Jamie Campbell Bower talks future of ‘Mortal Instruments’ film franchise
Recently at the Curzon Home Cinema launch, Jamie Campbell Bower talked about the future of The Mortal Instruments film franchise with Digital Spy. Production on The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes is set to begin next year.
“With any film like that comes great trepidation, and you have to assess the market as it stands with big franchise films,” Bower told Digital Spy at the launch event for BT TV”s partnership with Curzon Home Cinema.
“We have seen a lot of [those films] flounder, and so if Constantin feel comfortable to move on to the next Mortal Instruments film, I’m happy for that.”
Jamie went on to discuss the importance of connecting with fans.
“Even from being a small part of something like Twilight, I found out that actually, what’s really important is having a connection with the fans.
“It’s great to be able to sit here and do press, but if I can go out there and I can do a mall tour – which is what we did for Mortal Instruments and for Twilight – that actually can make somebody’s day. And that’s sort of what I’m doing this for.”
We can’t wait to see Jamie portray Jace in City of Ashes!

I can’t wait to see Jamie, Lily, Robert, and the rest of the cast for City of Ashes!
I totally agree ^_^
Jamie, Lily, and Cassie didn’t make my day better- they made my life better. ❤ I hope to see them all in Philly again for City of Ashes! 🙂
I swear By the Angel if they delay the production anymore I will hunt then down! But I can’t wait to see the cast again! They were just to perfect!!
hahahahah I completely agree with you!!
I wanted to see Jace and Clary’s kiss scene in the Seelie Court.
I really want to see it too. That will be funny.
Thank you jaime for always being true to yourself and showing your never ending love for our fanbase oh and by the way you played an awesome caius but I really love u as jace. I feel like some people are still giving him a hard time for his portrayal which I think is kind of silly personally I’m very glad that he’s committed to play jace as this saga goes on god willingly and I’m very grateful for his dedication to it
Oh and as of right now I am reteading the book
Ok I know this is going to sound extremely off topic but then again it kind of has something to do with it. Anyway basically I found a poem that i came across one time and from the way the words sounded it very much reminded me of our situation with city of ashes, the words in the poem remind me of our fandom and the movie itself. Here it is;
Where I am Doesn’t Matter
Where I am right now doesn’t matter
Because I know I have a bright future
My circumstance is beneath me
Because I know where I will be
Words won’t discourage me
Obstacles won’t hinder me
Trials won’t sadden me
Tribulations won’t affect me
I know where I’m going and
What it takes to get there
So the rest of my journey is by faith
And crossing that bridge called risk
Where I am right now doesn’t matter
Because I know I’m on the path of becoming
(These are the words that represent our fandom and the film franchise no matter the risk I hope it helped)
By the Angel!This is the best news ever! I can’t wait to see Jamie and Lilly in Tmicoa!!!!
RELAX everyone if we keep pushing for production to start they will make a movie which isn’t as good as it is suppose to b and then only the fans will go see the movie and then it will end up like city of bones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
omg, so you’re saying city of bones wasnt cool? WHAT kind of shadowhunter are you?
Anyway the news just keep getting better and better cannot wait to see jamie, lily, robert,kevin, jemima – which is my favorite character (isabelle l)- and the rest of the cast!!! love you guys !!!!!
YOU HAVE NO IDEA how much I love that movie its just I had a hard time persuading everyone to watch it cos of all the bad reveiws
reviews turn people into slaves you are only a true movie goer if one follows their instincts and ignores the remarks
Quite true and I certainly think I am a true moviegoer
It’s sad that people read reviews to see which movie is good or bad. Not everyone has the same likes and dislikes.
Yeah youre right 😦 sorry i was just kind of nervous there wasnt going to be a sequel haha but there is
And he did make our day in the Miami Dolphin Mall tour.
Actually, he made our week by doing that.
