seems to me that british boys just keep talking and talking and thats perectly fine because 1. their accents are amazing, 2. we don't want to hear the interviewers voice as much.
Cant wait for August 2013! It's gonna be phenomenal, i can feel it. I just read an interview of Cassandra Clare (author of City of Bones). She said she literally cried when she saw Jamie's audition tape for Jace and thought, "That's my Jace". Even before Cassandra saw the tape, Lily Collins (who also did the scenes with Jamie when he auditioned) wrote to Cassandra and said, "It's gotta be Jamie... that's Jace standing there! When u watch the audition, you'll see what I see." So exciting!
I really don't understand why people say Jamie is not fit to play Jace; Jace has been described as tall and lean, leonine with an interesting face of wide-set eyes and high cheekbones. Everything about Jamie physically is Jace, as well as his personality.
Jamie is absolutely the perfect Jace in my opinion. I've already watched a few interviews before watching the movie with a friend a couple days ago. and now that I have seen The Mortal Instruments, the right choice was made. 100% and this interview made me laugh so hard, I'm still laughing.
i have hunted every interview clip I can find of Jamie Campbell Bower, and my goodness, his personality just shines! Every sarcastic quip he makes, every move with grace... HE IS JACE COME TO LIFE. there's an aura about him that isn't there in Alex. Alex is handsome and to die for and I love him, but Alex is not Jace Wayland. JAMIE IS JACE WAYLAND. Lu.... did you see the whole cast? It's absolutely perfect!
I saw Sweeney Todd, and I remember Jamie sang in that movie, and he had such an amazing voice! At first I was a bit doubtful that he could somehow bring Jace to life, but now, after seeing his funny and witty side in this interview, I am actually excited that he got the part of jace :)
"He just wants a family" *wipes away imaginary tear* I laughed a lot at that bit. He seems really genuine, actually knows what he's talking about and I agree, initially I was disappointed, but, yep, I'm quite looking forward to it now. Roll on August 2013!
Could he be any more lovely? I could feel the interviewer geeking out and he made her so comfortable..he's so funny and down to earth! I love him as Jace.
d'aww He's holidaying at Indonesia because of BONNIE'S WORK. This boy never takes a break. Then Bonnie's mum's family is Australian. D'aww he's so supportive.
Actually, Isabelle and Alec were both just cast lol. The girl who's to play Isabelle is Jemima West, and is French, so I'm not sure how that's going to work out. And Alec's actor hasn't been made public yet.Cassandra Clare posted the Isabelle news on her tumblr and said that Alec would be next. She said "Our Alec may well be a lot more known to you. He’s British, and …I’ll tell you who he is in the next post". But then the next post was her saying that she wasn't allowed to tell us yet.
I had no idea who they'd cast as Jace, and now i know, i can't imagine anyone else doing a better job. He IS Jace...and i love that he's British :) he actually makes me glad to be a brit
Hi Lu...well, when I saw Alex Pettyfer in the movie Beastly, he had these rune-like marks on him that reminded me of Jace Wayland, & since then I have envisioned Jace as Alex Pettyfer, & his face always pops into my head everytime i read the books. Also, Alex is gorgeous, but admittedly he lacks in the personality department. So when I 1st heard Jamie is playing Jace, I was bummed. But now, oh gosh, I realized his personality is SO LIKE JACE! The way he talks, moves, laughs... Jamie is perfect!
Yes Lu, Jonathan Rhys Meyers is portraying the role of Valentine! When i found out, i thought OMG! Brilliant casting! And Robert Sheehan as Simon is really perfect! He is exactly the way I imagined Simon to be! I saw Robert Sheehan in "Seasons of the Witch" with Nicolas Cage. And He was amazing in that movie! I just know he'll be great as Simon. I've always loved Lena, she's stunning as Queen Circe in "Game of THrones". Like you, I AM SOOOO EXCITED ABOUT THIS MOVIE ! ! ! ! !
His voice pitch, is like...spot on how I pictured Jace's. I mean, of course I never really thought of Jace as British, but still. I love it. I think he's going to be a great Jace, no matter what everyone else thinks.
to people saying Jace shouldnt have a British accent: Idris is actually located in Europe between Germany and France, Jace spent the first 10 years of his life there so he is bound to have some kind of European accent whereas Alec and Isabelle grew up in New York so theirs are American.
