Interview from SciFiNow with Cassandra Clare 'How the Movie is Faithful to the Books'

SciFiNow interviews Cassandra Clare, they talk about how the City of Bones movie is very simular to the books. In this interview Cassie tells us she was very involved with the casting, set design, costumes, etc. Lastly, Cassie got to meet some Silent Brothers while on set

Do you think the film is true to the book?I feel like it stays pretty true to the spirit of the books. There are some things that have to be compressed and altered because otherwise it would be a 10 hour movie, which I would watch but no one else would. From what I’ve seen in terms of the casting, the costumes and the sets, it looks like they’re trying to stick as close to what was described in the book as possible.
What haven’t you seen yet that you are looking forward to?I really want to see what the demons look like, I haven’t done yet because that’s mostly special effects, but I also want to see Magnus’ party!
How involved were you?I was talking to one of the producers and I asked for the casting director’s phone number and he was like ‘Sure!’ and I thought ‘Gad, didn’t nobody give you the memo you’re not supposed to give me that? Fine, alright, I’ll take it!’ I called her and we talked for hours, we would talk every day for months and I had access to the servers and watched everyone’s auditions and we all got a vote on the casting. [Director] Harold [Zwart] ran by the set designs and costume, the more they consulted me the more confident I felt about the movie.
Do we meet the Silent Brothers in the film?We do get to see the Silent Brothers and it was really fun to be on set with them because they were completely covered in prosthetic make-up. They have their eyes and lips sewn shut, so there’s all these really tall guys on set with all the prosthetics on their faces and then we go to lunch and they can’t eat, so they had these tiny juice boxes in the corner of their mouths, so there’s this long line of terrifying looking dudes in robes all sucking little monster juice boxes. That was awesome (laughs).

Cassie just loves to kill tease us, check out the new art work from Cassandra Jean called Everyone Seems Too Happy.

City of Heavenly Fire: spoilery fanart
Otherwise known as Everyone Seems Too Happy…
Some CoHF spoilery art for you! With Clockwork Princess now out for a month, I’ve decided it’s time to start mixing up answers about Clockwork Princess and cut scenes with a few teasers for the last book in that other series. This teaser isn’t words, it’s art by Cassanda Jean. I won’t make any promises about what it means but I think, unlike the previous piece, and the other previous piece, and oh, that last piece … that you may well not like it. :D
It IS A SPOILER for an actual scene, so it’s under a cut.

Kevin Zegers on 'How LGBT Roles Have Changed on Screen'

While Cassie and Harald were at LA Times Book Festival, they let us know that there will be some Malec (Magnus and Alec) scenes in The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones movie.

Straight.com has a chat with Kevin Zegers (Alec Lightwood), they talk about Alec's sexuality and how that made the role more interesting to play.

"Mortal Instruments is a pretty big movie and the fact that the studio feels comfortable with one of their lead characters being gay is pretty indicative of peoples' opinion towards that sort of thing, which is that you don't really have to make a big deal out of it. It's just sort of is what it is. It's just one of the layers of the characters that I get to play."
In fact, he feels that the fact that Alec Lightwood is gay actually added more complexity to the role.
