‘Once Upon a Time’ season 2 spoilers: Meet Katerina

Are you ready for another new character to enter the world of “Once Upon a Time”? The good news is that there is another strong female character who will be gracing Storybrooke or the fairytale world pretty soon; but unfortunately, the bad news here is that we still do not know all that much about her just yet.

Here’s what we can say for sure at this given moment: the woman’s name is Katerina, and she is described as a woman in her forties who is kind, loves her family, beautiful, and a world that you should pay closer attention to: regal. Does this mean that we have another queen on her hands? It’s possible, since Sleeping Beauty does still need a mother. (Of course, this is only just one of many possibilities.)

There are no indications just yet that this role will be particularly enormous, and she may only be appearing in just one episode. We can tell you now that the character’s first appearance will be at some point several weeks into next year. It could be in late February depending on how early in January “Once Upon a Time” schedules its return; or, she could turn up as late as early April if we are in for a spring hiatus. Let’s just how that by the time she does show up, the writers and producers are going to be over this “separating Snow White and Prince Charming” storyline that has grown a little tiresome in the past few weeks, and is not as interesting as it once was.

What are your theories about this charter?