At first I wasn't happy, I will admit, but after watching this interview I really like him. He's definitely charming and his accent is to die for so he's won my heart. I also think he will look really great done up as Jace.
okay, i've been wrong about this guy. i saw a picture and thought 'not the right guy to play jace wayland'. but as soon as i checked out this video, i fell in love. god, he's adorable. i'm definitely willing to give him a chance to make the mortal instruments movies amazing :D
everybody's saying they wanted jace to be alex pettyfer, but u know, jamie is much more suited for the role. i think he's the perfect jace ever and alex wouldnt be as great. Yes, alex has the looks for it, but jamie is better in so many ways. and alex pettyfer already's in lots of movies and we need a new face so we can look at him and think OMG THATS JACE! not the guy from im number four or any other movie he made. thats why jamie is perfect for the role and they couldnt ever find anyone better
Totally! I think that the actors were really well chosen. :D Especially Lily and Jamie! :D Tell me about it! Even thinking about the movie gets me hyped up ;P
Indeed! I never thought about the actor who would play Valentine brilliantly. I just thought that it had to be an extremely interesting man, who could make you hate him and understand his point at the same time. Jonathan Rhys-Meyes is perfect! I watched Robert in that movie too and I loved it. But at first I didn't remember his face. Only after a while did I remember that he is Kay from Season Of The Witch. Awesome! :D I've loved Lena Headey since Terminator. Loved it! +.+ I am so excited! :D
Well seeing as how they're trying to cast all the Shadowhunters as British, probably not. Cassie Clare herself has said that it would make sense for them to have at least a bit of a European accent because Idris is in Europe and most of them at least spent some time of their lives in Idris.
So we've got a French Izzy and a British Alec. If you think about it though, their parents probably have the accent, so they might have picked up on it too. Who really knows? But either way, Cassandra said in a different post that the casting directors are asking specifically for British accents for almost all of the Shadowhunters...
i thought that THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS was an American series so why are all the actors British? i mean i prefer british as i am from there but im just curious :P
Come on. You never watched Sweeney Todd? It wasn't a lead role but everyone's been expecting big things for him since that movie, including myself. I'm happy he got casted to play Jace.
Now, please explain me why did you think, at first, that Alex would be a good choice? I'm not trying to be mean, I am really curious. Because I don't really see nothing Jace about Alex.
at forst I was disappointed when I hears alex pettyfer wasn't going to be jace, but jamie is adorable and charming and he really seems like an amazing person. also, he really made a big effort for the city of bones audition. I'm really happy for him, I think he's góing to be amazing!
For me, he is going to be the perfect Jace! I don't see why everyones complaining about him..? He definitely good looking enough, and he's got the acting ability. I can see why people wanted Alex Pettyfer, but I think Jamie will be a great Jace.
oh my god , this guy is jace , its as simple as that. he's funny and sarcastic but then hes super cute and lovable , i think i am gonna scream the secound i see him as Jace , awwwww love this dude sooooooo much :)
haha! i saw him at the twilight prem. a few days ago, i was screaming so much for him when he signed his autograph that he joked to me "breath...breath" lol
you can tell he's really passionate about what he does. and he seems so nice! He needs to be casted into alot more stuff, because he's a amazing actor
HES SO CUTEEE OMGGG WHO IS WATCHING THIS IN 2022
It's a shame we didn't get a second season of Camelot.
seems to me that british boys just keep talking and talking and thats perectly fine because 1. their accents are amazing, 2. we don't want to hear the interviewers voice as much.
He was awesome at playing Arthur. I'm upset they didnt continue the show. Hes such a hottie.
when he said darling i melted
same
Cant wait for August 2013! It's gonna be phenomenal, i can feel it. I just read an interview of Cassandra Clare (author of City of Bones).

So exciting!
he is such an amazing actor and as a great smile and voice :D
I really don't understand why people say Jamie is not fit to play Jace; Jace has been described as tall and lean, leonine with an interesting face of wide-set eyes and high cheekbones. Everything about Jamie physically is Jace, as well as his personality.
He is finer than wine
Jamie is absolutely the perfect Jace in my opinion. I've already watched a few interviews before watching the movie with a friend a couple days ago. and now that I have seen The Mortal Instruments, the right choice was made. 100% and this interview made me laugh so hard, I'm still laughing.
Jamie Campbell Bower is just Perfect ❤️❤️
Jamie is going to be the most awesome, amazing Jace. He's beautiful, talented, funny and sweet.
i have hunted every interview clip I can find of Jamie Campbell Bower, and my goodness, his personality just shines! Every sarcastic quip he makes, every move with grace... HE IS JACE COME TO LIFE. there's an aura about him that isn't there in Alex. Alex is handsome and to die for and I love him, but Alex is not Jace Wayland. JAMIE IS JACE WAYLAND. Lu.... did you see the whole cast? It's absolutely perfect!

