The new series Shadowhunters – based on the best-selling young adult fantasy books The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare – will debut on FreeForm (the new name for ABC Family) on January 12 at 9 PM.
Teenager Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara from The Fosters) finds out on her birthday that she is not who she thinks she is. She learns that she comes from a long line of Shadowhunters – human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. When her mother, Jocelyn (Maxim Roy from Heartland), is kidnapped, Clary is thrown into the world of demon hunting with mysterious Shadowhunter Jace (Dominic Sherwood from Vampire Academy) and her best friend, Simon (newcomer Alberto Rosende).
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.
The cast includes Alan Van Sprang (Reign), Harry Shum, Jr. (Glee), Isaiah Mustafa (Chuck) and newcomers Emeraude Toubia and Matthew Daddario.
