Now to one to a hit show by the way you’re all watching it once upon a time which tells us a story of an evil queen’s cursed that stress fairy-tale characters in a small main town. Now they’re not able to remember who they are or exactly why they’re there, but there is one character that ties all that together, and it's Lana Parrilla, she joins us now this morning.

        And you.

        Hello.

        Yeah, go ahead, everybody, welcome.

        Yeah, OK.

        Thank you.

        In our zoo, that is a Good Morning America time square.

        I love it. It's a lot of fun.

        Yes, it is.

        But now you are the evil queen. And you have to stay evil no matter what part of the story you are in. But actually you’re not that evil. 

        I’m really not.

        So how do we get there?

        I'm really not. I'm really not. It requires a lot of, a lot of work, fun, a lot of fun work. You know, I'm inspired by different characters in the past and some family members. Sorry, but true. And, but it's a lot of fun. I have a blast¹ playing her.

        There’re one or two times they allow you to get kind of emotional and show your softer side, but there is not a lot of it. One of them, one of them, let's just show the clip² here and we'll talk a lot more about it.

        OK, got it. 

        There’s a show, showing your softer side.

        Now you're going to kill me.

        Not actually, but first you need to suffer.

        Listening to you has been enough suffering for all of us. That's right. You wanna to see your queen? Well my dears, here she is.

        She’s powerless.

        What?

        Where were we?

        Yeah, it's a surprised softer side on that.

        I mean, it's only for a moment, she is vulnerable³. It's a lot of fun. I think it's important to show a vulnerable side to such an evil character. It makes so much more relatable.

        Everyone in that story in their fear depends on you being completely believable. And you, yet you guys are acting⁴ in a fairy-tale world. We’re talking about this. How difficult it is to act in things that are not really around you?

        I mean, you kind of have to revert⁵ to your child-like imagination and go back to when you're playing dress-up and different characters and you know it's getting easier as we move forward. But one of the things that the Creator always said to me very early on was to make sure that this just doesn’t become a caricature, make her human and that was the best note they ever gave me and I understood that met and then so. That's why I always comfort when I play this character.

        Well, you make a really unbelievable land until today I thought you were terribly evil but you are very sweet and it's lovely to have you here.

        Thank you.

        Once upon a time, premier⁶'s winner. Is this, it is a brand-new season premier.