I'm crying i read the books in 2011 and obsessed over them before I even knew it would be a movie and Jamie is exactly who I pictured I can't wait omg
I'm gonna be honest i only clicked on this cuz his hair and he looked so dam awesome
Right in the beginning, that was the countdown for me to completely fall in ñove with Jamie, he is such a cute little muffin 😍😍😍
he's sweet!!
"Ugh, you messed up! Oh no, what are we going to do?" Haha :'D
he's naturally got jace's sarcasm i love it.
"He just wants a family"
*wipes away imaginary tear*
I laughed a lot at that bit. He seems really genuine, actually knows what he's talking about and I agree, initially I was disappointed, but, yep, I'm quite looking forward to it now. Roll on August 2013!
How can anybody not like Jamie? He's hilarious, and I really believe he will play a great Jace!
He's really nice to listen to. Pretty articulate and also funny.
I swear if I ever met I'd cry and ask to hug him and touch his hair! I'd be so star struck o_O
Not just 12-18 I'm 27 and you are the reason I watched.
Could he be any more lovely? I could feel the interviewer geeking out and he made her so comfortable..he's so funny and down to earth! I love him as Jace.
Now seriously: this is Jace!! God his vice, his accent, his facial expression, his hair! This is just the Jace I pictured while reading the books
Shit, the more interviews I watch with him in, the more I realise what a epic Jace he is. His facial expression, his humour, his everything
I've watched this interview too many times and I regret nothing.
"I'M FROM SCOTLAND DARLING!" haha, love jamie
I adore the way he says "thank you". Kind of shy and sweet. So cute I want to... well, I want to hug him :D
d'aww He's holidaying at Indonesia because of BONNIE'S WORK. This boy never takes a break. Then Bonnie's mum's family is Australian. D'aww he's so supportive.
Yeah! Jamie is Jace, the perfect actor. He's amazing, really amazing!♥
Did I just make a rhyme? Lol, he is so sweet, gorgeous and genuine! Love you Jamie!
Actually, Isabelle and Alec were both just cast lol. The girl who's to play Isabelle is Jemima West, and is French, so I'm not sure how that's going to work out.

He’s British, and …I’ll tell you who he is in the next post". But then the next post was her saying that she wasn't allowed to tell us yet.
i'm just so in love with him, I'm so glad he got to be Jace, 'cause he's just perfect. He is Jace,
He gives good eye contact, not much people can do that!
I had no idea who they'd cast as Jace, and now i know, i can't imagine anyone else doing a better job. He IS Jace...and i love that he's British :) he actually makes me glad to be a brit
He's gorgeous! And his personality is equally awesome.
The only reason why I'm watching Camelot it's because Jamie plays Arthur. And I'm enjoying it quite a lot, to be honest. JAMIE IS THE PERFECT JACE.
Hi Lu...well, when I saw Alex Pettyfer in the movie Beastly, he had these rune-like marks on him that reminded me of Jace Wayland, & since then I have envisioned Jace as Alex Pettyfer, & his face always pops into my head everytime i read the books.

I love his smile
hehehe... i hope there will be a WORLD PREMIERE for City of Bones, so you and I can hit the theaters on the same day!
His voice pitch, is like...spot on how I pictured Jace's. I mean, of course I never really thought of Jace as British, but still. I love it. I think he's going to be a great Jace, no matter what everyone else thinks.
He is sooo Jace!! I love Jamie!
After seeing him in sweeney todd and camelot, i have loved him and im so happy hes going to be Jace, he fits it so perfectly!
He seems really genuinely nice
to people saying Jace shouldnt have a British accent: Idris is actually located in Europe between Germany and France, Jace spent the first 10 years of his life there so he is bound to have some kind of European accent whereas Alec and Isabelle grew up in New York so theirs are American.
my friend accidently said jamie bambell cower when we were in Berlin 3 years ago! ive loved him ever since i first saw Sweeney Todd
I love him ever since i saw him on Sweeney Todd and now he's JACE!!
he's perfect for that role ^_^
At first I wasn't happy, I will admit, but after watching this interview I really like him. He's definitely charming and his accent is to die for so he's won my heart. I also think he will look really great done up as Jace.
I haven't even seen him as Jace yet, but i am already deeply and truly in love with this boy.
He's so cute! I like his accent also, The perfect Jace that probably auditioned!!!!!!!!!
