Shadowhunters ran for three seasons as it retold the story of City of Bones and adapted other books in the series, before the TV show also endured its own cancellation by Freeform in June 2018.

It seems the real reason why City of Ashes never happened is that they couldn't find a way to make the book series work as movies. In October 2014, Constantin Film confirmed that The Mortal Instruments would be coming back. Even if the first one doesn't become a gigantic success, we will have a profitable track ahead of us."ĭespite this, the plan to start filming the sequel – which would have brought back the first movie's cast and added Sigourney Weaver – in September 2013 was delayed indefinitely.
