'Once Upon a Time' Season 6 Sneak Peek Reveals Aladdin & (New) Jafar
"Once Upon a Time" is heading to a whole new world in Season 6. Yeah, they do that every season, but in 2016-2017, Aladdin, Jafar, and Princess Jasmine are taking a magic carpet ride to ABC. Don't you dare close your eyes!
OUAT shared a nearly 4-minute sneak peek scene at Comic-Con, showing Jafar in a tense convo with Aladdin ... who is apparently also a "savior."
Here's the new footage:

Deniz Akdeniz plays Aladdin, with Oded Fehr as the new Jafar, recasting from Naveen Andrews, who was Jafar in "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland" but is apparently too busy with "Sense8" now. In some very cool ABC-crossover news, "Galavant" alum Karen David was cast as Jasmine, which is a dream come true for her, since she had said in a Reddit AMA that she'd love to be on OUAT. "If they ever want Esmerelda, or Pocahontas, or Jasmine from Aladdin to come on, I'd LOVE to do it! xo"
Fans are thrilled for her to get her wish.
Lovelies!Thanks so much for all your kind wishes.So excited & grateful to play Jasmine on .@OnceABC Huge thanks to @AdamHorowitzLA & co?????????
