Adelaide Kane Latest News, Photos, and Videos

Drizella might be the one you want to hate on Once Upon A Time this season, along with her mom Lady Tremaine, but don’t underestimate anything about her.

Showrunner Eddy Kitsis told TVLine that while she puts “the ‘wicked’ in wicked stepsister…she’s not one to be underestimated – and yet certain characters make that mistake.”

Sounds like Drizella, played by Adelaide Kane, might just have an evil plan of her own up her sleeves.

In tonight’s episode, “A Pirate’s Life”, Henry finds himself in trouble, he calls upon his Storybrooke family for help, and together they set off on a mission to find Cinderella. Along the way, Hook is confronted by an unexpected foe who threatens the group’s success.

In Hyperion Heights, Jacinda searches for a way to see Lucy with some unwelcome assistance from Henry, while Victoria Belfrey enlists the help of Gold and Weaver to push Henry out of the neighborhood.

We only have a few more days until Once Upon a Time returns on ABC and Adelaide Kane is teasing more about her character, Drizella.

“I don’t know if she’s evil, but she’s been a lot of fun to play,” the former Reign actress admits in a new interview with EW. “I’m in really, really cute clothes. My slogan for her is buttoned-up and b*****.”

Adelaide adds, “She seems like a very high-strung, slightly ditzy young woman and she’s just very petty. She’s kind of like that awful bully in high school except that she doesn’t know how to win people to her side so she’s just alone, snappy, snarky, sarcastic, and miserable all the time.”

“It’s been a lot of fun. I get some really fun lines where I can just snap back at people. I’ve been having a great time. She’s very funny. She’s the worst in a hilarious way.”

She also adds that she is the way she is because of the abuse from her mother, Lady Tremaine.

“Deep deep down, she’s been emotionally abused for years by an uncaring, negligent, controlling, obsessive mother,” Adelaide says. “There’s no softness to her.”

“She’s mostly just a bastard little girl in a grown woman’s body just lashing out at everybody who comes close to her, because she has no faith or trust in anything anymore and her whole world has just become keeping her mother happy, so her life doesn’t get any harder than it is.”

Once Upon A Time returns on Friday, October 6th.

Adelaide Kane is probably going to be your favorite, love-to-hate, mean girl when Once Upon a Time returns to ABC.

The Aussie-born actress opened up to EW more about her character on the ABC show for the upcoming season.

“My slogan for [Drizella] is buttoned up and b*****,” Adelaide shared, with a little laugh.

She adds that Drizella is “a very high-strung, slightly ditzy young woman and she’s just very petty.”

Yep, that bully you hate all throughout high-school is exactly who Drizella is.

“She’s like that awful bully in high school,” Adelaide adds, “Except that she doesn’t know how to win people to her side, so she’s just alone, snappy, snarky, sarcastic and miserable all the time.”

Once Upon a Time returns on Friday, October 6th on ABC.

Adelaide Kane is going from a rational, country-before-everything else royal, to a nasty step-sister on Once Upon a Time.

New details about the Reign alum’s character, Drizella, were revealed today on Entertainment Weekly.

She’s “deliciously evil,” showrunner Eddy Kitsis says. “She presents herself to be as evil as the evil stepsisters promise to be, but like everything in Once Upon a Time, you never know what’s underneath it.”

Drizella is so evil on the show that she might even take away that throne from her mother, Lady Tremaine.

Adam Horowitz adds: “There’s a lot going on inside of Drizella, and she earned the evil moniker.”

Once Upon a Time returns on Friday, October 6th on ABC.

Adelaide Kane is a big reader and has stacked library of books that we’d love to browse.

Speaking with the JJJ Book Club, the former Reign actress revealed the last three books that she’s been reading and they include “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind” by Yuval Noah Harari.

“[I've] been reading this for quite some time,” she admits. “I just can’t seem to get all the way through it though because it’s really dense and I’ve been really busy.”

However, the one book that Adelaide‘s reading right now is called “Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World” by Haruki Murakami — and it was Toby Regbo who gave it to her!

“Toby gave it to me when he left [the show] and it’s just been sitting in my library for years and I just started reading it,” she tells us.

Adelaide adds that he gifted it to her on a whim, really.

“He was giving away a whole bunch of his stuff when he moved and gave this one to me,” she shares. “He kind of knew that I have an affinity for Japanese stuff.”

Adelaide Kane has debuted a first look at her character for Once Upon a Time.

It was announced earlier this summer that the Reign actress will be a recurring character on the upcoming seventh season of the ABC show, as Drizella, Cinderella’s step sister.
