Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)
It is highly likely that a new film adaptation of Breakfast at Tiffany’s will be made in the future. However, it is almost certain that the character of I. Y. Yunioshi would not be portrayed by a white actor wearing yellowface and delivering a stereotypical depiction of an Asian person, as Mickey Rooney did in the original 1961 film. Rooney’s performance has faced significant criticism over the years, and even the director of Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Blake Edwards, expressed regret and a desire to recast the role.
