  • I imagined Rachel Hurd Wood as Clary, and I think Jamie is perfect for Jace. But I know Lily is a big fan of TMI, so it helped me accept her

  • Clary is suppose to be 5 ft nothing, curly carrot-red hair, and freckles. And Lily is the polar opposite.

    Get an actual red-head to portray her, damn it!!!

  • I LOVE THIS BOOK OMG OMG EXCITED

  • don't care for Lily Collins at all... i like Jamie, who's cast as simon?

  • Lilys acting is actually pretty good! She was pretty good in Abduction, and i couldnt pick anyone else to play Clary if i had to....but im really disapointed Alex Pettyfer isnt playing Jace....thats just plain disapointing...

  • I like her for the role as long as the dye her hair so she's a light redhead. As for the person they've landed for Jace, they better make him blonder. 

  • I found that Lily's APPEARANCE suits clary, but i though her acting was.... let's just say not exactly top notch. -_- Especially in Abduction (it was almost commical).

    Does anyone agree?

  • The only characters i am really worried about are Alec and Magnus Bane.....If they screw up the casting for them I am going to be pissed, along with many others.

  • Comment removed

  • No offence...the casting sucks... I was hoping for better... I dont know if they can reach up to the intensity of the story... :/

  • I guess Lily will be OK. I feel like they could do better but then I'd have no idea who. Jamie as Jace, however, is one of the worst decisions ever. They need to postpone the movie for Alex!

  • I don't know why everyone is hating on this actor. She'll be amazing for the part.Don't like her? Don't see the movie and stfu. I refuse to see the movie because of the guy they chose for Jace. Once I found out I was like- OH.. UGH... No.

  • iM just ticked that "Jace" wont be played but Alex Pettyfer THAT MAKES ME MADDDDD!

  • DON'T READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS.ï¿ YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMMOROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE HOWEVER IF YOU DON'T POST THIS COMMENT TO THREE VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN TWO DAYS.ï NO, YOU'VE ALREADY STARTED READING SO DON'T STOP THIS IS SCARY. PUT THIS ON FIVE VIDEOS IN THE NEXT 143 MINUTES WHEN YOUR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SCARY CAUSE IT WORKS! x-x

  • I don't like that she will be playing Clary.... I thought of someone else like Emma Roberts or someone like that....

  • @Cideb500 me too! :)

  • @Cideb500 lily is way cuter.

  • i love her eyebrows... she looks like a normal human being. eyebrows are not supposed to be drawn on. I love that she will be playing Clary.

  • whos gonna play magnus :D

  • SHUT UP WITH THE EYEBROW-THING! she is gorgeous, and so are her eyebrows! you sound so dum, when you comment bad things about other people!

  • o.O wtf .. noo :D

  • she needs to pluck her eyebrows Oo

  • I hope Alex Pettyfer will land Jace's role. I hope it sooooo badly.

  • I want matt angel as simon

  • Sorry I ment don't kill it

  • I can't really see her as Clary (no offence Lily) I can't wait for City of Bones to come I read all the books :) I just hope they kill it like Twilight I'll be so pissed

  • they better not ruin this movie

  • when the f*ck is it going to come outtt???????

  • love the choice she is perfect!!

  • Love Her! Perfect Choice!

  • SHe dosesn't even have red hair -____________-

  • @LisaLisa528 That's what dye is for lol

  • @LisaLisa528 They can die it or give her a wig :/

  • when will the movie come out?

  • SO EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE!!!

  • also, if this helps, I can't picture Clary with red hair. I picture Isabelle with red hair, and Clary with brown hair

  • stop complaining about who's who, it's the story that matters.

  • I just hope they pluck her caterpillar eyebrows before city of bones...

  • @SneezeOnMe1 Hahahaha :D:D:D!

  • She looks too old! Why do they always pick actors that are in their 20s to play young adults in books!

  • Comment removed

  • @KAYLAxSMILES...the books were like a nuclear bomb next to twilight, you like action? you got it served in all books

  • And yah i think lily collins is pretty but i don't really see clary in her

  • I was on the website for the series and it said that Alex Pettyfer isn't playing jace.

  • Alex Pettyfer as Jace n her as Clary, they really picked the right people this time! It's PERFECT!

  • why does it have to be her she doesn't even resemble Clary AT ALL!!!!!!!

  • Nooooo! I hope she backs out or something! She and Alex wont have good chemistry on screen!

  • Not Alex Pettyfer. I personally think they need someone with a dark look to them. He isn't it. I like him and all, but just not for this role.

  • Well, I don`t really like Lily at all ( her eyebrows -.- are just killing me)

  • I want to play Clary sooooo bad!!! Why can it be me????? They are my favourite books...EVER!!!!! I bet she has only read the books since she got the role or maybe nit at all. I hereby greatly dislike Lily Collins.

