The cast of ABC's "Once Upon a Time" continues to grow with announcements coming fast and often.
The same day it was revealed Chinese legendary figure and Disney animated character Mulan was joining the series for its second season, TV Line is reporting that Irish actress Sarah Bolger has been cast as Sleeping Beauty.
Bolger portrayed Mary Tudor in "The Tudors" and also appeared in "The Spiderwick Chronicles."
Known as Aurora in Disney's 1959 animated film, Sleeping Beauty falls asleep after pricking her finger on a spindle cursed by the evil Maleficent.
Kristin Bauer van Straten ("True Blood") portrayed Maleficent in two episodes during the series' first season.
"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 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.
