Also featured in the city-based setting is the new Alice in Wonderland (Rose Reynolds). Fans have already gotten a glimpse at one of Cinderella's stepsisters Drizella (Adelaide Kane) and Tiana (Mekia Cox).

"Henry leaves Storybrooke in search of his own story," reads the synopsis for the season 7 premiere. 'Years later in another realm, he encounters a troubled Cinderella, changing the trajectory of his quest forever. When Cinderella's evil stepmother, Lady Tremaine, poses a threat, Henry discovers that following his heart will require him to make more difficult choices than he ever could have imagined."

The seventh season of "Once Upon a Time" premieres Friday, Oct. 6, at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC.
