In the new documentary, Crazy About Tiffany's, it is revealed that a different Hollywood starlet was originally considered for the iconic role in Breakfast at Tiffany's. The actress being none other than the platinum-haired bombshell Marilyn Monroe.
"What's interesting is in the film we mention that Marilyn Monroe was originally being considered for the role," Crazy About Tiffany's director Matthew Miele told The Telegraph. "It changed everything about the image so I think they lucked out with that."
Undoubtedly, the film would've been something entirely different without Hepburn's inimitable elegance and charm. And the impact she had on Tiffany's by association cannot be denied.
