looked at the actors and not as excited. Jamie does not make a good Jace, and Lilly does not make a good Clary.. I hope the rest of the movie isnt a let down

I'm SO EXCITED!! Yay! Finally a date!! I've been holding my breath waiting for this for so long. These books are amazing! I think Lilly Collins will do a fantastic job, but agree about Jamie. He's so wrong for Jace. He's a fine actor, but I really hope someone else is cast.

If you haven't read this series yet, GET ON IT! And please, do not compare it to Twilight! You really couldn't be any farther from the truth~

Thank goodness they aren't choosing Jamie Campbell Bower for Jace!! I thought he would have been a terrible pick for that role. Alex Pettyfer would be WAYYY better…. cannot WAIT until this movie comes out 😀 Bring it on!

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!! So glad we have Lily, just need some some more cast announcements *cough*Daniel Craig for Valentine*cough* 😀
And to be honest The Mortal Instruments completely blows Twilight out of the water.

SO DARN EXCITED. Though it is pretty sad JCB isn't attached anymore… are you completely sure this is even true? I want Logan Lerman to play Simon and Nicholas Hoult to play Alec(: Omg, it's actually happening! The movie is actually coming guys! August the 23rd…. big day.

Yaaaaay! So excited that things are FINALLY moving ahead with this film. Hopefully the studio can sort out their contract with Jamie because I've gotten used to the idea of him playing Jace. Can't wait for more casting news – especially for Valentine, Simon, Magnus and Luke. 🙂

"By the Angel" !!!!!! I canÂ´t wait to see the movie, I have ALL THE BOOKS, and I have been waiting for the release of City of Bones for so long. Bravo "SONY" it was about time.

I HATE how everyone compares THG and TMI to Twilight. Twilight is for preteen fangirls who don't know what good acting or self-respect in relationships is. Anyway.
Cassie said this on her tumblr page today: "As for the part about Jamie, what I know is that theyâre in negotations about his contract. Thatâs it, thatâs all I know. You can ask me till youâre blue like a Smurf and I wonât know more. :)"
Honestly, I can't really picture Jamie as Jace. But Cassie and Lily Collins rave about him being perfect, so I don't really care what happens there, as long as we get someone goooood ;D
The rest of this stuff is all exciting!! Can't wait for August 23 🙂 of next year… lol

YES! Finally, some great news about the movie venture…Jamie Campbell Bower is no longer "Jace." What smart move!!! Now they can find someone who is actually good looking to play the sexy leading male.

so dissapointed ! At first I didn't approve of Jamie being Jace, but when i saw him in Anonymous, I knew he'd be a perfect Jace. I hope Cassandra Clare will be able to comment on this soon, or anyone else who knows what is going on.
Oh, btw, whose idea was it to compare Clary to Buffy? Totally off.

"Jamie Campbell Bower is no longer attached" — PLEASE tell me that's true, if so that'd be the BEST news ever! I've never accepted him as Jace. To put it bluntly, he's just too ugly/unattractive to play the sexy Shadowhunter.

So excited to hear that this movie is finally moving forward; I am a huge fan of the book series! I may be one of a minority, but I am sad to hear that Jamie is no longer attached. I had high hopes that he would make a good Jace. I hope it all works out so that he can be Jace.

ok no freaking way! I want Jamie to play Jace! Give us Jamie!!!!! I'm so pissed right now..

I'm looking forward to see this movie and seeing more casting! Especially for Magnus and Alec, my two favorite characters!

OH MY GOD!
Finally something's happen! TMI Fans waited so much for a long time that I think now we deserve a good movie!
I can't wait…and I hope Jamie is still in the project because I really like him! <3

One ticket for me, please! I'm a huge TMI fan. (And one for my boyfriend please, I'm gonna drag him along.)
Too bad Jamie Campbell Bower isn't set to play Jace anymore.
I sincerely hope they don't bring in Alex Pettyfer after all, who seems friendly enough when asked about all fancasting we do, but in the end frowns upon being attached to these young-adult franchises.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? Jamie's no longer Jace? I mean, I wasn't reaaally happy at first but now I had gotten used to him as Jace, now JAMIE CAMPBELL BOWER IS JACE. NO freaking way, who are they going to cast? some guy who doesn't even get what Jace is all about? No, I want Jamie who already demonstrated he WANTED to be Jace and really got how Jace is! GOOSHHH, I thought I would be happy with the news but for God's sake: LEAVE JAMIE AS JACE!
