'Once Upon a Time' Season 6 Spoilers: Will Hook & Emma Make 'Progress' In Their Relationship? [VIDEO]
Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) will be in a more positive place in season 6 of ABC's Once Upon a Time.
Now that Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and Hook are back on solid ground (a.k.a. not trapped in the Underworld), there may be some progress in their relationship in season 6. Once Upon a Time co-showrunner Adam Horowitz spoke on this in a new interview with Entertainment Weekly.
"Last year we saw Emma saying I love you to him when they weren't in any sort of danger," Horowitz said. "Hook is excited to progress that relationship. At the same time, he is on his path of redemption, and we are going to see Hook doing his best to be heroic this year."
The upcoming season of Once Upon a Time will feature many of our heroes turning inward to examine their own stories and future happy endings. This is mostly brought on due to the Land of Untold Stories, which was introduced at the end of season 5.
"That's actually providing the opportunity to look at our characters in a different way," Horowitz said in a previous EW interview. "What's really exciting about it is, for season 6, really being in Storybrooke again. As we hinted in the finale last year, in seeing the Evil Queen [Lana Parrilla] split, it's allowing us to do that for a lot of our characters - not as literally - but it's turning inward on a lot of these characters that we've been with for five seasons so far."
Additionally, the new season will harken back to the first two seasons in that it will tell one cohesive story, rather than being broken up into two halves like seasons 3, 4 and 5.
Once Upon a Time season 6 premieres Sunday, Sept. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
