Once Upon a Time - Season 4 - Elizabeth Mitchell Talks The Snow Queen, Emma and More

How did you joining the show come about?
I always go to that fan site of mine, only because I feel like they know what’s going on before I do. [Laughs] They said something about “Elizabeth Mitchell being considered for Frozen part,” and I was like, “That doesn’t make sense. That’s not really age appropriate.” Then I got a call saying that [executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis] are wondering, if this role came about, would I be interested in doing it? I was like, “Yes!” My manager was like, “Give it some thought.” “I did, yes.” I played really hard to get, obviously. Then [Adam and Eddy] called me and they were so excited about it. We had such a great talk about villains, which I can’t really go into because it has to do with what happens [on the show]. My whole theory has always been that villains never know they are villains. That seems to be the case here, even though she does some crazy stuff. It’s been really fun.

Does the Snow Queen have an actual name?
I don’t think she has a name yet.

The Snow Queen appears to know Emma from her past. Is there anything you can say about their connection?
I know that everyone thinks it might be negative, so Emma must think that. I can say it’s surprising, but I can’t really [say much] because it’s so much a part of the whole thing. It’s one of those ones where it’s definitely worth keeping an eye on, and it does mean a lot to both of them—which is fun because I like spending time with Jennifer. She’s awesome. It’s important, and it’s big, and it has a lot to do with the mythology of things, which I love.

In the present day, we saw the Snow Queen messing with some sort of CGI mini ice castle. Is that going to come back into play?
That was totally real. Wasn’t that pretty? That was my first day. That’s when I decided that the Snow Queen was barefoot. Everyone was like, “You can’t make the Snow Queen barefoot.” I’m like, “Have you seen me walk? I’m a gazelle in galoshes. Yes, the Snow Queen is barefoot, otherwise I’ll be tripping over everything.” So, we put her barefoot in the snow and it’s been so much fun. She was making something pretty that made her smile. It was a little frivolous thing. It may be that it’s a precursor for something else, or it may not be. At the moment that it happens, it’s just something that’s quite lovely she thought would be pretty. With everyone searching for her and her world crumbling around her, she’ll just make a little dollhouse ice castle. Wouldn’t you? [Laughs]

  1. i don't see her connnection to emma as negative honestly, i mean she almost cried when she saw her and the way she said her name it's like a mother seeing her daughter after millions of years

  5. My theory right now:
    The snowqueen was Emma's foster mother and they were happy but someone (propably Rumple) gave her bad memorys in order to become the savior. Something along those lines I would imagine ;)

  6. I think she was a foster mother too! That is the first thought I had about the relationship. I think she might have had Emma for a really short period of time and got really attached. Or maybe Emma ran away or was taken from her.

  7. I am astonished : in a quite short moment (one second ? two seconds ?), the SQ stopped her arm and her "Emma ?" tell us a whole story of a woman who knew a beloved little orphan a long time ago.
