We've Weighed in on the Casting for Jace on Hollywood Crush

This week we were one of a few TMI sites who had the chance to talk with Amy at Hollywood Crush about the TMI movie casting of Jace. There's been a lot of speculation and talk about Alex P being out of the running and who should be cast as Jace. Even Sophie and I are divided on who we think should cast.

In the video you'll see/hear Cassie, Lilly Collins, Natalie from TMI Examiner and myself all weighing in on the casting of Jace. You can go here to watch the video and read their article.


Thank you to Amy for the fun chat! We share very similar views on who we picture as Jace, and I enjoyed talking to her about our personal opinions.

While we've not been very vocal about our thoughts and feelings on the movie casting, we do want to say we are extremely happy that they're trying to find the perfect Jace, no matter who they cast. We're eager to find out more about the cast. We think Lilly is the perfect Clary and now we're anxious to see who the perfect Jace is.

  2. Just so nervous about this it is ridiculous. I of course have seen Alex P as Jace since the first time I ever saw a picture - on here actually. I am not sure I can handle the role being cast with someone who ruins that and have had it happen before in books to movies. I realize Alex may not happen (and sure wish I knew why. LOL)and then I will have to make the huge decision on whether I can see the movie and not have it ruin my many re-reads of the books. As second choices I liked Max Irons and do like Ed Speelers - the others really are a big NO for me. I would have to just watch I Am Number Four over and over to get my Jace fix!

  3. I like thesr guys,but Douglas Booth seems to be Jace to me. Was he ever considered/auditioned? I really hope so. Love JCB but he is Ciaud/Arthur for me. Of the 3 I think Ed Speelers would be good.

    Great interview, Katie! I with you and Ter05 regarding Alex... he's always who I've envisioned as Jace. And seeing him in Number Four... that really cemented my feelings about it him playing Jace for me... so it also upsets me that they're moving away from him in favour of someone possibly like Leebo. He may be perfect for another character I have in mind for book 3 (*cough* Sebastian/Jonathan)... but I don't see him as Jace - nor JCB (I pretty passionately dislike them both for Jace). Max Irons... hmmm... possibly with blonde hair... but I gotta say Max IS Will Herondale to me should ID ever go to film. I might be able to live with Ed Speelers portraying Jace... he's closer to the image I have next to Alex.

  7. I love that you are wearing a UT shirt! I was never a fan of Alex playing Jace :/ I can see it, but wasn't sold. I do like Leebo Freeman's look - very angelic badboy - which is how I pictured Jace, but can he act?

  8. Thank you for all the comments. I love talking to everyone about the casting of Jace. It's fun seeing how everyone has pictured in their mind.

    Terry- I'm with you. I've always picture Jace, even long before there was movie talk. I pictured him when I first read COB. I just hope that if he's for sure out of the running, that they'll find someone to bring Jace to life well, which it sounds like they are.

    Michele- Thank you.

    Sophie- two words, Pay Back. LOL

    Jessi- I can see Max as Jace now as well.

    Pixie- HOOK EM HORNS! I've wondered the same thing about Leebo. Like I said on the interview, I think Jace's casting is the going to be the hardest. They have to get someone who's the whole package... has the look and can act the part.

  10. I really do not see Jamie Campbell Bower as Jace. At all. And that's not just because I'm an Alex P. fan, haha. This is kind of like casting Edward all over again, I feel. It'll be hard, but I'm glad to hear they're taking their time and exploring their options.

  11. I've always thought of Alex as Jace because he is THE perfect Jace to me. Last month at Cassie's Portland signing, I asked her about Alex and the movie and she said he is still in the running. So unless things have changed in the last month...I will honestly cry and boycot the movie is JCB gets the role. He is the one person on that list that I do not want Jace. Anyone else would be fine.

  12. I'm still hoping and praying that Alex will play Jace. He just has that "certain something" that IS Jace. I can't imagine anyone else in the role.
