Thanks to SDL's suggestion, here's a fresh topic regarding possible casting choices for the Hardys. Their family and friends can also be included, of course.
Please post your ideas (and photos) here! :)
You're allowed to re-post your ideas so it's a more organized topic.
But I guess I'll get the ball rolling (soon).
How about Chris Pine as Joe with Zachary Quinto as Frank?

I think he is so cute! :-* He is my only Joe...
(http://www.freewebs.com/joshhutcherson4u/JoshHutcherson.jpg)
He could play a UB Frank, he's 17 and adorable!
Those two are my overall choices for them, these next ones are just in case they can't make it. :D

Frank? Love his eyes...

FJA says maybe for Frank?

Frank?

He reminds me of The Hidden Theif.
BTW he is Prince Caspian.
If you haden't said that I would never have known, but now all I see is Caspian.
Mwa ha ha, evil plan is working.... :P ;) :D
Henry Cavill would be pretty good for Frank (according to IMDb he's even 6'1''!):

Here's a good Joe (Alex Pettyfer):

Here's some of my posts from the old "Hardy Men (http://www.hardyboyscasefiles.com/forums/index.php?topic=974.0)" thread:

Jeremy Sumpter would make a good Joe, too. Mind you I haven't seen him in anything but going on look alone...
(http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f167/2mc00chick7/jsumpter.jpg)
I didn?t know that guy was Prince Caspian at first either LOL.
Henry Cavill looks like a pretty decent choice ? especially in the first photo (as posted by SDL).
I could maybe go for Cody Linley too i.e. as a UBs Joe (as posted by JHR).
BTW, everyone: we could also attempt Nancy, Bess, George, and Ned. I know I included "Frank and Joe?s friends", but usually that just implies their guy friends. And don't forget the adults in their life - although, we like focusing on the main main characters.
These are the best I can find so far: possible Joes and Franks.
But how ironic are the last two guys - they both have the name "Matt" with the last initial "L".
BTW, the last image wouldn't work after I tried a few times, so I replaced it.
Alex Pettyfer (I was also going to post him)

Matt Lanter

(Could also work as a Joe?):

Again, the best I can find so far. I picture Iola somewhere between Ashley Leggat and Nina Dobrev.
And then, there is one Vanessa, followed by Callie(s) and/or a Bess.
Ashley Leggat

Nice! But the 3rd guy freaks me out. But FRANK has Brown eyes not blue.
Freaky hobbit!
*Josh and SDL pull out clubs and start fending off numorous oncomming Hobbits.*
Hey, maybe the actors can be the Models of the UB trilogy books, eh? lol......watcha think? ;D ;D ;D
You could use colored contacts for his eyes, and no way to the UB models. :P :P :P
lol... :P :P :P :P
OMG I found a Frank!!!! He's so cute!! Below with the brown hair. :D :D :D
But Maggie says he's too scrawny. :( :P Maybe Joe if he dyed his hair....
My overall Frank and Joes:

That's very good for a younger Frank.
But next to Cody, it does look a little bit off. Hmm.
I liked him as Frank!!! Hmmmm.... Maybe it's the size of the pictures? Or maybe Cody looks older... :-\
They were in a movie together a couple years ago:

I think it looks a little off because he doesn't look like he's older than the pick for Joe, he actually looks a little younger. But they
would make great Hardy Boys.

Whoa?Cody looks a little like Shaun Cassidy (who plays Joe on the ?77 series).

I?m in agreement with you - I also think Cody looks kind of older and stuff.
So I'm not sure about the pairing, but they're okay separately IMO *shrugs*

LOL yeah, 2 years later I think he looks like a perfect Frank ;D
(Sorry this is an old topic, but I couldn't resist ;D)
JHR, who is he? He looks so familiar! ???
Logan Lerman. ;D He was Percy in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Theif, and he was also in 3:10 to Yuma, My One and Only, and Hoot. :)
Mark Hapka from Days of Our Lives is the only guy so far that I can believe as a possible Frank. Frank, being my fave, is hard for me to find. Joe seems to be easier.
Here's a few pics...

(http://jimhalterman.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/mark-hapka-picture.jpg)
Obviously, he would have to play an older Frank...
Actually, I can kind of see Logan and Mark as Frank, but different stages of their lives (or series). Like UBs then Casefiles, etc.
Looks is half of it, but acting and personality completes it and makes the difference.
P.S. I still have this idea that in the UBs, Joe is 16 and Frank is 17. It's based on something I read or that was implied in the UBs at one time a while ago.
Kayyy, got some!! ;D

Frank! He's almost 16, and he's a great actor!! His name is Charlie Rowe. :)

Joe! He's almost 16, and his name is Ross Lynch. :)
(http://cdn2.mixrmedia.com/wp-uploads/girlybubble/blog/2011/12/josh-hutcherson-5.jpg)
Could be Frank :D He's like 19, Josh Hutcherson
or he could be..

Joe :D
And still....

Frank ;D
could work- I'd be cool with Josh Hutcherson as either Frank or Joe- I've seen a few movies he's been in and I think he'd do a good job.
Not familiar with Charlie Rowe, but I have seen Ross Lynch on Austin & Ally- he could probably pull it off as Joe.
Only thing is, Charlie Rowe is... British. :( :)
