Alex Pettyfer has reportedly been offered the role of 'Jace Wayland' in the up and coming , highly anticipated , 'City Of Bones ', movie, adapted from the book written by Cassandra Clare. Now he hasn't accepted and I am holding my squeeeeEEEeee in ( yes older people can squee too, nothing wrong with that in a non creepy , pervy way), he just fits the part soooooo well. We all know that, and that's what is important, people!!! Now I shall inwardly show my excitement until it is confirmed, which hopefully soon, I honestly can't take the wait any longer. These are my 3 picks for the 3 main leads. MY 3 PICKS not confirmed 3.
LILY COLLINS - CLARY
LOGAN LERMAN - SIMON

LATEST NEWS!!! CASSANDRA CLARE VIA HER LIVE JOURNAL , QUOTE:
"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 representatives are 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. Anyone for a game of Scrabble?"

The article goes as far to say that they will only green light the movie if Alex P. accepts! I hope this isn't the case. As much as I love Alex P., I would still want a movie even if he wasn't in it.
ReplyDeleteHi Aylee,
ReplyDeleteI saw that , I feel confident he will accept. I want the movie to go ahead, regardless , but I don't think he will say no. It wouldn't make sense not to bump his career with this movie/series of movies. Just being offered the role is what I needed to hear. He would be crazy to turn it down. If it's scheduling conflicts then I would happily wait a few extra months until he was available. I feel confident he will accept :D Being asked was the biggest question. He knows, his people know that fans want him and he looks the part, so it's just signing on the dotted line with timing, $$$, etc. This movie has been spoken about for awhile now, it's not something that has just popped up. Everybody has been talking about wanting him for the role. I still have fingers and toes crossed, but I can't see him saying no:D
Shouldn't be much longer now, finding out. I mean who else have they offered role to..???

p.s.
ReplyDeleteVulture ( click link showing and click on Vulture ) reported that TMI is " The books are basically Twilight with demons instead of vampires".
Um...Must admit...not at all comparable to 'Twilight', sorry bit of a daft comment that one. I tell my book buddy friends , if they like Harry Potter books, the creativity and detail, then they will like Cassandra Clare's writing and TMI series. I haven't had a failure yet. All friends have fallen in love with Jace . Love Clary being a strong female character and hope Simon finds himself a nice sheila.
I feel uber confident that Alex P will accept the role, and all will slot in nicely amongst everybodys schedules.
I love Twilight , books...the movies are getting better, but seriously dude..TMI is certainly no Twilight comparison. Kinda over hearing everything compared to Twilight. Come on people, we need a new line.
Have a great day everybody:D

I hope he does say yes! I think you're right: it comes down to the $$ deal. Also agree with the books not being like Twilight. Maybe they only thought that because Stephenie's quotes are on all of the books.
ReplyDeleteHi Aylee,
ReplyDeleteAnybody who has read the books knows that they aren't Twilight without the vampires?? as there are vampires in the TMI series...lol!! I don't think the dude at Vulture has read the books.
I only had a book blurb on City Of Glass on front cover from Stephenie Meyer .
Aylee , I am just uber excited he actually got offered the role. Somebody said they thought he was up for The Hunger Games movie??? I'm just uber pleased he may have been snagged for TMI...there's hopefully 6 movie deal there for him. Which means we get to see lots of handsome Jace for years to come...hee..hee.
Fimgers crossed we hear something soon. I just can't see anyone else really in my mind when I read the books other than Alex P. I think I have a fictional crush...lol!!!
Have a great day/night
Michelle
Aylee look up above I have added latest news I could find:D You may have seen it already?
ReplyDeleteThat's exciting, he definitely looks like the image I'd had in my head of Jace. :D
ReplyDeleteHi Alexi,
ReplyDeleteHopefully all gets agreed upon soon.
..Now Logan Lerman for Simon is my next mission...lol!!
