Apparently, this Alec was casted perfectly. Taller and better looking than Jace but he doesnt know it and he doesnt even bother to fix himself up and use his charm on people. The way Matthew Daddario talks in the show is also kind of how I imagined Alec would talk: tensed and annoyed, not knowing any mundane nuances as if he hasnt talked or said something normal in a while. He also slouches and crumps when he walks akin to how Alec in the books is not as comfortable in his own skin like Jace was. And I love how this Alec only shows emotions around his sister. Also he obviously looks overprotective. The most spot on cast member in my opinion.
I honestly LOVE the way Daddario portrays Alec so far. I think casting him for the role was so perfect & I can't wait to see the rest of the series & how his character grows in the show.
omg he IS Alec. He thinks just like him. Holy shit I love it I am so happy right now. Love all the cast for Shadowhunters but I think they did an especially good job having Matthew as Alec.
I agree! Aside from the eyes, he looks like I pictured Alec and he seems to have such a deep understanding of the way Alec thinks. I also liked his little slip up when he was talking about malec meeting each other and he said "I see him" instead of Alec sees him. He's just such a great guy and I think he was absolutely perfect for Alec.
i really hate that so many people only talk about his looks. He's such a good actor and does an amazing job with alec and also in the other films he's done. He seems so lovely and I would really love if people started to value that over his looks.
So let's make a list, K, who doesn't love lists? TOP TEN REASONS TO FALL IN LOVE WITH MATTHEW HANDSOME DADDARIO 1. His scar above his brow 2. His voice 3. How dorky he is 4. The fact that he likes boots so he has a great sense of style 5.He's italian 6. His smile 7. His beautiful muscles 8. the change in his voice when he talked about the bow and arrow 9.he always has the rune on his neck everywhere 10. that warm feeling he gives you when you look at him.
He's so precious, his smile when he answered that Alec wud win is everything, my god I love him so much, he's rlly such a beautiful soul. He's such a perfect Alec, cudn't ask for anyone better. I love his scenes.. he has such presence onscreen, it's rlly magnetic to watch and GOOOOOOD WHEN there's scenes bet.him & magnus.. *my heart just flutters*
Matt daddario is such a great Alec. his acting skills are amazing. rewatching all the malec scenes I noticed all the little things extra that might go unnoticed. And omg he's so cute and funny in this interview. he seems like he would be really fun to hang out with in real life
"...our mundane selves are not quite as good looking or put together as our shadowhunter selves" Oh trust me, Daddario, shadowhunter or not, you're smoking af. Your face is such a distraction in a good way + the height and that smile. Jesus, that smile. 😂😝❤️ I thank God that you exist in this world 😂
This is still my fave Matt interview to date! love the archery talk, talking bout explaining the terminology to his mum and all things Malec! His smile though 😄. Perfect casting if you ask me 👌🏻
Tell me the name of the person who was in charge of the casting for this show I need to formally thank that amazingly genius person for casting Matt Daddario as Alec. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU HE IS THE PERFECT ALEC
I thought at first, I would hate the show because they usually ruin the storyline. But the show, though it's been changed compared to the book, is amazing. And Matt plays Alec so well. Grumpy Alec from the book is definitely present in the show 💕💕
I know the tv show is a lot different from the books, but isn't change kind of nice? I see it as a cover of a song, or someone's art being redrawn by another person. It's just one thing attempted in different ways.
I LOVE THIS COMMENT THIS SUMS UP EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! I will always love the books, and I loved the movie because it was a different interpretation. And now I love the show because it keeps me on my toes, I don't really know what's gonna happen. THANK YOU FRO THIS COMMENT!
+Jordan Pearson I feel the same way. The best part is that Cassandra helps, so the characters are a bit different, but their core is still the same. If you know what I mean.
I love my Matthew Daddario he is the love of my life 😍😍😘😘 I can’t wait to see him again for S3 !!! I’m missing my Alec Lightwood so freakin much it hurts knowing what his been up too and even what matt is up too

Oh my god yes. He is so adorable
+shadowhunters af i don't understand the question??? :(
AND THE EYE ROLL HOLY FUCK😭😍😂

+xSkullGirl808 Now that we've seen the entire season we can say that Matthew is indeed PERFECT as Alec. And Malec is life :)
devon baldwin
Katrice Baldwin ???
When he said Malec, with that gorgeous smile on his face, I melted.
Seriously, his face is perfect.
He is like the prettiest person ive ever seen
bomb tanin and gao wei guang over this dude any day
I know and his smile is just the cutest which makes you want to melt that second
I think he's a better fit for Alec than the movie cast
+Kasey Liang ikr. i mean the movie alec got the appearance, black hair and blue eyes.. but he kinda looked old.
αrl ɢrмeѕ true

I love how much he seems to love Alec as a character (:
omg he IS Alec. He thinks just like him. Holy shit I love it I am so happy right now. Love all the cast for Shadowhunters but I think they did an especially good job having Matthew as Alec.
Oh for sure 😀 and Harry Shum Jr as Magnus 👍☺️
I agree! Aside from the eyes, he looks like I pictured Alec and he seems to have such a deep understanding of the way Alec thinks. I also liked his little slip up when he was talking about malec meeting each other and he said "I see him" instead of Alec sees him.

