ABC's "Once Upon a Time" is heading to Camelot for its upcoming Season 5, and a couple of weeks ago the series found its King Arthur in Liam Garrigan.

Now "Once" has inked deals for more recurring guest roles that will join him:



Elliot Knight has been tapped to play Merlin.

The UK-born Knight starred in the 2012 Sky1/Syfy series "Sinbad", which lasted one season, and more recently appeared last season in multiple episodes of ABC’s "How To Get Away with Murder". He is next up in the movie Take Down opposite Ed Westwick and Jeremy Sumpter.



Joana Metrass is set to play Guinevere.

Metrass, born in Portugal and working in the UK, is next up in Guy Ritchie’s The Man from U.N.C.L.E. film adaptation.



In addition, Andrew Jenkins has nabbed the guest role of Percival, one of Arthur’s most loyal knights.

Jenkins recurred on AMC’s "The Killing" and now recurs on Fox’s "Wayward Pines".
