Photos: ‘Shadowhunters’ Begins Filming

Get ready, Shadowhunters. Because it’s happening!

While filming with the cast is scheduled to start on Monday, filming of some sort began on Thursday. There have been photos from an outdoor Toronto set posted by crew members.

We’re not sure what they’re filming, but it doesn’t seem to involve our young cast, who all had dinner with Harry Shum Jr. who has arrived in Toronto. (Like how ridiculously gorgeous and talented is our cast?!)

Just met & already love these guys @Kat_McNamara @DomSherwood1 @EmeraudeToubia @isaiahmustafa @MatthewDaddario pic.twitter.com/nh5eyFcuMA

No actors have been spotted on set, but there were a couple of stand-ins on set, who are probably filling in for the actors before filming begins.

Here’s two of the most awesome stand ins. Can you guess the characters they stand in for? @ShadowhuntersTVpic.twitter.com/xtsrtV75ll

As for what scene they could be filming, it sounds like it’s one that might involve Jocelyn.

Also, show runner Ed Decter (who recently joined Twitter) shared a photo from the crew getting set for a scene involving a pond of some sort.

Why did @McGsWonderland put a camera crane in this pond and what lurks beneath the surface? #ShadowhuntersTVpic.twitter.com/pEHzfahLoy
