Let’s show off the power of our fandom to do good.”

Freeform said in a press release that the remaining 12 episodes of the series will premiere in spring 2019 and will conclude with a two-hour finale to “wrap up the tale of the Shadowhunters and Downworlders that fans have loved over the past three seasons.”

“We are very proud of Shadowhunters, a series that broke new ground in the genre world and became a fan favorite,” the network said in a statement. “However, along with our partners at Constantin, we reached the very difficult decision not to renew the show for a fourth season.  But, as big supporters and fans ourselves, Freeform insisted on and championed the filming of a special two-part finale that would give devoted fans a proper ending. The twelve episodes will air in spring of 2019. We want to thank our talented creators, producers, cast, and crew along with our colleagues at Constantin for their hard work and dedication and to Cassie Clare for her incredible book series. We look forward to the final chapter of this breakthrough drama.”
