With Shadowhunters set to begin filming in less than two weeks, the cast and crew are hard at work preparing for the show.

On Tuesday, McG McG was out in full force on Twitter today sharing behind-the-scenes artwork and photos, which included shots of Dominic Sherwood and Emeraude Toubia training and kicking butt for their roles as Jace and Isabelle.

Also, Katherine McNamara, who is a natural redhead, hit the salon to trade in her blonde locks for her natural red. That’s right, our Clary will soon have her signature red hair.

But not the day they start you mean? Damn, sometimes that’s more frustrating than many fans’ (like me) hopelessness here at the other side of the world!

Wow, they are looking really like their characters, I hope everything works out. I’m gaining hope.

I’m loving the cast till now 😊 they all look perfect choices to me 😊 but I have to admit that my favorite so far is Simon. I mean I look at the actor and I see the Simon I’ve ever imagine while reading the books 😊 even the way he speaks and acts (at least for what I saw in the video) it seems so “Simonish”. 😁 I’m totally completely so excited for the series 😊

Nope. Why won’t they just hurry up and choose?!?
