UPDATED FEB 23, 2019

‘Shadowhunters’ fans are both thrilled and saddened to behold the final installment of the series, which will premiere this coming Monday, February 25 on Freeform. MEA WorldWide (MEAWW) had the honor of sitting down with the two men behind the show, executive producers Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer, who came onto the show after its first season.

The duo replaced season one EP Ed Dector, and at first fans were weary of the change. That said, it didn’t take long for the duo to get fans on to their side, taking on a darker but more interesting way of telling the story. Slavkin expanded on this and spoke about his initial worries after killing off one of the most important characters in the series, Clary’s mother Jocelyn.
