Audrey Hepburn's Son Supports Lily Collins as His Mother in New Film

Sean Hepburn Ferrer, the son of legendary actress Audrey Hepburn, has expressed his support for the casting of Lily Collins to play his mother in a new film.

The film, based on the book “Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M.: Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany’s and the Dawn of the Modern Woman” by Sam Wasson, will focus on Hepburn's life during the filming of “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” in 1961.

Sean Hepburn Ferrer told Fox News Digital: “I adore Lily Collins. Sam Wasson is a good friend of mine, and I’m delighted for him. I don’t have any particular opinion about the film, as it hasn’t been filmed yet.”

Collins' casting has generated mixed reactions, with some calling it ideal and others expressing reservations. Film experts point out that embodying such an iconic figure is a challenge, but the actress's talent is crucial.

Lily Collins stated that the project has been in development for almost ten years and expressed her excitement about the role.
