Okay so I’ve been wanting to create a fancast centering around this series for a long time because these books are everything to me and so are the characters. I hope you enjoy it and please remember that everyone has different opinions :) Stay tuned for more fancasts to come!
Clary Fray (Lily Collins)
Lily is and always will be my Clary. She’s fierce, strong, effortlessly beautiful, and she is an incredible actress. We saw how well she portrayed Clary in the movie and there’s no doubt in my mind that she would’ve handled the rest of the series just as well
Jace Herondale (Alex Pettyfer)
JUST. LOOK. AT. THIS. BOY. Alex is Jace. He is everything I associate with Jace. He has those gorgeous blonde curls. He has that “I’m better than you” arrogance about him. He’s able to play the serious character but also the funny, sarcastic character. If he would’ve accepted the role as Jace in the movie, I honestly believe that City of Ashes would’ve happened.
Simon Lewis (Nat Wolff)
Simon was probably the first fancast I figured out. As soon as I opened City of Bones, Nat’s face immediately popped into my head as Simon. Funny, sarcastic, nerd hot. Don’t @ me
Isabelle Lightwood (Phoebe Tonkin)
Isabelle was a tough one for me to figure out. Think about it, Izzy is basically a goddess. But after I watched Vampire Diaries, I realized that if anyone could bring Izzy to life on the screen it would be Phoebe. Gorgeous, badass, she’d slice your arm off w that whip and look flawless doing it.
Alec Lightwood (Matthew Daddario)
Matt has the look of Alec, there is no doubt about it. And with more practice, I’m sure he could get the acting down too.
Magnus Bane (Godfrey Gao)
Harry Shum Jr does a great job as everyone’s fave warlock but Godfrey has my heart. He is my Magnus, I don’t know what more to say.
“Simon rolled his eyes. “It’s a good thing we know the guy dating Magnus Bane,” he said. “Otherwise, I get the feeling we’d all just lie around all the time wondering what the hell to do next. Or trying to raise the money to hire him by selling lemonade or something.”
Alec looked merely irritated by this comment. “The only way you could raise enough money to hire Magnus by selling lemonade would be if you put meth in it.”
— Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls (via bookquotes467)
imagine Alec carrying around a spray bottle full of water and spraying Sebastian in the face every time he says or does anything bad.
“with the blood of Lilith I can create a whole army of dark Shadowhunters” *squirt* *squirt*”urg, god, what the hell?” “I’ma stop you right there, Sebastian”
