One movie opening later this year that is starting to be talking about is “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”. The film centers on an underachieving office worker, played by Ben Stiller, who goes to great lengths in his mind to catch the attention of a fellow co-worker, Kristen Wiig.

In the trailer below we see Walter gets assigned to work on the final issue of Life Magazine, and goes on a search for a missing photo negative. In his quest for the long-lost photo, he seemingly finds himself.

Below is the films official synopsis.

“Walter Mitty, a timid accountant with an overprotective mother, has elaborate daydreams of himself as the hero of great adventures. His dreams come to life when he meets a mysterious woman who gives him a little black book that supposedly contains the location of the Dutch crown jewels that we hidden during World War II, and Walter finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy.”

“The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” is an adaptation of James Thurber’s classic story of the same name. The film is slated to hit theaters on Christmas Day.
