  Liam Neeson was seen sporting his Col. John “Hannibal” Smith silver hair on the Vancouver, Canada set of The A-Team, along with co-stars Bradley Cooper playing Lt. Templeton “Faceman” Peck, Sharlto Copley playing Capt. “Howling Mad” Murdock and UFC fighter Quinton Jackson playing Sgt. Bosco “B.A.” Baracus.  The film starts in 1972 as a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team

  Sharlto Copley (District 9) and Jessica Biel (Easy Virtue) are in the final negotiations with Fox to join the cast of Joe Carnahan’s (Smokin' Aces) 2010 action/adventure The A-Team.  Biel and Copley will star along side Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper and the recently cast Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.  Copley will be playing helicopter pilot Capt. “Howling Mad” Murock, while Biel will be playing the ex-love of Lt. Templeton 'Faceman' Peck (Cooper).  The film keeps the TV series premise of four wrongly convicted vets escaping from prison to become do-gooder mercenaries but carries a more serious tone than the small-screen version, and is set to be released on June 11th, 2010.

  The long awaited search for The A-Team’s new B.A. Baracus has come to a close with former UFC champion Rampage Jackson.  Jackson won the role over several other contenders including Common, The Game and 50 Cent.  To prepare for the film, Jackson has been removed from the UFC 107 card where he was set to face Sugar Rashad Evans in an Ultimate Fighter finale showdown.  The role of B.A. Baracus was previously played by the notorious Mr. T (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs), which leaves Jackson with some pretty large shoes to fill.  With Jackson in Vancouver shooting The A-Team over the next six weeks, the question still remains, who will play 'Howling Mad' Murdock?
