Tony Takitani (トニー滝谷) was adapted into a 2004 Japanese movie directed by Jun Ichikawa.
Furthermore, he has had starring roles in major art-house films, including Ota in the Edward Yang's highly regarded Yi Yi: A One and a Two, the title character in Jun Ichikawa's Tony Takitani (an adaptation of the Haruki Murakami short story), and has played the role of Japanese Emperor Hirohito in Aleksandr Sokurov's 2005 film, The Sun.
Tony Takitani (2004)—a rare adaptation of a short story by bestselling author Haruki Murakami—received critical acclaim, with Miyazawa playing two roles alongside Issei Ogata.
Haruki Murakami was intrigued by the name Tony Takitani when, at a garage sale on Maui, he found a yellow T-shirt that said, "Tony Takitani, House (D)."
