==Legacy== ===In Russia=== [[File:Yul Brynner Park, Vladivostok, Russia.jpg|thumb|right|upright|Statue of Brynner in front of his birthplace in Vladivostok]] On September 28, 2012, a 2.4-m-tall statue was inaugurated at Yul Brynner Park, in front of the home where Brynner was born at Aleutskaya St. No. 15 in Vladivostok, Russia. Created by local sculptor Alexei Bokiy, the monument was carved in granite [[monolith]] that was acquired in China and delivered to Vladivostok, Russia. It depicts him in the role of King Mongkut of Siam from ''The King and I''. The grounds for the park were donated by the city of Vladivostok, which also paid additional costs. Vladivostok Mayor Igor Pushkariov, US Consul General Sylvia Curran, and Brynner's son, Rock, participated in the ceremony, along with hundreds of local residents. The Briner family cottage in suburban Vladivostok is now a Yul Brynner museum.<ref>{{cite web|title=Rock Brynner in the Russian Far East|url=http://www.rockbrynner.com/|website=www.rockbrynner.com|access-date=April 7, 2016}}</ref> ===In the U.S.=== In 1956, Brynner imprinted his hands and feet into the concrete pavement in front of Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California. In 1960, Brynner was honored with a star on the [[Hollywood Walk of Fame]] at 6162 [[Hollywood Boulevard]]. In 2022, a podcast was launched celebrating his filmography, entitled "Here's Looking at Yul, Kid," and has included guests such as [[Ron Howard]].<ref>{{Citation |title=We Watched Ron Howard's First-Ever Movie With Him!
