Jamie Campbell Bower has got “breakout star potential”

Jamie Campbell Bower has got “breakout star potential” according to Movies.com.

Bower, who plays Volturi vampire Caius in The Twilight Saga, has also had parts in Sweeney Todd and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, as well as the lead role of Arthur in Camelot.

And at the end of the year, Bower will tackle the role that will most likely land him on the map as Shadowhunter Jace Wayland in The Mortal Instruments.

Here’s a blurb from Movies.com in which they looked at potential breakout stars from The Twilight Saga.

Amanda Bell from Twilight Examiner had a hard time picking just one person. In the end she was able to narrow it to two actors. Bell felt that, “Jamie Campbell Bower and Xavier Samuel are the two who have real breakout potential thanks to The Twilight Saga. Bower had done Sweeney Todd and other work before, but he’s gotten some serious acceleration after doing New Moon (what with scoring a place in Harry Potter, then the lead in Camelot, and, of course, now with his part in The Mortal Instruments). Samuel, meanwhile, has gotten a lot of attention as well. Many fans are excited to see what he’ll do next. The fact that these two worked together on Roland Emmerich’s Anonymous is just icing on the cake. I look to see good things from both…”

Amanda isn’t the only person to tout Jamie Campbell-Bower’s qualities. Grace Melo, the owner of Foforks, the largest, Brazilian Twilight fan site echoed Bell’s thoughts citing the same movies and then added, “If all those things were not impressive enough he’s the lead singer for his band The Darling Buds. There’s a lot of amazing stuff going for him right now, professionally and also personally since he’s engaged to Bonnie Wright. He’s pretty young and very funny and sweet to his fans. So, we would give him the title for the next Twilight Breakout Star without a doubt.”

I think we Mortal Instruments fans can agree that Bower is the clear-cut choice and that taking on the role of Jace will, without a doubt, put him on the map.
