Emeraude Toubia Sets First Post-‘Shadowhunters’ Role With New Hallmark Movie
“Shadowhunters” fans will be saying goodbye to the much-loved Freeform series next month, but star Emeraude Toubia won’t be off their TV screens for long.
The actress, who plays Isabelle Lightwood on the demon-hunting show based on the Cassandra Clare “Mortal Instruments” novels, has set her first post-“Shadowhunters” role. She’ll be making her Hallmark Channel debut in “Love in the Sun,” which premieres only a few weeks after the show’s two-and-a-half-hour series finale.
Toubia, who announced her marriage to longtime boyfriend Prince Royce last month, will have Freeform alum Tom Maden (“Famous in Love”) as her love interest in the Countdown to Summer film. Shawn Christian, a fellow “Famous in Love” alum, has also been cast in the movie.
Premiering May 25, “Love in the Sun” sees Toubia starring as an engaged woman trying to figure out what in love and life truly makes her happy.
“When successful dating app creator Alana [Toubia] hesitantly gets engaged, she returns to her hometown in Florida to deliver the news to her dad,” according to the synopsis, Deadline reports. “Upon returning home, she crosses paths with her former flame, Kai [Maden], and finds herself falling in love with the fun and adventurous lifestyle tied to her community.”
The synopsis continues: “As Alana and Kai work together to help her dad restore his declining property, Alana finds herself conflicted as to whether or not her current way of living makes her happier than the home and community that she always knew and loved.”
Catch Toubia on “Shadowhunters” on Mondays on Freeform at 8 p.m. EDT, and then see her make her Hallmark Channel debut in “Love in the Sun” on May 25 at 8 p.m. EDT.
