Alex Pettyfer: 'Mortal Instruments' vs. 'Hunger Games' Debate Continues!
Alex Pettyfer sports a bright red beanie as he takes a walk down the street from his home in Los Angeles on Friday morning (February 25).
The debate between Mortal Instruments and The Hunger Games continues for the 20-year-old actor. MTV suggested that Alex go with the former. Check out the reason why:
“Very simply, I explained that he should sign up to play Jace Wayland in The Mortal Instruments over Peeta Mellark in The Hunger Games, because he has the perfect amount of edge and intensity for Jace and not enough soft, mushy sweetness for Peeta.
“‘I’m not sure. I’m a big fan of both books and when both projects are moving forward I’ll hopefully interact.’”
Alex was also spotted around The Fox And Hounds Pub in Studio City on Saturday afternoon (February 26).
WHICH ROLE would you pick for Alex — Jace or Peeta?
JJJ Fun Fact: We got to meet Alex‘s new puppy yesterday! He’s so cute!

Mortal Instruments, not because I’ve read it, but because I think Hunter Parrish or Max Thieriot should be Peeta.
To be honest, Alex is a perfect Jace and I can’t really see anyone else playing him.
Hunter Parrish suits Peeta more I think.
Jace – because he’s Jace. Can’t imagine other playing the role…
Not that I have read Hunger Games (but I am planning to…) I absolutely think Alex should play Jace. He is perfect, (and it’s not a joke). He IS completely right for the role. I am sure most of Cassandra Clare’s fans will agree with me… Jace was meant for Alex. Alex Pettyfer is 100% perfect.
I would love Alex to play Jece Wayland, because when i read the book, i always pictured him playing this role.
I’ve read The Mortal Instrument series and the whole time I read it, I always pictured Alex Pettyfer as Jace Wayland! I couldn’t picture anyone else & still can’t even if it doesn’t take the role!
For Hunger Games so far I’ve read the first book and I think he wouldn’t be that bad as Peeta but I would prefer someone else but I don’t know who yet!
Pick Jace Wayland Alex please!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AHH!!!!!! I read the Mortal Instrument series like two years ago and I was so obsessed that I would look up fan made videos on YouTube and people always used Alex as Jace! I remember thinking ” I have no idea who this is but he is exactly how I pictured Jace!” I never in a million years would think that the actually actor would consider the part!! Alex HAS to be Jace!!!!!!!!
Peeta.
Alex Pettyfer would completely destroy Jace.
Pick Jace!!!!
Jace Wayland, or sure. I haven’t read The Hunger Games yet, but he’s just perfect for Mortal Instruments and I think there will be chemistry between him and Lily Collins.
ill watch whatever film Alex is in hes my favorite Britt star!!
i just watched i am number four,amazing.
Same here. I just finished TMI books and the entire time all I could picture for Jace is Alex. He was almost born to play the part. I have not read Hunger Games though.
UGH ! , Thats soo HARD to choose but honestly he would make a better Jace, i see him as both Jace and Peeta . But he makes a better Jace .
Jace.
i agree with the first comment. Peeta should be stocky, not lean like Alex.
Alex choose Jace please you’d be perfect for him. I can’t see Alex as Peeta
Jace is SEVENTEEN. Peeta is not older.
Alex looks for 27+
and honestly i’m sick of his silence
The question at hand is why Justjared is now Alex Pettyfers public relations blog.
Alexis Jace. Hunter Parrish is Peeta. You should really get an interview wih Hunter and see his take because he is the fans top choice at the moment.
MI isn’t happening. That’s over. It would take a minor miracle to get Pettyfer back into that. Hunger Games is what’s available to him.
He would be a terrible Peeta. Peeta is supposed to be attractive and Alex is not. I’m hoping they cast someone like Freddie Stroma or Hunter Parrish.
He should play Jace.
Peeta was ANNOYING. I was voting for Gale until the end because I never liked him. Jace is AWESOME. And Alex does NOT look 27something. He played a sixteen year old in I Am Number Four. I think that was how old they made him in the film, in the book he was sixteen. And he is playing a seventeen year old in Beastly. Besides, they could move Jace’s age to nineteen or something. I’m a fan of the books, but I would like that.
I already don’t like who they cast as Clary. Ugh.
Alex should play Finnick! Perfect amount of vulnerability and self confidence.
Alex Pettyfer has the perfect qualities for Finnick Odair, a character in the Hunger Games. Whether he decides to sign up for both projects, Finnick would be a more suitable part for him giving him a proper portion in the Hunger Games trilogy though he doesn’t necessarily have to play the lead.
I haven’t read the Mortal Instrument series, so I wouldn’t know how he would be portraying that “Jace” character, but I know for a fact that he wouldn’t necessarily be the best actor for Peeta. It’s a gut feeling.
