My Bliss released some Mortal Instruments: City of Bones stills. We've seen the movie stills before, but they have a new photo that looks like a photo shoot with Jace, Clary, and Simon.

An edited version of this photo seems to appear on Hot Topic's Mortal Instruments merchandise quiet a bit:

Aside from The Mortal Instruments photo shoots, I think this has to be one of my favourites. Look at part of The Mortal Instruments cast looking all sophisticated! This photoshoot is from Live UK Magazine.

Do you especially love the Jamily (Jamie Campbell Bower and Lily Collins) photos?

 

Or perhaps like Cassandra Clare, you like the one's with Robert Sheehan?

Jamily on Refinery 29's List of '10 On-Screen Celebrity Couples Who Make It Better IRL'

Who doesn't love the couple: Jamie Campbell Bower and Lily Collins? They are too cute together! That's why Refinery 29 has named them one of the 10 on-Screen Celebrity Couples Who Make it Better In Real Life. Here's what Refinery 29 had to say about Jamily:

Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower, City of Bones
Though City Of Bones isn't quite out, book series already has a cult-like following, is chocked-full of tons of brooding, and has a leading couple who is the real deal. Sounds familiar? Unlike another supernatural teen movie, this couple simply can't contain their enthusiasm when they see each other, which makes us even more excited for the film.

Tribute Talks to Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower About 'The Mortal Instruments: CITY OF BONES'

On Tribute's June 2013 issue, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is featured in the magazine. In Lily Collins' interview, she talks about what was it like having Jonathan Rhys Meyers playing her dad:

Jonathan is so talented, it ups your game. You know he intesified all of us and brought new things out of us, especially for Clary's character. He would improv a line when I wasn't expecting it, to scare me. It did scare me but then between takes he's like, "Are you okay? Let's work through this, let me fix your hair." He's a lovely man and he's the perfect choice for Valentine.

 In Jamie Campbell Bower's interview, he talked about the chemistry between the actors:

People can see it. I think it was one of the big reasons that I was put in this role, because at the time I went for the screen test, physically I wasn't the image of who the character is. I think the saw a connection between us and they were like, "That's it! They are the characters."

Jamie's interview for GQ Magazine:

So, have you met Phil Collins?
“Er,” says Jamie Campbell Bower, his sloth-like limbs coiling around his chair out of discomfort, streaks of blond hair pulled this way and that.
Go on, I coax. You can tell GQ. After all, the 24-year-old is now dating his daughter, Lily Collins, who is also his co-star in forthcoming teen blockbuster The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones, which is how they met.
So, have you? “No … no … ” he squirms, not answering the question so much as rejecting the question’s premise. ‘This is not about that!”

Lily Collins's Vogue Diary 'Getting Ready for the Met Gala'

Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower attended the Met Gala 2013 together. We got amazing Jamily (Jamie and Lily) pictures. They looked amazing in the Shadowhunter colour -black. Vogue has some behind the scene/pre-party pictures:

Taking in the view from her hotel room window. “I’m a huge people watcher,” says Collins. “And the hotel has these great floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the street, so that is where I waited while everyone was setting up.”

Godfrey Gao, Jamie Campbell Bower, Robert Sheehan, and Aidan Turner in VH1's '20 Hot Guys You Need to Know In 2013'

Check it out, we have 4 of VH1's 20 Hot Guys You Need to Know in 2013!

Jamie Campbell Bower

2013 Projects To Watch: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (Aug 26)

Why Is He Hot This Year?: If Gao is on the verge of breaking out because of a juicy bit part in a popular YA film adaptation, the film's lead should also brace himself for success.

Things To Know About Him: Campbell Bower isn't a stranger to the fantasy genre. He was a Volturi in The Twilight Saga and Grindelwald, aka Dumbledore's crush/lover/enemy in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Oh, and he used to date Ginny Weasley.

Godfrey Gao

2013 Projects To Watch: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (Aug 26)

Why Is He Hot This Year?: Gao is a smoking hot Taiwanese model and actor who is crossing over to Western films in a big way with one of the more juicy roles in a film filled with eye candy, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. Also, he has a vocal online fan community.
Things To Know About Him: He was born in Taiwan, but moved to Canada at the age of 9, but then moved back to Taiwan to model and act in a plethora of teen dramas.

