Shadowhunter's Alec Lightwood is ready for battle.

'Shadowhunters' TV Show: See Jace In Action, Epic Fight Sequence VIDEO; New PHOTOS From Set

One of ABC Family's new nephilim (half human/half angel), Matthew Daddario's Shadowhunter is busy putting demons to bed as production roles forward on the Mortal Instruments adaptation.

Photos from set indicate that Daddario, along with Dominic Sherwood's Jace, is spending long hours preparing for the series' face-paced fight scenes (check it out here). Thanks to director McG, a new video has surfaced of Alec and, although it is very brief, it gives viewers a first look at the hunter in action.

Shadowhunters is Daddario's first TV role, and the actor took a moment to talk about the Cassandra Clare series while speaking with Maxim.

"I'm not nervous at all actually," Daddario said of taking on a role from such a well-known and beloved novel. "I'm finishing up the books and I understand Alec [his character]. Everyone has certain things in common with the character you play and we definitely share some of the same traits."
