Tom Cruise and Ben Stiller Are the Hardy Boys

Twentieth Century Fox has signed Tom Cruise and his sometime impersonator, Ben Stiller, to play The Hardy Men, a Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum)-directed action comedy based on The Hardy Boys. According to Variety, the plot finds the onetime sleuthing siblings grown up and estranged, then reunited to have a three-way with Katie Holmes' Nancy Drew crack one last case.

Oh, good. I've always loved Tom Cruise's comedies like. . . Uh . . .

And even . . .

Oh my.

what a farce! I bet the only reason Cruise agreed to appear in a movie with Stiller is because he's one of the few actors who is even shorter than Cruise.

I am SO going to see this. When even the description has me giggling, that is gold.

Luckily Stiller has a good track record with TV-to-film remakes.;)

I'll admit it does seem to have a modicum of potential, as long as it isn't totally campy.

Matt, are you joking with us? This is a joke, right? This sounds like a SNL sketch.

No joke. In fact, it's the first of two films they plan to do together.

I wanted to see the Nancy Drew threesome.
But I guess that since you crossed it out it aint going to happen.
Thanks Matt:-x

Alert the Razzies, I believe they have a new candidate for worst movie and worst actor in a comedy for Mr Cruise.

I totally thought this was a joke - and you are bad, MWM - but in such a good way!

There is no way I will go see this - just no way - the Hardy Boys? Seriously?!

This is truly worthy of a WTF?!

OK, then if it's not a joke, I honestly cannot wait for this movie. It's going to be laughably bad.

What did Ben Stiller do to deserve this?

And Cruise has done comedy. Mission Impossible III.
