BURBANK, Calif. - July 24, 2013 - Be among the first to watch ABC's most anticipated new fall series and animated specials and have a chance to learn the secrets behind how they were made. Fans will have those opportunities at the D23 Expo: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, where all the worlds of Disney come together, August 9-11 at the Anaheim Convention Center.
Executive producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz will be featured at a panel titled "ABC's Once Upon a Time: Behind the Fairytale" on Saturday, August 10 at 1:00 p.m. at Stage 23. Kitsis and Horowitz will talk about exciting developments for Season Three of their hit series "Once Upon a Time," as well as their new fall series, "Once Upon a Time in Wonderland," which is set in the Victorian England of Alice and the strange new land that exists on the other side of the rabbit hole. Fans will get a special sneak peek at the new series. The Q&A with the executive producers will be moderated by D23's Jeffrey Epstein.
Guests on the D23 Expo show floor are invited to come aboard the Jolly Roger for a swashbuckling good time with some favorite fairytale characters from ABC's hit series "Once Upon a Time." Explore the famous pirate ship and feast your eyes on original props from the set. You will also find Snow White, Prince Charming, the Evil Queen, Captain Hook and Emma Swan (and Emma's red leather jacket). Every pirate who boards the ship gets to visit the Evil Queen's vault. And a surprise awaits you when you unlock a box from Regina's wall of hearts. No pirate will leave empty handed! Don't let this exciting adventure sail by without you!
In addition, as previously announced, guests will be able to get an up-close-and-personal look at some of the elaborate costumes from "Once Upon a Time" inside the Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives exhibit located on the second floor of the Convention Center.
