The latest news for the Shadowhunter series was casting Dom Sherwood as our Jace, and now we have a Simon and an Isabelle.
Seeing this video of Alberto thanking the fans, yeah.... I do see him as Simon! I'm happy with the cast thus far. And I love that it's diverse. Casting done right!
Hey, here's the series' title art! It's awesome!
Alberto Rosende (a relatively new actor) will play Simon while Emeraude Toubia (also new) will play Isabelle Lightwood, ABC Family announced Friday afternoon. x
They are new actors and its freaking me out that we won't see a sort of reference to their previous works! Eeeep! I am only consoled with the thought that Cassie thinks they are great.
I love the actors they've cast so far. I'm delighted we have a diverse cast. They are gorgeous and talented.
