Merrin Dungey is everywhere, y'all.
The former Alias actress has guest-starred on everything from Shameless to Trophy Wife to Brooklyn Nine-Nine to Chasing Life in 2014. Next, she'll appear on Once Upon a Time as one of Disney's most well-known villains — The Little Mermaid's Ursula the Sea Witch — Entertainment Weekly reports.
Fall TV Report Card: How's the freshman class doing?
Ursula is just the latest Disney villain to take up residence in Storybrooke. Dungey joins Victoria Smurfit, who was recently cast as Cruella de Vil, and both actresses join the returning Kristin Bauer van Straten, who is set to reprise her role as Maleficent in the latter half of Once's current fourth season.
However, Dungey's appearance won't mark the first time Ursula has visited the show; Community's Yvette Nicole Brown voiced the character in a Season 3 episode.
