SHADOWHUNTERS Cast Portraits For New York Comic-Con

If you haven’t heard already, the Shadowhunters cast, along with author Cassandra Clare, will be in attendance at New York Comic-Con!  Dominic Sherwood, Kat McNamara, Alberto Rosende, Emeraude Toubia, Matthew Daddario, Harry Shum, Jr., and Isaiah Mustafa will be there on Saturday to promote the ABC Family series.

And here are the NYCC portraits of each of them, along with some info about each of the actors.

Dominic Sherwood – Jace Wayland

Some may know him from another popular book-to-movie adaptation – he played the brooding black-haired royal vampire Christian Ozera in Vampire Academy, in which he met his girlfriend, Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland.  He was also seen as the romantic interest in Taylor Swift’s music video for her song, “Style.”

Matthew Daddario – Alexander “Alec” Lightwood

His older sister, Alexandra Daddario of the Percy Jackson movies, may be the better known of the Daddario family, however, that may change soon enough.  He was recently seen with actor Alexander Ludwig in the movie The Game Stands Tall, and he’ll be seen with Victoria Justice in the movie Naomi and Ely’s No Kiss List, as well as the horror remake, Cabin Fever.
