The Battle to Control the Dark One Is On in New ‘Once Upon a Time’ Promo

The new promo for Once Upon a Time‘s fifth season premiere has us worried about the future of, well, everyone.

Fans of the series already know that they’ll return to a new Dark One, but the latest promo for the season shows us that everyone is in trouble. On top of the Charmings and co. trying to save Emma, Zelena is somehow (seriously though…how?!) released from her imprisonment, and something BIG is happening at Granny’s.

Watch the new promo below:

Jennifer Morrison, who plays Emma Swan in the series, has been having a great time playing up Dark One Emma. “Emotionally it’s interesting because there’s something really fun and free about Emma in the darkness,” she told us during Comic-Con this year. “She’s just free of the gravity of what other people think, the gravity of worrying about saving people. There’s a lightness, in a sense, in her darkness because she doesn’t have to do the right thing and she doesn’t have to be the stronger, better person all the time. So there was a little bit of freedom in that that’s really fun.

Once Upon a Time returns for its fifth season on Sunday, September 27 at 8pm ET/PT on ABC.

Let us hear your theories for the new season in the comments below!
