Mr. Gold/Rumplestiltskin
Rumplestiltskin, know as Mr. Gold after the Dark Curse, is a main character on the ABC American fairy tale drama Once Upon a Time and he débuts in the first episode of the first season. Rumplestiltskin is known to be a powerful magician with a penchant for making deals but in the course of the series will prove to have a tragic past and to be the mastermind behind the events of the lives of most of the characters.
He was a supporting protagonist/anti-hero in the first three seasons but becomes the main antagonist of the fourth season.
Rumplestiltskin is based on a character of the same name from the fairy tale, "Rumpelstiltskin". He also takes the place of the Beast from the fairy tale, "Beauty and the Beast" and the Crocodile from "Peter and Wendy".
The role of Rumplestiltskin was given to Robert Carlyle; it was written with Carlyle in mind, though the writers initially thought he would never accept the part. Horowitz recalled Carlyle's prison sequence, which was the actor's first day on the set as "mind-blowing...You could see Ginny actually jump, the first time he did that character. It was fantastic!"
Robert Carlyle revealed in an interview that it takes approximately two hours to dress him in Rumplestiltskin's costume, twenty minutes of which is spent on his boots. He also revealed that it takes about one hour to remove the costume. Robert's youngest son, Pearce, gave him the idea of how to do Rumplestiltskin's voice.
Originally, Rumplestiltskin is a quiet and humble man who despite having had some success in life he had to live in the shadow of his father's cowardice. Rumplestiltskin proves to be scared, but brave as he saw the opportunity to emerge from the shadow of his father, Rumplestiltskin willingly go to war, however, when a psychic tells him that he will die, leaving his unborn child to suffer chance to grow up without a father, Rumplestiltskin has second thoughts and returns home committing an act of self-harm.
