'Once Upon a Time' adds 'Nikita' star Noah Bean

Noah Bean has landed a guest role on ABC's Once Upon a Time.

The Nikita star will play a romantic stable boy on the fantasy drama, according to TVLine.

Spending much of his time at the fairytale world's royal stables, Bean's character will rebel against his social standing for true love.

Bean has played the recurring role of Ryan Fletcher on Nikita since 2010 and previously starred in the first season of Damages.

He has also appeared in episodes of Fringe, Private Practice and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Barbara Hershey also recently signed up for a Once Upon a Time guest role. The Black Swan actress will play Cora, the mother of the Evil Queen (Lana Parrilla).

Once Upon a Time airs on Sundays at 8/7c on ABC.
