Katherine McNamara strikes a pose for this new feature with Cosmopolitan!
The 23-year-old actress opened up about the final episodes of Shadowhunters, the #SaveShadowhunters campaign, and dating. Check it out:
On #SaveShadowhunters bringing the show back: “Not that I know of, if I’m honest. But I don’t wanna ever say never, because who knows, crazier things have happened in this world. I mean, look at all the other shows that have come back. And who knows even 10 years down the line that we won’t come back and do something.”
On Shadowhunters changing her: “Everybody involved in the show has been such a wonderful influence on me and has shaped me. Even the guys big-brother-ed me and pushed me outside my comfort zone in the best ways. I did things that I never ever would’ve thought I would’ve done before.”
On dating: “I’m still trying to figure out how one dates as a millennial in our strange world of dating and our dating culture that I still don’t understand because I’m basically a woman from the 1950s in a 23-year-old’s body.”
Clary looks on cloud nine as she reunites with Jace in this still from Shadowhunters.
In “Original Sin”, while Simon (Alberto Rosende) is determined to get rid of the Mark of Cain and, with Isabelle’s (Emeraude Toubia) help, tries to track down New York’s oldest vampire to get more information on the mark, Clary (Katherine McNamara) is now in Paris, desperately trying to find an escape from her current situation.
Meanwhile, with his new sense of mortality, Magnus (Harry Shum Jr) tries to live life to the very fullest.
Shadowhunters airs TONIGHT, March 4th @ 8PM ET/PT on Freeform.
Is everyone else going back to dissect the premiere of Shadowhunters like we are?
After the premiere, showrunners Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer opened up about the physical bond Clary and Jonathan now have, thanks to Lilith’s demonic rune which has bound them to one another – forever.
“His affection and love for her is genuine. He has no ill feelings toward her,” Darren shared about the siblings’ relationship with TVLine.
Todd added, “You will really come to love and understand him, like you do all the great villains, like you did with Lilith last season. So even though Jonathan does despicable things and a lot of his actions are cuckoo-bananas crazy, you’ll grow to understand him.
But will Jonathan sway Clary to the dark side? Possibly.
“It wasn’t something that he planned. But now that it’s happening, he’s going to take full advantage of it,” Darren says. “We’ll find out more about the mechanics of that, and the origins of their bond, in future episodes.”
TELL JJJ: What was your fave part of the premiere?
The four stars all snapped their own pics for social media.
“For you angels, a place in @centralparknyc to call our own. A place for the #Shadowfam. A place for love. A place for all from us to you as a thank you and a statement of our love and admiration for each of you. YOU are our angels. 🖤,” Kat wrote on her Instagram.
Harry added, “If you’re in NYC @centralparknyc, the @shadowhunterstv bench is open for seating! Get creative and take some fun pics with your friends or any random demons you see walking the streets.”
The description on the bench reads: “A seat for every person, creature, and legend to share love, acceptance and equality.”
Shadowhunters premieres TONIGHT @ 8PM ET/PT on Freeform.
Speaking about the bond between Jonathan and Clary, EP Darren Swimmer shared with TV Guide that “the bond of blood is something that’s hard to separate.”
He added, “As much as Clary wants nothing to do with him, it’s hard for her to actually achieve that separation. It’s only going to get harder as things go on.”
Stay tuned for even more Shadowhunters!
FYI: Katherine is wearing an A.L.C. dress. Emeraude is wearing an A.L.C. top and pants with Rene Caovilla heels. Harry is wearing Gola Classics shoes.
Shadowhunters Sizzy shippers will finally get the moment they’ve been waiting for in the show’s last season!
Alberto Rosende and Emeraude Toubia both spilled on their character’s relationship in the upcoming season and it sounds like things are finally going to heat up.
“The way that Isabelle was there for Simon in his time of need, very similar to the way that he was there for her when she was going through her addiction, those are very strong ties that really bring people together. Then because of all the craziness that goes down in the world, they find more opportunities to be in the same room, and their connection has always been kind of electric, so I guess you can do that math,” Alberto told TV Guide.
Emeraude added, “It’s going to be a Sizzy season. I’m so happy because fans are finally going to see them together. They grow to know each other and see things in each other that maybe they didn’t see before … and it’s going to get so heated. There’s going to be a lot of heat, a lot of fire.”
Shadowhunters premieres Monday, February 25th at 8 PM on Freeform.
