Former “House” star Jennifer Morrison has scored the lead role of Anna on ABC’s new fairy tale themed pilot “Once Upon a Time.” The 31-year-old actress joins a cast that includes Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow White, Josh Dallas as Prince Charming, Jamie Dornan as a Sheriff of Storybrooke, Jared Gilmore as Anna’s son Henry, and Lana Parilla as the Evil Queen.

Created by “LOST” executive producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, the show follows Anna as she’s beckoned to the small town of Storybrooke by her biological 10-year-old son Henry to break the spell the Evil Queen has cast upon them.

Morrison, who starred as Dr. Allison Cameron for six seasons on the Fox medical drama “House,” made her horror film debut in the 1999 supernatural frightener Stir of Echoes. Her first lead role came a year later in the slasher Urban Legends: Final Cuts. She was most recently seen as Captain James T. Kirk’s wife on J.J. Abrams’ 2009 Star Trek reboot.