  • do they call THAT red hair?? I'm sorry but that's lightly cuppery at the most

  • I really wish Alex Pettyfer played Jace, he's be perfect for the roll.

  • Is it actually a movie?

  • she would be a good clary lol but Valentine should be Gerard Butler hes so hot and he is an awesome bad guy ;) hope i can see him in the movie lol

  • I hope they Don't give her freckles!

  • @6purplemonkeys why not?they're awesome

  • Guys if you love City of Bones and The mortal instruments series the go on Face Book and like our page called Team Shadow Hunters! Feel free to comments and to post!!

  • I don't care if Lily plays Clary. I'll survive if Jamie plays Jace. I'm just waiting for someone to play SIMON!!! :D Cast someone as Simon, and I'll be a happy lady.

  • @0hananah0 I know right! I love Simon. he's my favorite. I hope they pick someone who gives off that sarcastic, adorable vibe of him!

  • @0hananah0 I know right! I wanna know who Simon could be too! I love Simon!

  • @0hananah0 I could totaly play Sebastian (Introduced in Cit of Glass)

  • @theatergeek616 It's horrible. I mean I can tolerate her probably (if they fix her hair and eyebrows). But the choice for Jace is just no. It is an awful choice

  • @polkadot1213 agreed.

  • @polkadot1213 i agree tottaly. that guy is to old (and kinda ugly....) i mean hes what 17? they should get a teenager to play him. and a teenager to play clary.

  • @superhotpinkninja He is ugly for the role haha I mean I guess he could be good looking for a different role, if that makes sense. And I completely agree. He is horrible for the role. And I'm 17...does that make me old? o.0 haha

  • @polkadot1213 fuck u.

  • @polkadot1213 i kno what u mean exactly!! but just think tho they MUST have casted jamie as jace for his amazing portrayal of jace wayland not just based upon looks unfortunately haha

  • i think she looks great and definitely what i imagined calry to be if she had red hair but i think the person they chose for jase looks gay and not cocky enough to play him. 

  • I love her as Clary and sorry but Alex isn't Jace it is Jamie Campbell.

  • I love her as Clary and sorry but Alex isn't Jace it is James Cambell.

  • She will be ok looking for the role once she dyes her hair and gets some makeup freckles, btw i hope Alex Pattyfer plays Jace! Thumbs up if u agree tho i dont really care

  • @smilyface299 Yeah that is what I thought when I first looked at her, because she doesn't fulfill my vision of Clary, Then I thought if they dye her hair red and give her some freckles, she could resemble Clary. I like the newest book a lot so far.

  • @smilyface299 How is she nothing like Clary? and I have read them, I am currently reading City of Fallen Angels. 

  • i really want to know who's going to be simon and all the other characters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

  • I like her as Clary. I mean i didn't really imagine Clary as Lily when i was reading COB but i think she'll be really good.

  • @smilyface299 Why? 

  • Did they already F up the lead roles? Wonderful! -.-

  • @belikebribri i knowww....I really think they will mess up this...i mean, I definitely LOVE the books...but I ALREADY know...this movie will suck, they will change lotss of things...so they will make some shity script T,T

  • i dont like her eyebrows...=C && I dont like her as clary...&& alex P turned down the job...so this movie will suck =C i love the books, I'll hate the movieee, & I know so...cuz for me, AP is Jace, && I cant imagine Clary as anyone...bt That girl, isnt clary at all!!!!!!!!!

  • go to imdb she has red hair....

    alex pettyfer turned down the job for some fucking english movie!!!

  • This movie better not turn out like, fucking twilight.

    I'll have to shoot someone -.-

  • @KAYLAxSMILES So will I...

  • @KAYLAxSMILES

    YEAH....I liked twilight books...&& now i hate them bcause of the fkin movie & that thing called Robert Pattinson T,T..........I LOOOOOOVE THE MORTAL INSTURMENTS BOOKS...but...if the movie turn out to be without AlexP...&& with that girl, i'll shoot myself

  • @KAYLAxSMILES i agree with ya i will be pissed if this turns out bad

  • @KAYLAxSMILES Couldn't agree with you more!

  • @KAYLAxSMILES else.

  • okay guys im sorry she's pretty and all but she is NOT Clary!!!

  • when does the movie come out jw???

  • Arg, she looks too grown up and elegant to fit my picture of Clarissa

  • She really, really, REALLY needs to have the red hair. If not I'm gonna be so mad... O.o

  • I imagined her.... Slightly... Broader? I don't mean fat I mean... On the front cover of the book it has her more broad shouldered but still slight? I dunno maybe I'm crazy.

