James Thurber's 1939 short story "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" will be made into a film starring Ben Stiller. A previous film version, directed by Danny Kaye, premiered in 1947. The new production has suffered from undisclosed script problems; but, writer Steve Conrad ("The Pursuit of Happyness") has done a re-write with which Stiller was reportedly pleased. Several male leads previously showed interest including Jim Carrey, Will Ferrell, Mike Myers, Owen Wilson and Sacha Baron Cohen.
