According to Deadline, actress Meghan Ory, who plays Ruby and Red Riding Hood in the fairy tale-themed show, has been upgraded from a recurring character to a series regular.

"Once Upon a Time" tells the story of the small Maine town of Storybrooke, which is populated by fairy tale characters who were sent there by a dreadful curse, wiping their memories and giving them new identities. The first season follows Emma Swan (Jennifer Morrison, "House"), who travels to the town to return her biology son to his adopted mother Regina (Lana Parrilla, "Miami Medical"), not knowing that she's really the evil queen who cast the curse. Her son Henry (Jared Gilmore, "Mad Men") is convinced she is the one destined to break the curse and return everyone home.

Created by "Lost" writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, the series tells dual story lines each episode, dealing with the present day in Storybrooke and the characters' pasts in the fairy tale land.

It also stars Josh Dallas (who recently had to pull out of "Thor 2" due his obligations to the series) as Prince Charming/David Nolan, Ginnifer Goodwin ("Big Love") as Snow White/Mary Margaret Blanchard and Robert Carlyle ("Stargate Universe") as Mr. Gold, known in the fairy tale land as Rumpelstiltskin.

Ory, whose previous work includes "True Justice," appeared in 17 of the first season's 22 episodes.
