Cast Arden Cho as Aline on Freeform's "Shadowhunters"

The Issue

Arden Cho is a fantastic actress who has entertained viewers of the MTV series "Teen Wolf" for years. Unfortunately, Arden has not received the screen time she was promised, with her scenes being cut from final versions of episodes, her character being written out for episodes at a time, and the show not giving her character, Kira, the attention she deserves. Arden has expressed her feelings about this, and fans of hers, as well as fans of "Teen Wolf" have come to her defense, telling the showrunners that Arden deserves better. However, the showrunners do not seem to be listening. This has led fans of "Shadowhunters" (some of whom also watch "Teen Wolf") to rally together and support the idea of Arden being cast as Aline Penhallow, a book character from the Shadowhunter Chronicles (which the television series is based on). Arden would be perfect for the role of the strong, gay, woman of color. "Shadowhunters" has a great track record for treating its characters/actors who are women and people of color with the same respect as characters/actors who are white or male, and many fans agree that Arden would fit right in on the series.
