Once Upon A Fan

E-Online recently caught up with Colin O'Donoghue to talk about his feelings with regards playing such an iconic Dinsye villian. The hunky irish revealed that he decided to play Hook in a very different manner. "I decided to go in a little bit of a different way with the character. I kind of wanted him to be charming and in a sense manipulative as opposed to outwardly evil. I thought it would be good if he was sort of able to use his charm and I guess sexuality to get whatever he wants. If it doesn't work out then he can just kill them."

Colin also admits he was nervous taking on the role: "I was nervous because I knew that they had sort of already introduced the character at Comic-Con this year. I knew there was a huge response to that," he said. "I didn't feel any pressure because of who I was playing because the character was so different; It's in a completely different context, but I knew there was an expectation."

When asked about donning wigs and eyeliner for the role, Colin explained:  "There were conversations about having the long hair, but I wouldn't have minded either way." As for this Hook's affinity for eyeliner? "I've learned a little bit," O'Donoghue said of the product. "I've learned I'm pretty good at not blinking when they put it in!"

When questioned about his co-star and leading lady, Jennifer Morrison, O'Donoghue gave a juicy teaser as to where their rocky relationship could be headed. "They have a very interesting dynamic between the two of them because Emma is obviously a strong character, strong-willed, and Hook is Captain Hook, you know?" he teased. "So they have an interesting kind of back and forth. That's all I'm going to say at the minute!"
