"Shadowhunters" Spoilers: Magnus And Alec's First Date Is A Bust
Freeform's new sci-fi drama Shadowhunters brings the characters from the Mortal Instruments book to the small screen—including warlock Magnus Bane (Harry Shum Jr) and his love interest, Alec (Matthew Daddario).
In a new promo on TVLine for tomorrow night's episode, though, it looks like the course of true love is not running smoothly.
Magnus asks Alec out on a date but doesn't get the response he expected.
Magnus: "I was just thinking it was really nice getting to know you. You seem... sympathetic. Would you like to go out for a drink sometime?"
Alec: "That sounds fun—when?"
Magnus: "How about right now?"
Alec: "Y'know, now’s not really a good time for me. Another time—gotta go.”
How will #Malec fans endure the sheer torture before their inevitable hookup?
Below, NewNowNext spoke with Shum and Daddario about their characters' relationship.
Shadowhunters airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Freeform.
