The-Secret-Life-of-Walter-Mitty-International-Poster-sliceBen Stiller’s The Secret Life of Walter Mitty has long been on the radar as one of the year’s must-see movies, and its debut at the NYFF last month did nothing to change that – you can read our review here.

Its world premiere was soon followed by the first full-length trailer, and then an even longer UK trailer a few weeks ago. And now a great new international poster has surfaced online, showing Stiller as the eponymous Walter Mitty, surrounded by his secret life of daydreams.

Ben Stiller directs and stars in THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY, 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 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.

Kristen Wiig stars opposite Stiller in the female lead, with a great ensemble cast in the form of Adam Scott, Sean Penn, Kathryn Hahn, Patton Oswalt, and Shirley MacLaine.

Stiller directs from a script written by Steve Conrad (The Pursuit of Happyness), remaking the 1947 film of the same name, based on a short story by James Thurber.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty will open on Christmas Day in the US, with its UK release date fortunately following just one day later on Boxing Day. In the meantime, here’s the brilliant new poster, which you can click through to enlarge.
