Casting News: Finnick

And we have our beloved Finnick. Sam Claflin has been officially cast as our favorite victor ever.

 

And for all those people that are complaining that he would be a horrible Finnick, are you blind? 

Casting News: Raphael

And we have a Raphael. The German newspaper, Bild, confirmed that Elyas M'Barek will be playing the vampire.

Welcome to the team, Elyas!

*UPDATE*

Raphael will not be in City of Bones. Instead, the role is the Vampire Lieutenant because of not having the space to properly introduce Raphael. Oh well. Guess we'll have to wait and see him in City of Ashes, which fans were told, was being adapted into a script! :D

Casting News: VALENTINE

So this is what happens when I do normal stuff, like sleep. Valentine is cast. *Sigh* Why do I need to sleep?

Can we just all agree that this guy is perfect? The casting on this movie just blows my mind because it is really AMAZING.

Jonathan Rhys Meyer will be playing my favorite evil villian/daddy. Why did Valentine have to die in the end? I have a feeling if and when CITY OF GLASS is made into a movie, I will surely cry, especially if this guy is Valentine.  There's something to look forward to.

Does anybody else find that his name downright hilarious? I mean, the actor playing Valentine is named Jonathan. Hehe. I'm thinking of Jace and Sebastian here!

Now we just need Alaric and Raphael :)

Casting News: Brother Jeremiah

So Brother Jeremiah has been cast! Now we are only waiting for Alaric, Valentine, and Raphael. Ugh! Why can't this movie come out so much sooner? Or that I own the Tardis? I must see this movie NOW!

Official Website that has updated cast for movie:

http://www.themortalinstrumentsmovie.com/

Stephen R. Hart as Brother Jeremiah

Frankly, The Silent Brothers creep the living crap out of me! The only one I can handle is probably Brother Zachariah, but that's only because Magnus and I have a theory on him that makes him less creepy than the others. I cannot wait to see how they are portrayed in the movie. This movie is going to be AMAZING!

 

Casting New: ALEC!!

Alec has finally been cast! And I am flipping out right now if you couldn't tell...

So Kevin Zegers is going to be playing my blue eyed baby. And he looks AMAZING! Apparently, the first Alec's scheduling couldn't be fixed...So he was next in line. He is just *sniffle* perfect!

And the official movie website is up!

AAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!! The wait is killing me!!



Casting News: Luke and Dorothea

So Luke and Madame Dorothea have been cast. Now I'm just impaiently waiting for Alec. He's the only one I'm really excited for (Other than Magnus...They are my favorite couple in the books!)

Aiden Turner as Luke. This isn't how I pictured him in my mind...But if we give him some glasses and a nice, red flannel shirt, I think he can pull it off!

CCH Pounder as Madame Dorothea. I like her. She has that mysterious I-know-your-future type of look to her that I associate with Dorothea.

Getting more and more excited for the movie now!

Casting News: JOHANNA MASON

So Johanna Mason from The Hunger Games Trilogy has finally been cast. I feel bad for not following this one as much as City of Bones, but then again, I'm not uber excited for this one as much as the other. Catching Fire was probably my favorite book out of the whole trilogy. It certainly was the one I read the quickest.

Jena Malone will be playing Johanna. Her name sounds so familiar, but I can't recall where I have heard of her before. She seems like she's a good fit for Johanna. I honestly haven't read the books in over a year, but I have confidence that she will be amazing.

I cannot wait to see Catching Fire. I know it's going to be as good as The Hunger Games was. I'm excited to see Finnick. He was my favorite character throughout the whole trilogy. Then he died and left my heart shattered.

Casting News: SEA OF MONSTERS UPDATE

So I haven't been following the casting news for THE SEA OF MONSTERS as much as I have with CITY OF BONES because the first movie is already out. I know a lot of people hated THE LIGHTNING THIEF, but I loved it. You can't go into the movie thinking you are going to see an exact copy of the book. I was totally okay with the changes that was made to the movie and looked past them all. I like Alexandra Daddario as Annabeth. Brandon T. Jackson as Grover was downright hilarious. That guy is great! And I love Logan Lerman as an actor. Period. So when I found out he was Percy, I accepted it through and through. The movie is coming out in March and I am REALLY EXCITED!

So Cast Update? I'm trying to get photos from them on set. (And thanks to imdb for keeping it updated!) **Indicates ON SET PHOTOS

Nathan Fillion as Hermes.

Rumored that Mark Hamill as Tantalus

Stanley Tucci as Dionysus (Caesar Flickerman from THE HUNGER GAMES!!)**

Missi Pyle, Mary Birdsong, Yvette Nicole Brown (Helen from DRAKE AND JOSH!!)  as the Grey Sisters

Apparently Pierce Brosnan has been replaced as Chiron. Anthony Head is the new one. I can't picture it. He will always be Buffy's watcher in my mind!

Robert Maillet as Polyphemus/Laistrygonian (Canadians. Like the reference to the book? haha.) He's also in CITY OF BONES. AWESOME!!!!

Zoe Aggeliki as Silena Beauregard. Didn't realize that she was in SEA OF MONSTERS. But hey, not complaining. At least she's there!

