http://www.aintitcool.com/node/42827

well her eis a look at the new A -Team.

personally i think the team looks pretty good and am kinda giddy at the thought of a big screen montage of them making some crazy ass vehicle out of lawnmowers and taxicabs

I don't know that looks pretty cool

Rampage Jackson as BA
Liam Neeson As Hannibal???
Face = ?
Murdock = ?

I don't know the other two actors so which is playing which?

Im glad he isnt because he's so annoying. I think he would try to be way too over the top.

they guy playing murdock is the lead from district 9.

you might have seen the guy playing face in a few movies recently. the most popular lately being The hangover and Midnight Meat Train, both good movies

This is a weird choice imo. Not that Neeson is a bad actor which he isn't. But when it comes to him doing American characters his accent's not good. Too much of Irish comes out in it.

I am looking forward to this movie. I hope it doesn't take itself too seriously and we see some over the top action just like the tv show

That could be a lot of fun.

Of course, i'm very forgiving with movies like this. I loved GI Joe.

Bravo that they kept the ORIGINAL appearances of these characters intact. The guy playing Faceman is a little too goofy looking to be considered the impossible for women to resist guy in my opinion. I'm hopeful some elements of comedy will be retained for the new film, since that is what made the series so great.


Also, it is fantastic that the original co-creator, Steven Cannell, is supposedly writing the film. That way, the movie should stay true to the original as best as possible. We'll see next year, I suppose.


I could just see if some new upstart writers had gotten ahold of this film. B.A. would have been changed into a woman and other nonsense. Not very keen on a female chasing the A- Team who has a romantic link with Face. Can't anything not be completely PC nowadays??

He's a producer, but he's not writing it. The movie is written by the guy who wrote Swordfish, Hitman and Wolverine and the duo that wrote 2 Fast 2 Furious, the 3:10 to Yuma remake and adapted Wanted.

I'm really excited for this move! Is there a projected release date for it yet?

No Amy Allen?

It would be a shame if Mr. T did not get a cameo. The other remaining cast members may not be so recognizable today but T is still well known. Actually, I wouldn't mind seeing all of them in it some how - except for George Peppard, of course. Unless it's some kind of archival footage of something he was in. I'm sad about that too as Hannibal Smith was always my favorite character.

There was talk of George Peppard making a cameo but it was decided it wouldn't be in the best interests of the film makers

Thank you for clearing that up.

Great pic! Looking forward to this. I hope they don’t make it all serious and violent. The mix of comedy and action was probably the most vital ingredient of the original show. Oh, and Mr. T must appear somewhere.

This looks good! I hope they try to stick to the TV sereis a little.

Wow, I've been hearing about this for years. Glad to see some headway. And they look great! I hope they are going to make a good, fun action flick and not A) make it dark and gritty (though with the characters looking that much like the classics, I don't see why) or B) a "funny" romp, ala Land of the Lost or Starsky and Hutch.

Agreed.

Exactly

Jackson appeared for a second time as a coach on the reality series The Ultimate Fighter opposite Rashad Evans. They were scheduled to fight at UFC 107, but this has now been cancelled as Jackson has taken a movie role to act as B. A. Baracus on an A-Team feature film

Needless to say I am not happy about this movie......

She's the woman who originally hired the A-Team in the pilot episode, and was part of the team for Season 1 and part of Season 2 before being replaced by Marla Heasley.

From Wikipedia:

According to writer Michael Brandt, the adaptation will be more in vein of Die Hard, The Bourne Identity, and Casino Royale.

This is one movie where I dont want a love interest or any women for that matter. I just want to see fast cars, hot guys and things being blown up. Oh, and things being shot at. Fun times.

This is one of my favorite 80's T.V.series.I've watched every episode.I'm also glad that they left the characters the way they were.They would almost have to have Amy Allen in it since she was there outside contact.She did alot of the footwork since she worked at the paper and had alot of connections.I hope there's the chemistry between B.A. and Murdock like there was in the original series.I'm going to miss Franke Santana though.I may be the only one who liked him but his speciality in special effects added to the later seasons for me.I wonder if they'll use the 83'-84' GMC vans for the movie?

From Wikipedia:

Yeah Tawnia who replaced Amy Allen didn't last long until they wrote her out.She got married off in the 2 parter "Bend in the River"to Barry Van ****.That was the last was seen of her.
