Javier Muñoz's addition on "Shadowhunters" season 3 as the warlock Lorenzo Ray has been known to fans since the announcement in October. A recent photo posted on the show's social media account finally reveals the first look to his character.

The photo, posted on the Instagram of "Shadowhunters," shows the actor squaring off with Harry Shum Jr's Magnus Bane. The warlock, who originated from Spain, is a long-time rival of Shum's character.

Munoz told fans at the last New York Comic Con that he's eager for viewers to watch Ray, who is skilled with magic. The actor confessed he's been a fan of the show from the beginning and liked Magnus Bane a lot. He regrets he's going to constantly fight with him in "Shadowhunters" season 3 but playing the warlock is still a privilege as an actor.
