Production[]

The renewal for the season was announced on April 21, 2017, during a live chat on Facebook with the cast.[1]

The writers began to officially meet to work on the season on May 30, 2017.[3][4] On July 20, 2017 at SDCC, it was announced that Alisha Wainwright was promoted to series regular as Maia Roberts.[5][6] On October 7, 2017 at NYCC, it was announced that Freeform officially ordered the additional 10 episodes (3B) to air in the summer of 2018.[7] The original premiere date that was announced was the 3rd of April,[8] before it was announced in December that the premiere had been moved to the 20th of March,[9] two weeks earlier than the original plan. Freeform's press release for its May 2018 lineup announced that the first half of the season (3A) would end with a two-hour mid-season finale on May 15, 2018.[10]

Principal photography began on August 21, 2017,[11][12][13][14] took a break on December 6, 2017,[15][16] resumed on January 22, 2018,[17][18] and ran until May 2, 2018.[19][20] Additional filming took place afterwards in Paris.[21][22][23]

On June 4, 2018, it was announced that Shadowhunters was cancelled, in part due to Constantin Film losing its deal with Netflix,[24][25] and that 3B would return in spring 2019. An additional two episodes, to air as a two-hour series finale, was ordered in order to give closure to the storyline.[26] It was announced on the 3rd of November that 3B would return on February 25, 2019.[27]
