Nearly eight years after the series finale of Once Upon a Time, Storybrooke is still on Ginnifer Goodwin‘s mind!
ABC’s hit fantasy drama centered around the residents of the fictional town of Storybrooke, Maine — a land without magic created by The Evil Queen’s (Lana Parilla) dark curse, which forced classic fairy tale characters to forget their past lives and identities. Goodwin, 47, famously played the dual role of Snow White and Mary Margaret Blanchard, Storybrooke’s meek school teacher who was initially unaware that she was actually the wife of Prince Charming (Josh Dallas) and the mother of Storybrooke’s would-be Savior, Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison).
Over the show’s seven season run, it went on to feature numerous popular literary and Disney characters, including Captain Hook (Colin O’Donoghue) from Peter Pan, Maleficent (Kristin Bauer) from Sleeping Beauty, and even Elsa (Georgina Haig) and Anna (Elizabeth Lail) from Frozen. While Goodwin said her goodbyes as a series regular in Season 6, the show has remained near and dear to her heart since its final chapter closed in 2018.
“I would go back and revisit that [show] in any form in a heartbeat,” she exclusively tells MovieWeb. “It is so above my pay grade to get to make any kind of decisions about whether we get to crack that nut again, but I definitely would.”
Ginnifer Goodwin Found Her Own Fairytale Ending on ‘Once Upon a Time’
Snow White isn’t the only one who found her Prince Charming! Goodwin discovered her own true love with her costar and now-husband, Josh Dallas, after meeting on the set of Once Upon a Time in 2011. The following year, the lovebirds went public with their relationship, and they later tied the knot in April 2014. They have since welcomed two sons together — Oliver Finlay, 11, and Hugo Wilson, 9.
“It’s extraordinary because she is, literally, the greatest mother that I know,” the Manifest star, 46, told People some time after the birth of their first son. “It’s extraordinary to have your partner, who you’ve known all this time, blossom into this woman … who is so nurturing, so caring and just so cool. She’s so cool, and she’s a cool mom. It’s great.”
More than 10 years after saying “I do,” the happy couple is still going strong and collaborating on new projects together. When Goodwin went on to star as Officer Judy Hopps in Disney’s Zootopia in 2016, Dallas snagged a small voice acting gig in the award-winning animated film as Frantic Pig — a role he’s set to reprise in the sequel.
Earlier this month, Dallas and Goodwin were joined by their children when they walked the red carpet together at the Zootopia 2 premiere in Hollywood, California. Goodwin dazzled in a cream, off-the-shoulder dress while Dallas sported a classy beige suit. Meanwhile, Oliver and Hugo wore their own matching black suits and ties as they smiled and posed for photos alongside their parents.
