Everytime I listen to him talking about the mortal instruments I fell in love even more. He is such an amazing actor and he’s going to be an incredible Jace. I really don’t imagine anyone but him to play the role and it’s kind of curious because the reason I read all the series was because last year I saw the first trailer of city of bones and I saw him and thought “wow, he looks sooooo awesome” and once I finished reading the five books I knew Jamie was the perfect Jace. Can’t wait for the film. By the way, thanks TMI source for this!!! thank u very much for posting the videos 😉 you’re always so great!

OMG I could listen to Jamie talk for forever. He is such a “real” person and so down to earth. Jace was my favorite character and as soon as it was announced that there was a possibility that COB would be made into a movie – I wanted Jamie. He was the first actor that I could see in my mind as Jace. When he actually got the part, I was sooooo happy. I knew he would be perfect for the role. He not only looks like Jace, but he is such a gifted actor that he could portray Jace’s character flawlessly. This is going to be such an awesome movie and I can’t wait to see him on the big screen. Thank you Jamie for accepting this role. My favorite book and my favorite actor in my favorite movie!!! What more can anyone ask for???? This is 1 movie that I am going to see more than a few times! !!!! Love you Jamie ❤ ❤ ❤

I will make this short. He IS Jace. Wish that girl’s head wasn’t constantly in the way.

Jamie is so real!!!! I’m so glad they went for a method actor who loves deep in to the character and not some Hollywood a lister !!
He’s so lovely and gives people who ask him a question as best a response he can. I think he realises how much people love these books. He’s just so genuine !!!!

He is so amazing and his voice is just….. wow!! What I really love about him is that he really gets Jace and understands his complexities. But its true he and Jonathon really do look very similar which is weird as Jace is actually a Herondale but it will really add to story making the audience believe it and get the heartbreak until the reveal in the City of Glass