I'm glad he got Alec, Alec was and will forever be my favorite character
I think I just fell in love ...
I could literally listen to him speak and watch him smile for hours
I love him. He have this rough, tough guy, fierce look on him but when he speaks his tone and voice is gentle its just so damn cute.
"I see him and I think, 'What is this? Who are you?'" lol
"CLARY'S AN INTERLOPER!" 😂😂😂
True Matt true
Seriously? The most beautiful man in the world!
true ❤
Something about him, very hard to define!
Apparently Jace is supposed to be the good looking one. But Alec is breath taking on the show.
So let's make a list, K, who doesn't love lists?

that Katniss lady
This interview is the best one of Matthew so far. The interviewer must be a warlock or something...
"what is this, what are you saying at me?"
Matt's mom is me in every situation.
I wish someone would talk about me like Matt talks about his shoes
HE'S SO FREAKING CUTE I JUST CAME HERE TO HEAR HIM SPEAK
I love the way he talks he's so calm and relaxing I could hear him talk for hours
"Obviously Alec would win, why are you bothering to ask this question" that was funny
I bet he's glad he didn't get the role in the movie, and got this one instead(; Lol, he's absolutely fabulous at his character.
He's so precious, his smile when he answered that Alec wud win is everything, my god
I love him so much, he's rlly such a beautiful soul. He's such a perfect Alec, cudn't ask for anyone better. I love his scenes.. he has such presence onscreen, it's rlly magnetic to watch and GOOOOOOD WHEN there's scenes bet.him & magnus.. *my heart just flutters*
I love it when the actor and the character that they're playing have the same thought process and the way Matthew defends Alec gives me feeeels
"That Katniss-Lady"
I'm so so happy with the casting for the Lightwood siblings and Simon
omg the accent and boy is he gorgeous
Matt daddario is such a great Alec. his acting skills are amazing. rewatching all the malec scenes I noticed all the little things extra that might go unnoticed. And omg he's so cute and funny in this interview. he seems like he would be really fun to hang out with in real life
oh please this isn't a Matthew Daddario interview, this is a Alec Lightwood interview.
MALEC
"...our mundane selves are not quite as good looking or put together as our shadowhunter selves" Oh trust me, Daddario, shadowhunter or not, you're smoking af. Your face is such a distraction in a good way + the height and that smile. Jesus, that smile. 😂😝❤️ I thank God that you exist in this world 😂
Jenna Locanas i couldn't live without him
why is he so damn perfect?
Sometimes I forgot this video is actually the reason why I fall madly in love with him. He looks mesmerizing in here.
This is still my fave Matt interview to date! love the archery talk, talking bout explaining the terminology to his mum and all things Malec! His smile though 😄. Perfect casting if you ask me 👌🏻
Tell me the name of the person who was in charge of the casting for this show I need to formally thank that amazingly genius person for casting Matt Daddario as Alec. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU HE IS THE PERFECT ALEC
miaidas Cassie chose himxD
Yeah, she apparently went through allll of the audition tapes for Jace and when she found Matthew she was like "why is Alec in the Jace category?" 😂
*swoon* he's just soo cute :3
the look he gives his boots is true love right there 😂😂😂
"What are you saying at me?" 😂😂😂 I just died, I love Matthew and Alec!!
Alec is my favourite character
MY HEART IS PHYSICALLY HURTING, SUCH A FLAWLESS FACE AND A GOLD HEART 😭
I love when he says "lemme tell you something" he says it in like every interview lol so cuteee
Yes I'm here again to say that I love the fact that he can't stop smiling while he's talking about Alec and the show
The best thing about the show is how much it is evolving and improving. It reminds me of how Supernatural got better as the years went on.
His face is a blessing. Thank you for existing Matthew. PAUSE AT 2:49 YOU'RE WELCOME
I thought at first, I would hate the show because they usually ruin the storyline. But the show, though it's been changed compared to the book, is amazing. And Matt plays Alec so well. Grumpy Alec from the book is definitely present in the show 💕💕
Cannot! imagine Matthew as jace
3:08 "Obviously Alec would win. Why are you wasting your time on that question?" AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is so gorgeous its not fair 😭💕
how is he so cute? Alec is the best thing about this show. I love him to bits.

I love how he smiles often and a generally happy guy 😍
God that smile could save lives
Omh he is Alec like when he started talking about Clary he sounded like Alec
He is literally Alec Lightwood
When I see Matt's smile I die instanly
He is so perfect.
I know the tv show is a lot different from the books, but isn't change kind of nice? I see it as a cover of a song, or someone's art being redrawn by another person. It's just one thing attempted in different ways.

Malec is the only reason I'm keeping up with the show
+Melinda, Or Lindy oh why? D:
Plus Harry as Magnus too. Am I the only one who thinks the tv magnus is sassier than tv jace? I expected those lines to be Jaces
