Lily Collins to play Audrey Hepburn in film about Breakfast at Tiffany’s: All about the biopic
- Today, Lily Collins will portray Audrey Hepburn in a new film about the making of Breakfast at Tiffany's and called it `almost 10 years of development` on Instagram.
- Variety reports the film adapts Sam Wasson's Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M., 2010 book, which traces the making of the 1961 movie adapted from Truman Capote's 1958 novella.
- Collins will also produce while Alena Smith, writer and creator of Dickinson, was tapped to write the screenplay; Smith’s series starred Hailee Steinfeld, highlighting her period-drama experience.
- Early reactions highlighted both enthusiasm for the casting and skepticism about the project, with commentary noting Collins and Hepburn `look eerily alike` while others asked `But do we really need a retrospective on a classic film that is only 65 years old?`
- The project's meta nature — a movie about the making of a movie — positions it to explore broader cultural change, based on Wasson's book framing the `Dawn of the Modern Woman`.
