After shooting to fame thanks to her breakout role opposite Julia Roberts in 2012's Mirror Mirror, Lily has most recently appeared in The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bones, the big screen adaptation of Cassandra Clare's best-selling teen fantasy series of novels.
Speaking to MTV about what attracted her to the character Clary Fray she said: 'I love the stories. I love Clary because she’s this heroine who’s this normal girl, who finds out she has these powers.
'The emotion is there. It’s not just a CGI world. It’s not just a translation of a book. It’s more emotionally, character-based than just aesthetically beautiful.'

And as well as securing a starring role in the movie, the actress also found love with her co-star Jamie Campbell Bower.
Cassandra recently told MailOnline: 'I remember coming to the set and one of the people who worked on the crew mentioned it. Then I saw them together and they’re so clearly in love and it’s very sweet. I wish them all the happiness.
'They’re very close and I begin to see them now in my head when I’m writing. I wrote Clary as very petite and delicate with freckles, because it’s a lot of fun to do a reversal because she turns out to be strong, which is very like Lily.'
