{{original research|section|date=March 2025}}
A film version of ''[[Stopover Tokyo]]'', made in 1957, stars [[Robert Wagner]] as an American spy. This film eliminated Moto's character altogether. It disregards the plot of Marquand's novel, and was not a commercial or critical success.

In 1965 Mr. Moto's character was revived in a low-budget [[Robert Lippert]] production filmed in England starring [[Henry Silva]]. In ''Mr. Moto Returns'', a.k.a. ''[[The Return of Mr. Moto]]'', Mr. I.A. Moto is a member of [[Interpol]]. The very tall Silva conveyed an almost [[James Bond]]-like playboy character; in the fight scenes it is obvious{{cn|date=March 2025}} that he is not proficient in martial arts. He speaks in a lazy '[[Beatnik]]' manner. Nowhere in the film is it mentioned that Moto is Japanese. He is referred to as an "Oriental" and, oddly, in the trailer, Moto is referred to as a "swinging Chinese cat". It is only when disguised as a Japanese oil representative, Mr. Takura, that a stereotypical portrayal of a Japanese businessman is given.
