It looks like Frodo is being shoe-horned into The Hobbit to keep audiences happy (general audiences, mind you, not LotR fans who are not pleased with this news).. According to a report from AICN:
Summary: Book 1, Chapter 12: Flight to the Ford. When Frodo comes to, the other hobbits are standing over him. When he put the Ring on, they saw only shadows rushing by and Frodo disappearing and then reappearing, collapsed on the ground. The Black Riders are gone, having been repulsed by Strider’s defense and by the Elven names Frodo invoked.
The end of this book marks a change in this pattern, as they learn to rely on themselves as well as others. Overall, Frodo’s general lack of power has actually been an asset, because he is less likely to be tempted by the Ring’s dark influence. Archibald, Georgie. "The Fellowship of the Ring Book 1, Chapter 12."
Analysis: Book 1, Chapters 5 & 6. In these chapters, Tolkien gives us the opportunity to get to know Frodo’s companions a little better.

But Frodo’s companions also seem a bit more adventurous than most ...

Less than a day into their journey, Frodo, strangely nervous, requested that the threesome hide upon the approach of a horseman. The rider was dressed in black, riding upon a black horse, and making queer sniffling noises. Frodo felt the urge to put on the Ring and vanish, but just as he was about to give in, the rider departed at a trot. Samwise t...

Glorfindel, seeing that Frodo was starting to...

After two marches they came to the valley of the Morgulduin and continued east.
