Robert Sheehan Cast as Simon in The Mortal Instruments Movie

Hey everyone,

I’ve just got news that Robert Sheehan (Misfits) has just been added to the cast of “The Mortal Instruments” as Simon.

Cassandra Clare released the news on her Twitter

So remember when I said we wouldn’t have a Simon till July for Reasons?

The Reasons were that the actors up for Simon had to test with Jamie and Lily in Toronto to see how the chemistry worked. When I talked to Jamie and Lily yesterday it was about who we thought was the absolute best, the most Simon-y Simon, and fortunately we all agreed.

Y’all know I am a big Misfits fan, so you should not be surprised to know that I’m ecstatic that our Simon is

Robert Sheehan. You may know him as Nathan.

I think that Sheehan will be perfect for the role, but what do you guys think of him?