    Also, she had best dye her hair or get a wig because I am not having a repeat of Percy Jackson. ANNABETH IS BLONDE GODDAMMIT!

  • Egh, having Alex as jace is just as bad as robert P. for Edward. Im sorry but i dont think he's hot :( I can't really think of a clary though. The book is good and all and I love the naruto references but I can predict what happens WAY before it does. She needs to make the hints more subtly, it's practically punching me in the face with foreshadowing. Sorry if I'm offending you, but that's what I think..........plus you have to admit, Simon almost dies ALOT. Then clary runs after him and jace

  • just finished the 4th book and now i have to wait till freaking 2012 for book 5!

  • @martinalyssa75 you have to read all the books there amazing

  • I personally thing Emma Roberts would be a better Clary than Lily Collins.

  • dear god she's famous....somebody PLEASE fix her eyebrows!!!!!!!!!

  • i've been trying to think of who i would chose for clary and i cant think of anyone...if it had to be lily collins i think it wouldnt be a bad choice...with red hair and green eyes i believe she might be able to pull off clary...if they do something about the eyebrows...but it wont make a difference if alex pettyfer doesnt play jace

  • don't really like that idea but if they sick with her they need to do something with the eyebrows

  • I love Lily Collins but she's not Clary in my opion - So glad they're asking Alex for Jace he is PERFECT!!!

    I'm worried tho that the films will wreck the books just like they did with Twilight series - love them tho :) xx

  • When I think of Clary Fray, I don't think Lily Collins.

  • i don't think lily collins looks anything like a clary... just my opinion. i wish they at last had a casting call for clary instead of just picking her...

  • SHE'S PERFECT!!!!! just like jace... huh i mean alex ;)

  • NOoooooooooooo when I heard this I cried I also cried abt the hunger games cast!

  • Like her as Clary

    I hope that Alex Pattyfer acts Jace

  • @1234binki lol

  • @1234binki noooo he doesnt! i really wanted him to be but jamie campbell bower is D: !

  • @1234binki Jamie Campbell got Jace and why, I can't understand. He looks like a GIRL!!

  • @1234binki Alex Pattyfer would be PERFECT to play Jace

  • i dont think she is pretty or good enough to be clary!

  • I don't find her the right actress for Clary...

  • WHY DOES HOLLYWOOD THINK THAT THEY HAVE TO TURN EVERY GREAT BOOK SERIES INTO A MOVIE !?! Seriously? Can they not just be amazing as books? I love this series and hate to see it get ruined like Twilight did. (Not that the Twilight movies are bad, cause well, Taylor Lautner ain't so bad on the eyes, lol, but I can barely stand to read anything out of the books without think of Kristen Stewarts horrible acting) Idk... I just wish they wouldn't do this.....

  • @rachelford2068 Duude, the Twilight books are horrible by it's self, though yes, the movies make the books look even worse. But I like it that they're going ot make a City of Bones movie, 'cause the book isn't that horrible. So I bet the movie isn't going to be all that horrible (:

  • OMFG!!!!!! theres gonna be a movie!! yesss! :D

  • I think Ariana Grande should be Clary from City Off Bones because shes 19 and Clary is 16 other than some 21 year old playing a 16 year old. Oh well it all lies in the acting.

  • mah gawd the eyebrows arent that much of a BIG deal. there are things called WAXING people.. jesus

  • NOOOOOO!

    She SO isnt right.

  • THE EYEBROWS.

    THE TERRORRR

  • im very sorry to say and it kills me to but Alex will not be playing Jace T-T he decided to take on another novel movie D: that he said he "prefers" more than The Mortal Instruments ;'( to get out the news it would help to like the comment... thx for reading guys and i hope they find another hot Jace lookalike better than Alex (even though its really impossible Dx)

  • Noooooooo!!!!! My life is temporarily ruined because of this!!!! Clary doesn't have bushy eyebrows!!!D:

  • there is this guy in my french class that looks like he could be Jace- for serious. its insane. every time i see him i have a tiny heart attck and think "JACE"!! but alas, he probably has never even heard of TMI. oh well, still so nice to nook at... his name is Jacob. JACob, JACe, i dunno :P

  • The Hunger Games vs. The Mortal Instruments! Get ready for some war.

  • @TheIridescentDreamer Psh, there wouldn't even be a war because The Mortal Instruments would tottaly CRUSH the Hunger Games. I love both books, but TMI is just badass(:

  • @101Allyouneedislove I haven't read all the books of the mortal instruments, but it seems like the hunger games has a bigger fan base. No offense or anything. I think the mortal instruments might be more successful because of the latest casting news for the hunger games.