Leven Rambin (Glimmer, THE HUNGER GAMES) as Clarisse La Rue. GUESS WHAT GUYS?? She's in the movie. And calm down. She dyed her hair!**

Douglas Smith as Tyson. And quick question: Why does he have 2 eyes?? Hahahaha. Was that lame or what??**

Grey Damon as Chris Rodriguez (SECRET CIRCLE, NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING)**

Paloma Kwiatkowski as Thalia Grace. Apparently, she nailed her first time audition and I can see Thalia in her. And that is one heck of a last name!

Derek Mears as Cyclopes? Okay. Sure. Why not. Looks scary.

Daniel Cudmore as Manicore? Is the manicore even in SEA OF MONSTERS?? Okay. I'm totally okay with this. Calm down. Apparently, he's also in BREAKING DAWN?

Alisha Newton as Young Annabeth. Guess there is going to be a flashback!! YAY YAY YAY!! And how adorable is this kid?

Aleks Paunovic as another Cyclopes. Didn't realize there was so many cyclopes in the story other than Tyson. But, open mind, Caly, OPEN MIND!

Christopher Redman as Reardon. Who the heck is Reardon? My Ultimate Guide has no such name in it!

Katelyn Mager as Young Thalia. Another adorable kid. Even though, I think the actresses should switch. She looks more like an Annabeth, and the other a Thalia. But that is just a thought!

Sara Kenley as Selina. Wait a second...I'm confuse now. Imdb, something is wrong here. It's SILENA. Not SELINA. Unless there is 2 in the movie? Huh?

Bjorn Yearwood as Young Grover. He looks so much like Brandon T. Jackson in this picture. It is so creepy. I have a feeling this flashback is a way to make up to the fans that they started with older actors/actresses in the first place...Or is it just me?

Samuel Braun as Young Luke. OMG! He is sooo cute!

And some other actors for the roles that you can look up on Imdb yourself because I feel like they aren't really major:

Ichneutae (What/Who is that? Again, my Ultimate Guide fails me)

Ganymede (Shouldn't he be in the 4th one?)

Barista (Again, who/what is that??)

Customer (I should have tried out for this role!)

Lydian Drakon (Shouldn't this appear later?)

Camping Girl (I would have been perfect for this role)

Tereus (I need to get an actual Greek Mythology textbook now...)

Another Barista (Am I missing something obvious here? Never heard of that before)

An Uncredited Half Blood Demigod Teen (Sorry for being uncredited. I will credit you and cheer when you appear in the movie!)

*UPDATE*

Now I feel really stupid at the fact I never realized that a barista is like a coffee server person. To think I call myself a senior in high school and never heard of that term before!

*END UPDATE*
And soooooo...Here are some pics of Logan Lerman, Alexandra Daddario, and Brandon T. Jackson from the set. Now I'm really excited for the movie!!

YOU CAN RELAX NOW. HER HAIR IS LIGHTER. Gods, why does hair color matter people??

Oooohhh. The gang with Clarisse. Glad she made it into the movie!

Uh oh. What's going on?

I love this guy as Tyson!

I'm so glad they lighten her hair. If I had to hear anybody else complain about her after this movie, I would seriously scream.

Oooohhhh. Really excited now!

 LOGAN! Fangirling right now!

Grover in trouble still? Uh oh. Is that Chris? IT IS! Oh my gods. Who is the other guy?


Okay. Now I am uber excited for this movie! March is going to be an AMAZING month. And people, it sounds like it's going to semi follow the book more than the first one did. So don't be stuborn and refuse to see it. That's stupid. Go see the movie and don't critic it so harshly.

Casting News: SIMON LEWIS

Casting news for CITY OF BONES (SO EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE!!)

Robert Sheehan from, Misfits, has been casted as Simon. Haven't seen it but now I must because he's in it.

Of course he looks nothing like the Simon I pictured but I am going into the movie with an open mind. Apparently he has great chemistry with Jamie (JACE), and Lily (CLARY) and as long as he can act like the Simon Lewis I know and love, I am totally okay with him being Simon.

So far, only Jace, Clary, Isabelle, Simon, Pangborn, Blackwell, and Alec (Even though we do not know the actor due to scheduling conflicts).

Jamie Campbell Bower as JACE WAYLAND

Lily Collins as CLARY FRAY

Jemima West as ISABELLE LIGHTWOOD

Robert Maillet as BLACKWELL (One of Valentine's hunch men.)

Kevin Durand as PANGBORN (Basically like the salt to Blackwell's pepper. If that makes sense to anyone...)

And lastly, somebody we don't know yet because of scheduling conflicts as ALEC LIGHTWOOD. I really want to know who's playing Alec and Magnus. They are my favorite couple in the series. The wait is killing me.

So there you go! Lastest cast update for CITY OF BONES. Dying for this movie to come out and it hasn't even begun filming. I need a new obsession.

Movie News: CITY OF BONES

So today they released the official movie logo for City of Bones and I am basically freaking out right now. Want to watch this movie SO SO SO badly.

I love how Angelic Power is the "o". SO EXCITED!!!

Movie News

So I'm not sure about anybody else, but I am dying to see City of Bones become a movie. It's probably my all time favorite book ever and I know Magnus just adores them too!

Today on Cassandra Clare's Tumblr, she released the movie date set for August 23, 2013. A whole year, but at least I know what I'm doing that day ;)

Filming for the movie starts in Mid-August in Toronto and New York. All I am saying is "Road Trip Anyone?"
