Cruise and Stiller: Hardy Boys?



Are Tom Cruise and Ben Stiller planning on remaking the Hardy Boys? TMZ is reporting that Cruise and Stiller are in talks to play the Hardy Boys in a movie, possibly titled The Hardy Men, which is scheduled to go into production in October.

Why? This movie is completely unnecessary. Even more unnecessary than the remake of Bewitched Didn't Hollywood learn anything from that fiasco? Like you can't be better than Elizabeth Montgomery, even if you are Nicole Kidman!

I'm sceptical that this rumor is actually true, as I can't imagine Cruise playing one of the Hardy Boys, even if they are men now, and solving the mystery of the late library book is hardly riveting movie material. Besides, no one can play a Joe Hardy like Shaun Cassidy. No one.
