I would love for this to happen, too.
Oh…SAWEET. Great anticipated casting.
My only complaint is, why not just cast Mr. T again? He’s still around. He needs work.
Its like when they made the MC Hammer movie on VH1, yeah they got a guy that could kinda dance like hammer, and kinda looked like him, but do they really think they couldnt have gotten the original at a fair, possible lower price ?

haha…no kidding. MC Hammer doesn’t live too far away from me. We used to see him from time to time at the grocery store late at night.

Oh, good to know he’s working again…
Ice Cube as B.A. Baracus? WTF? I just can’t picture the roly-poly actor tossing kidnappers and terrorist thru the air.

HARSH, JB, real harsh…but funny
I don’t know about Ice Cube, but casting Bruce Willis as the Colonel and Woody Harrelson as Mad Murdock is pure awesome.

My thoughts exactly. The people behind this movie must be fucking retarded.

Id go with Michael Clark Duncan, now that’s someone you can see tossing people around.

Yeah either him or that guy that played as Damien in Friday after next…or…
The Rock…
I really like Dewayne Johnson and Michael Clark Duncan, but for some reason, i just can’t see them playing B.A the way that Mr. T did.
I say they would either have to make some major tweaks to the character, because those guys are much better actors, or go with somebody more physically imposing, maybe a no name, and just have him do a Mr. T impersonation.
I wouldn’t mind them giving B.A a bit more a brain and going with one of those two.
And Ice Cube ? I’m sorry, i like the dude, but i couldnt even watch the Triple X sequel because i didnt find him believeable as an action hero.
Dwayne Johnson would be a beter B.A.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Michael Jai White or even LL play B.A.
We all know that Prof-X would be the ultimate B.A. Baracus.

LOL! That was a good one. I wasn’t even considering that when I wrote it.
LL might be able to provide the attitude that BA had. I would love to see Hugh Laurie from House play the part of the colonel.
Rampage Jackson was supposed to be in serious consideration for the role of B.A. But now that he’s in all this legal trouble, who knows. He would’ve been great for that role, though!
I see the casting meeting going like this:
Producer: All right, now who do we cast?
Casting douche nozzle: Well, I have some ideas…
Producer: Let’s hear them!
Casting douche nozzle: Well, for Hannibal, I think we should call up Bill Paxton! I think he would do the role justice.
Producer: rubbing his forehead hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, and for Murdock?
Casting douche nozzle: Adam Sandler! Think about it, he is SO versatile… He could TOTALLY pull off Murdock!
Producer: looking frustrated Are you sure? Have you even seen an episode of the A-Team?
Casting douche nozzle: face getting red Of course I have! looks around nervously I have seen… An episode…
Producer: impatiently Fine. What do you have for B.A.?
Casting douche nozzle: All right, I thought long and hard about this. B.A. needs to be someone black, hard, and “ghetto”…and it came to me last night while I was driving through West L.A.
Producer: Well?
Casting douche nozzle: ICE CUBE!
Producer: looking stunned Ice…wha?.. I don’t… Ah fuck it, the average movie goer is a fucking retard, FUCK IT!..Lunch?
Casting douche nozzle: YES! I thought you would never ask, there is a new Thai joint on 4th and Flower!
Producer: Let’s do it. Good job!
Casting douche nozzle: Thanks!

I like Harrelson as Murdoch, after reading that first thought was him in Wag The Dog…perfect retard psycho.
Not sure about Willis as Hannibal, unless he gets rid of his current persona(mumbling lines and squinting at everyone) and brings back a wise-cracking Hudson Hawk/original Die Hard John McClaine to the role.
Of the ones mentioned, Michael Jai White would probably do the best job as BA.(After Rampage of course)
But who to play suave ladies man Face? Mathew McConaughey would probably do it well, but he would end up overpowering Willis as Hannibal.
Interesting idea though, if handled and staffed right, could make a decent movie.
Speaking of McConaughey, did you guys hear about the Magnum PI movie? How cool is that gonna be? McConaughey as Magnum(wonder if he’ll grow a mustache–I think it should be mandatory) and Steve Zahn as Rick? Pure gold. But then, who to play TC?
