Wes Brown is prepared to be ABC's guest. Be their guest!
As first reported by Variety, the former True Blood actor has been cast on Once Upon a Time Season 5 in the role of Gaston.
According to the website, along with previous network reports, Gaston will take center stage in a storyline that will take viewers way back to Belle’s life before she met Rumple, giving us a twist on Gaston’s role in his beloved Beauty and the Beast tale.
Brown will only appear in one episode, the air date of which is not yet known.
Once Upon a Time, meanwhile, returns from hiatus on Sunday, March 6.
Aside from True Blood, Brown’s television resume includes the 90210, Hart of Dixie, Private Practice and NBC’s short-lived drama Deception.
He was a series regular on the latter.
