Date Moved Up For The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones
13 hours ago | ScifiMafia | See recent ScifiMafia news »
It seems to be a trend with movies, most recently I’ve noticed it with Star Trek Into Darkness, but movies have started to move their dates up to Wednesday instead of the traditional Friday to capitalize on their opening weekend. The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones is the latest to take advantage of the trend.
According to book author, Cassandra Clare on her Tumblr, the release date has been moved up to August 21, and she’s thrilled about it.
I’m really excited because it means the fans will get to see the movie earlier! It also reflects a lot of confidence in the film on the part of the studio to move it to a Wednesday release date so I’m really excited about that, too.

'The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones' release date pushed up?
21 May 2013 7:26 AM, PDT | Twilight Examiner | See recent Twilight Examiner news »
While the release date for "The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones" has been set as Aug. 23 for months and months, it appears Sony Pictures may have just pushed it up by a couple of days to Wednesday, Aug. 21. On the movie's official Facebook page, a new cover image was posted indicating that the adaptation of Cassandra Clare's best-selling series lead-off will be "in theaters August 21." The same date was also reflected on the movie's official Twitter handle. This cannot yet be said for the "Mortal Instruments" website, which still reflects the original Aug. 23 release date, but even still it looks like Shadowhunters may just be getting their much-anticipated film a little sooner than expected!

'Mortal Instruments' Sequel: Lily Collins, Jamie Campbell-Bower Confirmed for 'City of Ashes'
9 May 2013 10:13 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
"Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" isn't hitting theaters until August 23, but there is already a sequel in the works, with two stars confirmed to return: Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell-Bower. According to a tweet from "Mortal Instruments" producer Martin Moszkowicz, the on-screen (and reportedly off-screen) couple are set to star in the next adaptation of the Ya fantasy novel series, "City of Ashes." Cassandra Clare's popular book series has a big following, so it's not hard to see why sequels -- and even prequels -- are already in the works. "Mortal Instruments" follows a New York City teenager (Collins) as she learns that she is a descendent from a noble line of half-angel demon slayers and joins their ranks in an attempt to rescue her mother.

YA Franchises Mortal Instruments and Divergent Already Have Sequels in the Works
9 May 2013 8:42 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
The folks behind the upcoming adaptations of Young Adult novels “Divergent” and “The Mortal Instruments” are so sure their movies are going to launch the “Twilight”-esque franchise they want so badly, they’ve already begun work on sequels. Because, you know, they’re absolutely sure it’s going to happen. Not really. This is pretty much standard operating procedure nowadays with wannabe movie franchises, but especially for all these Ya novels being snatched up by producers to turn into the next “Twilight” or “Hunger Games” or “Harry Potter”. To that end, “The Mortal Instruments” stars Lily Collins and Jamie Campbell Bower will be heading to Cannes with the film’s producers to try to sell buyers on a sequel to their film. Besides the two stars, the sequel (based on “The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes”) will also return director Harald Zwart. The first movie, “The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones »

'Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes' Reveals Its Plot Synopsis In Horror Bites
9 May 2013 7:06 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
Those damn dirty apes are back. "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" has started filming with Andy Serkis reprising his role as Caesar, directed by Matt Reeves ("Let Me In"). We knew that effects company Weta would return to create the same realistic, expressive apes from the first film that will be unleashed in theaters on May 23, and now plot details have emerged for the new chapter.
The film takes place 15 years after "Rise of the Planet of the Apes." Caesar leads a band of genetically evolved apes, but the humans that survived the deadly virus a decade earlier threaten their existence. A truce is formed, but things quickly spin out of control as war breaks out in the fight for dominance. Jason Clarke ("Zero Dark Thirty"), Gary Oldman ("The Dark Knight Rises"), Keri Russell ("Mission Impossible III"), Judy Greer ("The Descendants") also star, with Toby Kebbell ("RocknRolla") and »

8 May 2013 1:27 PM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
"The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones" doesn't open in the Us until August 23, but plans are already well under way for a sequel, "The Mortal Instruments: City of Ashes," reuniting stars Lily Collins ("Mirror, Mirror") and Jamie Campbell Bower ("Camelot").
Director Harald Zwart and screenwriter Jessica Postigo Paquette are also set to return and production is expected to begin in the fall. The sequel will be touted to buyers at the upcoming Cannes Film Market.
Based on a popular series of Young Adult novels by Cassandra Clare, "Instruments" centers on Clary Fray (Collins), a Shadowhunter who battles demons including vampires and werewolves.
Although the books are internationally successful -- selling over 16 million copies worldwide -- moving ahead on a sequel before seeing how the first film fares at the box office feels premature. While "The Twilight Saga" and "The Hunger Games" have shown the potential for Ya-based blockbusters, notable bombs »

We were a little surprised to see Screen Gems and Constantin Film starting development of a prequel to their Lilly Collins/Jamie Campbell-Bower-starring adaptation of The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones last month. It’s less surprising to learn that Collins and Campbell-Bower are now on for the sequel, City Of Ashes.The first film doesn’t even hit cinemas until August, but the companies behind it are already touting the second movie based on Cassandra Clare’s novels, with Harald Zwart back in the director’s chair and Jessica Postigo Paquette returning to write the script once again.While Bones will introduce young Clary Fray (Collins) and her discovery that she’s a half-angel demon hunter who can perceive things us mundanes cannot, City Of Ashes will continue her journey into this new world, and learning how to use her powers. Of course, things also get more complicated…City »

'The Infernal Devices': Dream Casting the 'Mortal Instruments' Prequel (Photos)
8 May 2013 10:26 AM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »
Now that the latest "Ender's Game" trailer is out and "City of Bones" is only three months away from release, it's time to get a head start on casting yet another promising young adult franchise. "The Infernal Devices" is best-selling author Cassandra Clare's prequel trilogy to her "Mortal Instruments" series, the first of which hits screens on Aug. 23. While "The Mortal Instruments" books take place in the late '00s, "The Infernal Devices" trilogy is set in Victorian England –- but centers around the same fantasy universe of Shadowhunters (angel-blessed demon hunters) and the paranormal creatures they protect regular humans (mundanes) from. The film is still in the early stages of development -- the screenplay is in the hands of writer Stephanie Sanditz -- and the producers at Constantin Films are looking for a director to attach, but it's never too early to dream about who should star in the cast. »

True Collaboration Could Make ‘The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones’ a Genre-Buster
24 April 2013 1:00 PM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »
One of the most anticipated (and packed) panels during this year’s Los Angeles Times Festival of Books was the “Mortal Instruments on Page & Screen” which featured the author of The Mortal Instruments series, Cassandra Clare, and the director of the upcoming The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones film, Harald Zwart, to expand on the process of bringing this beloved novel to life. Moderated by Los Angeles Times movie writer Nicole Sperling, Clare and Zwart explained the challenges and differences between writing a novel and creating a film, how they collaborated with one another, and what fans (and non-fans) can expect from the movie. Sperling began the panel by asking Clare about the process of turning her book into a film and Clare explained that the big question was, “Who do you sell your rights to?” And then, once those rights are sold, it becomes a process of letting go.
