Wiig provided once again her voice for "Despicable Me 2", released in June 2013, and for the character of Sexy Kitten in the critically acclaimed sci-fi romantic drama "Her" (2013). She would have a prominent role as the love interest and co-worker of the titular character in the adventure dramedy "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty" (also 2013), alongside Ben Stiller and Sean Penn, which polarized critics and was a moderate box office success. "The New York Daily News" praised Stiller and Wiig's "sweet, mellow chemistry", and Peter Travers of "Rolling Stone" found her to be "lovely, low-key" in the film, which he considered as "uniquely funny and unexpectedly tender". Her other 2013 film was the comedy sequel "", in which she teamed with frequent collaborators Will Ferrell and Steve Carell. With Ferrell, she subsequently starred in the six-episode miniseries "The Spoils of Babylon" (2014), and its fellow-up "The Spoils Before Dying" (2015) as well as the made-for-television film "A Deadly Adoption" (2015). While Joshua Alston of "The A.V. Club" gave "A Deadly Adoption" a B− and commented that everything in the film is "right visually, and Ferrell and Wiig are close enough to where they should be tonally", Wiig was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries or a Movie for her role in "The Spoils of Babylon".
