‘Shadowhunters’ Season 3B preview EXCLUSIVE: Jade Hassouné on why the show will never truly end

In the final 12 episodes of the last season, all the creatures come out to play and Meliorn will have to decide once and for all whose side he really is on
UPDATED FEB 6, 2019

With Freeform's hit 'Shadowhunters' coming to an end, both fans and cast members feel bittersweet about the series taking its final bow this Spring. MEAWW spoke with cast member and fan favorite Jade Hassouné, who plays the morally ambiguous Seelie Meliorn, about the resurgence of his character in 3B and how the 'Shadowhunters' legacy will live on. Even though fans have been smitten with Hassouné’s portrayal of Meliorn since the second he hit our small screens, he has always been somewhat of an outsider in the 'Shadowhunters' world. Hassouné expanded on this sentiment, explaining why Meliorn is different from other characters and the bigger picture that is really at play.

"Seelies are a race of beings that are not human, not demonic and not angelic... so they already don’t belong anywhere. They have their own dimension, they live forever, they watch all of the human drama play out over centuries and they have sort of a wider perspective of everything."