He's growing on me! I started searching all about him because I heard he was playing Jace.. :D
"I'm from Scotland darling. The Celtic blood is in me!"
okay, i've been wrong about this guy. i saw a picture and thought 'not the right guy to play jace wayland'. but as soon as i checked out this video, i fell in love. god, he's adorable. i'm definitely willing to give him a chance to make the mortal instruments movies amazing :D
Oh my. I just love him. Wonderful.
don't know why but I just can't get over how he says "wonderful" at 10:26 straight to my heart. *-*
WOW...He is Perfect for JACE
i love his smile...its so...genuine!!!
everybody's saying they wanted jace to be alex pettyfer, but u know, jamie is much more suited for the role. i think he's the perfect jace ever and alex wouldnt be as great. Yes, alex has the looks for it, but jamie is better in so many ways. and alex pettyfer already's in lots of movies and we need a new face so we can look at him and think OMG THATS JACE! not the guy from im number four or any other movie he made. thats why jamie is perfect for the role and they couldnt ever find anyone better
Wow why did I ever have doubt about him play jace, he is perfect I hope it just comes out in the movie as it does in this interview :)
I SO wish Camelot had gone on to a second season. It was a really fun show.
AHHH! Im from scotland and when he did the scottish accent i just about died!
Totally! I think that the actors were really well chosen. :D Especially Lily and Jamie! :D
Tell me about it! Even thinking about the movie gets me hyped up ;P
Indeed! I never thought about the actor who would play Valentine brilliantly. I just thought that it had to be an extremely interesting man, who could make you hate him and understand his point at the same time.
Jonathan Rhys-Meyes is perfect!
I watched Robert in that movie too and I loved it. But at first I didn't remember his face. Only after a while did I remember that he is Kay from Season Of The Witch. Awesome! :D
I've loved Lena Headey since Terminator. Loved it! +.+
I am so excited! :D
i'm from scotland darling... i laughed so much in that scene, actually i'm still laughing
jamieisjace u.u
come again to Indonesia Jamie!!
could someone please write what does he say after:" I'm from Scotland, darling..." and before "a Keltic blood is in me"?
he is just perfect...
i can t believe how sweet he is!!
I don't understand all the hate for Jamie. He IS Jace just like how Jennifer Lawrence IS Katniss. They embody the character.
Well seeing as how they're trying to cast all the Shadowhunters as British, probably not. Cassie Clare herself has said that it would make sense for them to have at least a bit of a European accent because Idris is in Europe and most of them at least spent some time of their lives in Idris.

But either way, Cassandra said in a different post that the casting directors are asking specifically for British accents for almost all of the Shadowhunters...
how could you get his name wrong though omg YOU HAD ONE JOB INTERVIEWER
i thought that THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS was an American series so why are all the actors British? i mean i prefer british as i am from there but im just curious :P
Come on. You never watched Sweeney Todd? It wasn't a lead role but everyone's been expecting big things for him since that movie, including myself. I'm happy he got casted to play Jace.
I want to watch Camelot but I'm not sure I could deal with it now that Merlin's ended :/
His Smile, His Laugh, His Accent, I Just ASDFGHJKL
Anyone ever find out what she was going to do?
I really like his jacket. It's great.
Just watch his face expressions! It is too funny XD
Now, please explain me why did you think, at first, that Alex would be a good choice? I'm not trying to be mean, I am really curious. Because I don't really see nothing Jace about Alex.
He has such a nice accent, love it!
at forst I was disappointed when I hears alex pettyfer wasn't going to be jace, but jamie is adorable and charming and he really seems like an amazing person. also, he really made a big effort for the city of bones audition. I'm really happy for him, I think he's góing to be amazing!
He IS Jace, in my opinion. He's exactly the way I pictured the character while reading.
nooo never seen it.... but isn't he in like that camolot show or whatever..... but i really wanted alex pettyfer to play jace:P
For me, he is going to be the perfect Jace!
I don't see why everyones complaining about him..? He definitely good looking enough, and he's got the acting ability.
I can see why people wanted Alex Pettyfer, but I think Jamie will be a great Jace.
oh my god , this guy is jace , its as simple as that. he's funny and sarcastic but then hes super cute and lovable , i think i am gonna scream the secound i see him as Jace , awwwww love this dude sooooooo much :)
He would make a good vampire Lestat .
you know, i never thought he would be a good Jace, but he's growing on me. :)
He'll be perfect Jace ! I love him *.*
''Im from scotland darling ! the celtic blood is in me! ''
haha! i saw him at the twilight prem. a few days ago, i was screaming so much for him when he signed his autograph that he joked to me "breath...breath" lol
In my opinion it's crazy how perfect I think he is for jace
He is Jace. I'm so excited for City of Bones.
he's on fire... And I think if I touch him,I will start to burn! Hell yeah! I'm such a naughty.... hahahahaha xd Love him...
I love him!! He is so adorable..