  • @TheIridescentDreamer Oh that's okay! I respect your opinion(: I just am going by other websites and what other people say to me about the books. I absolutely ADORE both books, but TMI seems too be moving a little faster for the movie production of it. But, lately, more people are discovering this series and it is growing in popularity.

  • Comment removed

  • im supper excited ! as long as the producers dont fucking it up im happy ... it better be good :)

  • Ommmmmqq! i lve the book,i hope Jacee iss hot!! Omqq i wana See itt ;)!!!

  • THEY BERR CHOOSE MAX IRONS AS JAAAAAACE <3

  • Something about her eyebrows bug me.

    Can't put a finger on what it is, but..

  • @AlyssaMackinnonn I think she needs to groom her eyebrows or brush em or something. lmao. not to be mean but i do love her as clary now but if she doesnt do something about the eyebrows, im goiing to be staring at them for the whole time when i watch the movie. lmao :) but i still luv yuh lilly:)

  • @AlyssaMackinnonn

    agreed! there very messy around the middle

  • @AlyssaMackinnonn To me it's defiantly the way they're so much darker than her hair...

  • @AlyssaMackinnonn Lmao, this comment just made my night.

  • Cary's not my most favourite character in the series, admitedly. =P Buuut, Lily Collins will do well as her! Atleast, that's what I think.

    C'mon guys...Alex Pettyfer HAS to be Jace. xD

  • @HarryPotterForever98 AGREED ON PETTYFER!

  • i hate clary :/

  • shes alittle too old for the role cuz isnt clary spossed to be 16??

  • Molly C. Quinn should have been Clary. She looks just like Clary.

  • i didnt know phil collins had a kid! o.o

    but thats awsome that shes gonna play clary! 8D

  • i think lily collins will suck balls at being clary she doesnt even look like her

  • yayyy!! shes perfect 4 clary!!

  • lily has already died her hair red for the role.

  • NO WAY! clary should be a girl with curly red hair!!!

  • I think she'll do a really good job with the role!!!

  • Alex Pettyfer HAS to be JACE!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Shelbieandchewee nahh, he needs 2 be peeta in the hunger games, but i do ♥ him as jace thoughh

  • Alex pettyfer is Jace!! I can't see him as peeta, well I can see him as peeta a few years ago, but now, he's perfect for Jace, almost to perfect.

    Alex pettyfer for Jace, for Peeta, I'm going to say Hunter

  • Alex would be disappointing A LOT OF girls! INCLUDING ME! Why are Hunger Games people on here? Don't get me wrong I love Hunger Games! But Alex is perfect for Jace. Almost too perfect.

  • She's good. Sorry guys, but apparently Alex Pettyfer bailed on us for another movie. He was super close to accepting... :(

  • Alex Pettyfer should play Jace for sure!!!!!

  • Did this movie come out?

  • maybe as isabelle, but clary.

    hell no!

  • screw Clary,, WHO'S PLAYING JACE?!?!?! ALEX PETTYFERRR PLEAAAASE!!!

    i'm sorry that was mean,, congrats to Lily,, she'll make a great Clary,, blah blah blah....

    JACE JACE JACE JACEEE?!?!? ALEX?!?! PLEAAASEEE!!!!

    =)

  • This and the Hunger Games will/are the best movie/book ever!!

  • Comment removed

  • ahhhh! so freaking excited for this movie!!!!

  • phil collins?

  • you noo if alex pettyfer doesn't get the role, i think - i THINK - Alex Watson (Emma Watson's younger brother) should try out for it. he's got a really delicate face like Valentine, and i think alex nd lily wood look perfect together. LAWL =P

    apparently Alex Pettyfer doesn't want to play Jace because another book turned movie asked him for their lead role. sigh* how sad =P

    LOL =P HAHAHHA ! but i think Alex Pettyfer should SERIOUSLY accept the Jace role =)

  • HATEEEEEEEEEE HERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR EW.

  • hmmm it just occurred to me now... that the idea of Adam Lambert being Magnus Bane would be a great idea :D

  • She will do a good job but they will have to alter her appearance quite a bit! Clary has red hair, green eyes, and freckles. 

  • @TheGily15 well she can dye her hair and wear contacts but i think freckles would be kind of hard...lol. she doesn't have to look exactly like clary, just enough to satisfy.

  • OMG i had no idea they were doing a movie, Great series!!!!

  • Can people shut the hell up about her being wrong for Clary? A) Cassandra Clare probably chose Lily Collins herself as she is the author of the books + has the image of Clary in her head, B) You haven't seen the movie yet to judge, C) They will probably alter her looks slightly and people saying she's like 'girly' - well, actresses act, so - she would have to be like Clary. Just saying, don't judge so easily.

    She seems perfect for the role IMO. She's gorgeous and seems like a good actress. :)
