Robert Sheehan Talks The Mortal Instruments Movie Filming & City of Ashes


Our beloved Simon Lewis, aka Robert Sheehan, recently sat down with RTE and talked about filming The Mortal Instruments. You can check out Cassie's post for it here, and watch the interview below.



Oh YES, you heard that right. City of Ashes is being filmed this fall!!!

Thank you to our friends over all TMI Source, they transcribed part of what Robert talked about:

On Simon Lewis: 
The book is about a character called Clary Fray, who starts to discover magical abilities in herself and then tumbles into this crazy, dark magical world that exists in tandem with New York. She discovers a race of demon hunters called Shadowhunters, which are part human, part angel, and realizes herself that she has Shadowhunter blood. And tumbling along with her is her BFF, who’s secretly harboring feelings of love for her — Simon Lewis — and that’s who I play in the film.


On the set:
We had a lovely kind of friend-vibe and obviously we had to do some nearly-romantic stuff, as well. Yeah, it was difficult, terribly difficult.
Working with Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Aidan Turner:
We were all speaking in Irish on set and we were very cliquish, us Hibernian lads. It was lovely. It was really lovely.

I can't wait for August 21st! Two more months!

  1. Simon is my favorite TMI character, so it's fun to learn more about the young man playing him.

    As a Scotch-Ulster with the family name of Myers, it's fun to hear about the Irish lads on the set, too!

    Thanks for posting!
