Another Actress Confirms She Won't Be Back For Once Upon A Time

Once Upon A Time is going through a revamp for Season 7 and we learned previously that actress Jennifer Morrison would not be returning. Today, another actress has confrimed that she won't be coming back either. Rebecca Marder, who plays Zelena, posted about her fate with the series on her instagram account. She says she wanted to tell fans personally and it wasn't her choice, but a creative decision.

The new direction brings back cast members Lana Parrilla, Robert Carlyle and Colin O'Donoghue as the main focus for the seventh season.

Here is Marder's post:

To my Darling Pretties, First of all I would like to start by congratulating Adam, Eddie, Lana, Bobby and Colin on the pick up of Once Upon A Time! I am truly happy for you all and most importantly for the fans that will get to keep tuning in each week to see where they will take us. A lot of you have been asking if I will be joining everyone in Season 7, so I wanted to let you know personally that unfortunately I am not. This wasn't my choice but a creative decision of the shows that I totally respect and understand. The most important thing is that you all know how much you mean to me. I am told frequently both online and in person that by being a part of such a special show I have in some way changed someone's life. This is hugely meaningful to me. I am here to let you know that I am the one who has been changed. Not just by playing such a well written multi-dimensional character but by the fandom itself. I have heard your stories, your pain, your struggles, your achievements and I have truly felt you. I have learned. I have grown. I am a better person because of you, the fans and everyone that blessed me with this opportunity to play such an iconic role. Congrats all and thank you! I look forward to the next. I invite you to come with me on this journey. I am forever changed. And I'm wicked. And Wicked Always Wins. Forever yours, Bex 💚
