Ben Stiller directs the remake of the 1947 movie of the same name, in which he plays the lead, Walter Mitty. Danny Kaye played Walter Mitty in the original movie.
The Sectret Life Of Walter Mitty is based on James Thurber’s classic story of a day-dreamer who escapes his anonymous life by disappearing into a world of fantasies filled with heroism, romance and action. When his job along with that of his co-worker (Kristen Wiig) are threatened, Walter (Ben Stiller) takes action in the real world embarking on a global journey that turns into an adventure more extraordinary than anything he could have ever imagined.
