Last year, Once Upon a Time spent a day filming scenes around a hole that they had dug on a private plot of land just off of Bayview Street.
Josh Dallas, Ginnifer Goodwin, Lee Arenberg, Meghan Ory, Beverley Elliott and some other Dwarfs were all at the location for pretty much the first half of the day before moving into the Cannery to film some scenes.
But, there was another character there who I have kept out of the pictures until now. I have seen that some fans have posted pictures of the character already, so it’s not too much of a spoiler, but just in case:
This post does contain SPOILERS so if you don’t want to know them, don’t read on.
I turned up at around 9.30am on the morning of December 10, 2012 to see Josh Dallas, Ginnifer Goodwin and Lee Arenberg filming their scenes. There was a big green screen there too, so knew some CGI elements were involved.

So who were they pulling from the hole?
Anton! Josh Dallas kept shouting “Hang on Anton! We’re going to get you out!” in take after take.
Who is Anton I hear you ask. Anton in none other than Jorge Garcia. He played the giant in the episode Tallahassee when Emma and Hook went up the beanstalk to retrieve a magic compass that could bring them back to Storybrooke.
Let me know what you think of the images below in the comments.







Knew It!!
If they hold on to this character, some part of me sees Jorge calling everybody “dude”.
Ahhhhh!!! THIS IS SO COOL! I was really hoping he’d come on through to Storybrooke!
Is Hook ok in this episode? No news about him filming past this one. I hope this isn’t his last one. I saw a rumor about that in a forum, and I hope it was wrong. ;’(
This really has you worried, doesn’t it?
Hook was in the first lot of pics they posted.

Yeah, but what Hookfan means is that there’s no news about Hook past that point.
That was my post you saw. Tyler, we know he’s in 13. You don’t hear about him past that. I still think they killed Hook in this episode.
Yeah, well it’s all over twitter now. Sorry, didn’t mean to start a fire storm. I asked Adam Horowitz on twitter whether any of the Hook death claims are true. People saw it, and then whooooshhh!
Sorry, everybody. I wasn’t trying to spread any rumors, I just want to know if my heart’s about to be evil queened.
who’s that embrancing Meghan Ory?
Well wait how can he be in Storybrooke and The Enchanted Forest. I am so confused!
I agree!! How can Jorge be a Giant in present day FTL AND then a normal size person in Storybrooke…
unless I am missing something?
Also asking the same question from above… who is Meghan Ory hugging behind Jorge?
The person Meghan’s hugging is someone from the crew. I recognized her because of her shoes XD She was in anotehr set of pictures a while back talking with Colin and she was wearing the same shoes lol
