Daddario’s post was so well-timed that it created a sense of urgency—he was reminding everyone that the movie was starting in just one hour and creating that last minute excitement that gets people to drop everything and watch. What he said was all about the very things that make for a nice Christmas time viewing: popcorn, soft sofas, nice people, and superb actors. It’s the kind of warm invitation that makes you want to check your local listings right away.

What is more surprising is the way Daddario’s fans reacted—they not only expressed their excitement about his Hallmark debut, but also constantly asked for more Shadowhunters content. The double-layered response indicates that actors are usually linked with their most remarkable characters even while they are exploring the new genres and platforms. A viewer commented on this perfectly: “I’m so excited to watch it for you, because you’re my favorite actor! Please, I also need Shadowhunters to come back, we need more Malec.” The use of “for you” instead of “of you” is a significant indicator—it hints at the personal investment in Daddario’s triumph that is above ordinary fandom.

A fan’s message was so intimately connected with art: “Matthew Daddario stealing hearts and lighting up big smiles since 1987! I’m looking forward to this one!” The mention of the year—his birth year—implies either scrupulous knowledge or a cute exaggeration, in any case, it shows great appreciation. On the other hand, the plain statement “You are loved!” made by another follower cuts through the cacophony of communication with its unpretentious honesty.

The wide geographical range of Daddario’s attractiveness became very clear with the comments. The audience not only from Spain, Italy, France, Germany, and India shared their excitement but also they had to deal with the local availability problems. One Indian fan gave a very moving viewpoint: “Dear Matthew Daddario I stay in India and this game is not played here,

cricket is very much popular here, but I will watch the movie for you.” The pure support from this audience member for the actor imitates the willingness to go through the hassle of watching a movie based on a sport which is absolutely not their culture. Thus, it gives the impression that Daddario possesses a strong bond with the audience all over the world.

Multiple viewers were willing to share their positive experiences after watching the movie. “Loved the movie it was so much fun you all did an amazing job,” one of the audience members posted and another one said “100000/10 super cute and fun holiday movie!!!” The instant positive response indicates that Daddario’s switch to the Christmas movies has been successful. One Buffalo native even said “you did Buffalo proud,” which implies that the regional aspects were convincingly portrayed.

The craving for more Alec Lightwood character, however, was the most dominant theme in the comments. A lot of viewers made direct requests for either a Malec spin-off or more episodes of Shadowhunters; this shows that fans, while very happy to support Daddario’s new role, have not let go of his breakthrough character. Someone put it succinctly: “My sincere request is that you and Harry do a Malek movie. This has been our wish for a long time, and you deserve it.”

The crowd’s reaction paints a picture of a very strong connection between the actor and his audience no matter the project or platform. Making a move from fantasy drama to Christmas romance may be a huge shift, but Daddario’s fans keep following him with excitement—even when they subtly remind him of the character that first won their hearts. The concurrent celebration of his fresh work and the soft calls for the return of past characters form a rich, multifaceted bond between the actor and the audience that seems both nurturing and lasting. As one of the viewers nicely put it: “Happy to see you in more stuff”—a very simple yet profound statement that sums up the notion of a fanbase maturing along with their favorite actor’s career.
