Shadowhunters, the TV series based on Cassandra Clare’s YA fantasy book series The Mortal Instruments, has found a U.S. home: ABC Family has acquired rights to the series, a spinoff of the 2013 feature film The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones.
With a U.S. outlet locked, Shadowhunters will go into production in May in Toronto. Based on Clare’s bestsellers, the series will reboot the chronicle of the Shadowhunters led by Clary Fray and Jace Wayland in one-hour episodes beginning with the first book, City Of Bones, and expanding into later books as the series progresses. No cast has been set.
