Clary Fray is a woman on a mission when Shadowhunters returns tonight for its third season (Freeform, 8/7c).
“With everything that’s happened to her in the Shadow World, Clary has been changed inherently,” Katherine McNamara tells TVLine of her character’s journey. “She’s gone from this wide-eyed little girl who sees the Shadow World as a source of wonder to a woman who knows that this world is harsh and cold and that people die all the time.

Watch an exclusive clip from the film below.
