult, but also there’s the question of how different the new Regina will be without the ruthlessness that previously lived inside her. “There’s a lot of questions to be asked about what it means when you separate parts of yourself and can you really separate these parts of yourself?” executive producer Adam Horowitz says.
“As always with this show,” Kitsis adds, “once the audience gets onto what we’re doing, we have to change it.”
