Hey everyone! It’s no secret that a lot of news has been floating around about Alex Pettyfer & his possible casting in the movie adaptation of the popular book series “The Mortal Instruments.” I happen to be a HUGE fan of the book series & it would actually be so cool if Alex does end up portraying Jace. However, nothing has been 100% confirmed yet, but it seems like Alex might have his foot in the door.
Author Cassandra Clare wrote on her official blog that Alex has already met with the director of the Mortal Instruments movie:
I wanted to wait till I could have an official chat with the studio folks before I said anything, so my small contribution is: I know Alex has met with the director, Scott Stewart, several times; I know he screened Scott’s movie, Priest, and loved it; I know he read the TMI books over the holidays and really liked them and liked Jace, and his agents are representing him in negotiating making a deal for the role of Jace. At this point it’s all about the deal, which really doesn’t have anything to do with me, so I stand back and wait for news like the rest of you.
In addition, there are a few articles that report that Alex has indeed been offered the role, and is set to star in the movie. You can read this article on NYMag’s Vulture about Alex being offered to star in another YA franchise. You can also read another similar & interesting article on MTV’s Hollywood Crush! In additon, you can read an article on ReelzChannel about Alex’s possible involvement in The Mortal Instruments!
I’m so excited, and hope that Alex actually does take the role. I personally think he’s awesome for Jace & he could really pull off the role! We here at ATB will be sure to keep you updated on the latest news about Alex & “The Mortal Instruments”!
