ahh crap. way to ruin a classic! the 80′s tv show, ‘the a-team’ is going to be hittin’ theaters. and with some big names, to boot! bradley cooper, liam neeson & jessica biel just to name a few. after months of speculation (and years of re-writes), 20th century fox has begun filming the remake. the team is up and running in vancouver, with joe carnahan directing (‘smokin’ aces’). is it just me, or has hollywood run out of ideas? i mean, really. i have a feeling this adventure into the world of remakes will not fare too well. regardless, the movie pops out in june of 2010.
bradley cooper hit up the tonight show with conan o’brien last week to promote his box office flop ‘all about steve.’ of course conan went on rumor control and probed cooper for some scoop on his next project, ‘the a-team’ movie. bradley will reprise the role of face, ufc fighter rampage jackson will take on ba baracus, sharlto copely (‘district 9′) will play murdoch and liam neeson will be hannibal. and where does jessica biel fit into all of this? well, she’ll be some eye candy for the men. apparently biel will play the ex-girlfriend of face, who is also an army general. hmmm.
to end this post, i’ll quote some fans who commented on the article about the upcoming film: “the a-team? more like the straight to dvd team.” i think this fan may have it right. what do you think?
