First it was Ice Cube, and then Tyrese, some say it should be Ving Rhames or Michael Clarke Duncan…
Hell I think director John Singleton should just straight up hold a press conference and announce his choices to play the main four characters in THE A-TEAM The Movie.
No word yet on who’s going to be who but recently UFC Champ Quinton “Rampage” Jackson spoke at Jimmy Kimmel Live about the possibility of playing B.A. Baracus
Kimmel: Now, what’s going on with your hair…because I heard you’re going to play–not Mr. T–but B.A. Baracus in the A-Team movie.
Rampage: I don’t know what you’re talking about, man. [laughs] No, I don’t know. I gotta audition for it, you know what I’m sayin’? I gotta do a screen test. Hopefully I get the part, hopefully I’m the next B.A. Baracus.
Kimmel: Has anyone broken it to Mr. T that he’s not the new B.A. Baracus?
Rampage: [pause] I pity the fool.
I guess Rampage looks mean enough to play Baracus, but does he have a sense of humor?
But then again, the word on the street is that this movie version would me grittier and much darker than the TV series.
Kinda like how Michael Mann transformed Miami Vice movie and made it… without color.
Because if John Singleton wants to keep the comical element in the movie, then he could probably cast Craig Robinson, his character in Pineapple Express looks a lot like B.A. Baracus
