By Hannah Lee, Assistant Senior Editor

Finally, another book-to-show adaptation. It has become very popular to see stories from books come to life on the screen. Recently, it was announced that the famous book series The Mortal Instruments was to become an Abc Family Production. Many famous actors were casted, such as Harry Shum Jr.. The cast has already started filming the show, and many fans are anticipating the release of this series.

“It think it will be much better than the movie, which came out a couple years ago. When a book is put into a movie, some details are lost and editors can’t fit it all in. I’m excited for this tv show because editors will be able to put those details in the story. Also, tv shows are more exciting and constantly keep you off your feet. I just can’t wait!”, said senior and TMI fan, Anjani Solanky.

The first episode is planned to be released January 12, 2016. The first episode is to be about the main character, Clary Fray, and her discovery of who and what she really is. Directors told fans that the show will be very closely detailed with the book. Tune in on Abc Family on January 12th to see if the directors were true to their word.
