# The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013)

2013 · PG · 114 min · Drama, Fantasy, Comedy · United Kingdom, United States


## Synopsis

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is a 2013 adventure comedy-drama film directed, co-produced by and starring Ben Stiller and written by Steve Conrad. The film also stars Kristen Wiig, Shirley MacLaine, Adam Scott, Kathryn Hahn, and Sean Penn. Though "more of a remake" of the 1947 film of the same name, both are film adaptations of James Thurber's 1939 short story. It follows a maladaptive daydreamer named Walter Mitty on his quest to find a missing negative print and its elusive photojournalist for Life magazine's final print issue.
