News > 'Hardy Men' Has A Writer!

Looks like Hollywood is moving forward with the much anticipated adaption "The Hardy Men." According to Hollywood Reporter:

"Men in Black" writer Ed Solomon has been hired to take a crack at "The Hardy Men," a comic riff on the classic young-adult mystery novels about two brothers who solve crimes.

Ben Stiller and Tom Cruise remain lined up to star, with "Night at the Museum" helmer Shawn Levy attached to direct.

The Hardy Boys adventures revolved around the mystery-solving efforts of teenagers Frank and Joe Hardy, amateur detectives who often helped their father, a private investigator.

The film adaptation would explore the reunion of the estranged, grown-up brothers, who work together to solve a new mystery. The Fox 2000 comedy has been on many writers' laptops during its 10-plus years in development, most recently that of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" screenwriter Simon Kinberg."

After catching a glimpse of Tom & Ben in Tropic Thunder, I can only welcome this movie with open arms. This will surely be a hit!
