More casting news has come in for “Shadowhunters,” the straight-to-series drama based on Cassandra Clare’s YA fantasy series The Mortal Instruments, which was recently picked up by ABC Family. Deadline is reporting that Vampire Academy‘s Dominic Sherwood has been cast as the male lead Jace.
“Shadowhunters” follows 18-year-old Clary Fray, who finds out on her birthday that she is not who she thinks she is but rather comes from a long line of Shadowhunters – human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. When her mother, Jocelyn, is kidnapped, Clary is thrown into the world of demon hunting with mysterious Shadowhunter Jace and her best friend, Simon. Now living among faeries, warlocks, vampires, and werewolves, Clary begins a journey of self-discovery as she learns more about her past and what her future may hold. McG will direct the premiere episode.
“Shadowhunters,” from the film’s producer Constantin Film, is slated to go into production in May in Toronto.
