McG named first director, exec producer for 'Shadowhunters'

Oh My McG! Deadline has announced that McG is set to direct the opening episode of Shadowhunters on ABC Family and will be an executive producer on the series along with writer-showrunner Ed Dector.

 Shadowhunters, from the film’s producer Constantin Film, is slated to go into production in May in Toronto. The project expands McG’s relationship with ABCF, where he recently directed the single-camera comedy pilot Kevin From Work, which has been picked up to series with him executive producing. McG is repped by WME.

I don't know about you, but this news makes me super excited. McG has been a household name for me since his days working on The O.C. and Supernatural.
