Now that the whole team is set, the filming has started in Canada and comingsoon has the photo of the new van which looks very similar the old van from the series. At least that one is faithful to the original, I may not completely agree with Sharlto Copley playing the insane chopper pilot Howlin’ Mad Murdock but since he already got the role, I can only hope that he’ll do right by the character.
Recently Jessica Biel got the female lead playing Face’s ex and now EW reported Watchmen’s Nite Owl, Patrick Wilson has also joined the cast playing a CIA operative, possibly assigned to hunt down the war vets convicted of a crime they didn’t commit and are now on the run as fugitives while helping the oppressed seek justice. It was my favorite series in the 80s which now has become my most anticipated movie of 2010. The big screen version will be more sleek than silly, this time people will get shot.
Liam Neeson plays Col. Hannibal Smith, Bradley Cooper plays Faceman, Rampage plays B.A. “Bad Attitude” Baracus, Sharlto Copley plays Howlin’ Mad Murdock. Produced by Ridley and Tony Scott, with screenplay written by Derek Haas and Michael Brandt (Wanted) THE A-TEAM opens June 11th, 2010