Robert Sheehan

2013 Projects To Watch: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (Aug 26)

Why Is He Hot This Year?: Sheehan is the third up-and-comer who could break out on The Mortal Instruments series alone. However, unlike Gao and Campbell Bower, he hasn't forged his path playing pretty boys, but character acting his way through cheeky anti-heroes and historical characters.

Things To Know About Him: Sheehan started acting professionally in his late teens in his native Ireland, grew in popularity and acclaim and jumped to the UK market with film roles and an electrifying performance in Misfits. He's appeared in a number of US films in supporting roles, but is poised for a crossover to Hollywood. Oh, and he apparently likes wine. That's good.

Aidan Turner

2013 Projects To Watch: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones (Aug 26) & The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Dec 13)

Why Is He Hot This Year?: Turner is probably the most visible dwarf in The Hobbit being that he's the youngest, (arguably) the hottest, and the one least covered in make-up and his character is one of the more "human" ones in the trilogy. On the flip side, he'll be the mature elder of the pack in The Mortal Instruments, so he's got two places to be seen in different ways by fantasy audiences.
Things To Know About Him: He recently cut his hair, which would be sad, but it still looks really, really, really good.

Here's what Cassie had to say about this news:

I remember Harald interviewing Aidan for the first time and being like, all your hair, where did it go? And Aidan being like… “it was a wig?”

Collection of All the MTV Interviews from WonderCon 2013

A collection of all the MTV interviews of Lily Collins, Kevin Zegers, and Jamie Campbell Bower from WonderCon 2013. (Videos only available to the US *sorry!* -blame MTV.com)

'Mortal Instruments' Actress Lily Collins Didn't Want Clary To Be 'A Constant Victim'

"I actually saw a lot of similarities between Clary and I," Lily said. "She's a go-getter. She's feisty. She fights for what she believes in, and I really associate a lot of her qualities with mine, but I also wanted to bring this realness to her, like she was just the girl next door, because I didn't want her to be this caricature of a fan-favorite heroine in a book. I wanted her to be someone you could be friends with next door."
Not an easy task, considering Clary is actually a descendant of a long line of demon-destroying Nephilim known as Shadowhunters. (I don't know about you, but the only super-human ability my childhood neighbor had was flying across the Slip 'n Slide really fast.) So how did Lily accomplish this feat?


"[By] incorporating a bit more humor into some of the situations with [Clary] and the boys—just not making her a constant victim," she explained. "Because I think when you're going through so many whats and whys in the span of every five minutes, those reactions could become really similar, and it becomes more of this, 'Oh, poor me. I'm in this situation.' When she's really like, 'Another problem? Solved! Another problem? Let's go!' So it's that really tenacious attitude I tried to incorporate more."

'Mortal Instruments' Star Jamie Campbell Bower: The Next Gandalf?

"I will be playing a young Gandalf, indeed," Jamie joked of the "Lord of the Rings" character. "That's my next job. You can't tell, but I'm in the process of growing out a very extensive beard."
In all seriousness, though, Jamie confirmed that he is a fan of the genre and that perhaps his casting in all these magical projects isn't simply a coincidence.


"What I love about the whole notion of sci-fi and fantasy is that it's a comletely different world, but underneath everything, there's a sort of reality that grounds it," he explained. "And people love to be taken out of their daily lives. I don't want to use the word 'mundane,' but that sort of drudgery, sometimes. Sci-fi and fantasy offer that. It offers that of the person watching it and for me, which I love."

'Mortal Instruments' Stunt Training Was 'Brutal' According To Kevin Zegers

"I think I showed up about four weeks before we started, and it went through filming, so then on lunch break we would go and rehearse the fight sequences," he said of the rigorous preparation. "[Director] Harald [Zwart] wanted us to do our own stuff, which I think when you watch the movie you can tell. It's sort of great, and you can see that it's us, and it's violence and just as, like, a guy, I saw the new trailer and it looks awesome. It looks like a big action movie, also obviously, the love story and everything are going on and the fantasy stuff. The action stuff looks awesome."


But, embodying a physically superior Shadowhunter came with a price for the 28-year-old.
"Brutal," he said with a laugh of the regimen. "I'm like the old one of the group. The young twenties kids were very spry and bounced back. When we finished I was very tired."
