Once Upon A Time Season 7 – Jennifer Morrison SWANS OFF ABC Drama

May 8, 2017 by RenewCancelTV Leave a Comment

once upon a time cancelled renewed

Once Upon A Time is secretly gearing up for a retooled seventh season, but it will be without core star Jennifer Morrison, who has departed the series.

In a statement, Morrison said Season 6 will be her OUAT swansong:

As I reached the end of my 6 year contract on ONCE UPON A TIME, I was faced with a significant decision. ABC, Eddy Kitsis, and Adam Horowitz very generously invited me to continue as a series regular. After very careful consideration, I have decided that creatively and personally, it is time for me to move on.
Emma Swan is one my favorite characters that I have ever played. My 6 years on ONCE UPON A TIME has changed my life in the most beautiful ways. I am absolutely blown away by the passion and commitment of the Oncer fans. I am so honored to have been a central part of such a special show.

I will be forever grateful to Adam, Eddy, and ABC for giving me the gift of playing Emma Swan.
As I move on to other creative endeavors, I will continue to attend the fan conventions whenever my professional schedule allows. I always look forward meeting the fans.

If ABC Network does in fact order a season 7, I have agreed to appear in one episode, and I will most certainly continue to watch ONCE UPON A TIME. The creativity of the show runners has always inspired me, and I cannot wait to see the ways that they continue to develop and reinvent the show.

While looking ahead to Season 7, co-creators Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis commented:

“The past six years of collaborating with Jennifer as Emma Swan have been truly magical,” said series creators and executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis. “Watching her breathe life into Emma, she accomplished more than we could have dreamed possible — she gave life to a brand-new Disney Princess, filled with strength and intelligence and an incredible closet full of red leather jackets. We’ll miss seeing her every day, but her imprint upon ONCE UPON A TIME is indelible. She will always be a part of the show and its heart and soul. That said, just because Jennifer won’t be back every week doesn’t mean we won’t see our savior again.”

Could Morrison’s ‘shock’ departure signal a renewal U-turn from ABC? Is the network testing the waters before formally anointing Season 7? While the reaper is always a threat, sources say the renewal is expected to stick.

Stay tuned as we await the official announcement…
