Wilson Tapped for Mark Waters' 'Mitty'
Long gestating pic set to go.
Variety is reporting that an actor has finally been named to Mark Waters' The Secret Life of Walter Mitty as Owen Wilson will be taking the lead. The pic was announced back in March when it was revealed that Jim Carrey was once set as the lead and Steven Spielberg was even attached to direct.
