New pic of the A-Team remake, new cast starring the A-Team. It’s a painting or a graphic design of the cast. It’s pretty close to the original cast from the TV series.
Looks awesome, and can’t wait.
Why isn’t Rampage wearing Mr. T’s golden chain necklaces? I’m sure he would be wearing them for the film.
I hope this film won’t be a comedy, it would be a mix of action and drama like the TV show. I’m sure it would stay true to the TV show.

It seems that Bryan Singer wants to return to the X-Men franchise. He is in talks with 20th Century Fox to direct the fourth installment of the X-Men series.
It seems he badily misses working on X-Men, that he seemed to come up with a new idea for the next film. Maybe he saw Bret Rattner’s “X-Men: The Last Stand” and thought the film sucked so he can come back to save the series.
Singer directed the first two X-Men flicks, but dropped out of X-Men 3 “The Last Stand” due to immediately jumping on the opportunity to direct “Superman: Returns” for Warner Brothers.
Now that there are no new plans for a new Superman movie in the works due to the Seigels heated feud with DC/Warner Bros, Singer still wants something to do in the comic book genre.

That’s good, I’m glad Singer’s coming back. I fucking LOVED the first X-Men movie, 2nd one was pretty good. Didn’t like the third one.
Singer should have stayed with the X-Men movies, I’m glad he wants back in! Yeah!

Ever since the news was broke yesterday that Adrien Brody is starring the leading role in “Predators” as the film’s main action star, this idea is getting a lot of negativity and hate, as expected. I’m sure Robert Rodriguez expected a backlash on his choice of Adrien Brody, too.
Hey, even I said I’m not that big of a fan of his acting. Just because you don’t like his previous films in the past, does not mean he’s going to suck in this one.
Of course, most movie fans would want muscles and full of steroid action stars to be in “Predators”. Robert wanted a different idea. Robert wanted a guy with no action movie experience, so he went for a guy with acting talent. I don’t like Adrien’s acting eithier, but like him or not, Adrien has the skills. He is a talented actor. Robert clearly wanted a guy with acting talent, and not only being a tough guy badass.
Does Adrien have what it takes to be a toughguy badass? YES! He maybe getting a lot of hate now, but I think Adrien will not dissapoint “Predator” and action movie fans.
The reason for the hate on the choice of Adrien Brody is because he’s never done a sci-fi/action movie before, he’s mostly known as a drama star, and think he doesn’t have the potential to be an action movie star.
Hell, we all thought the same with Matt Damon when he was first announced he was doing the Bourne series. We all thought he didn’t have what it takes to be an action star, and Matt Damon was successful and delivered the Bourne films.
The same can happen with Adrien in “Predators”.
I have never seen, “The Pianist”, but I have seen him in the “King Kong” remake. “King Kong” was kind of like an action movie, almost.
If Robert had an action movie tough guy like Stallone, Dolph, Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, The Rock, etc. play the lead in “Predators”, that would be silly and boring. Sci-fi action flicks that stars muscle action stars is getting old and boring.
I think Adrien’s the right guy, he’s perfect. This will indeed give him more opportunities to star in many more action flicks ahead after he’s done with “Predators”. Remember, a drama actor just don’t want to star in drama films his entire career.
I always saw Adrien Brody being an action movie kind of guy and I think he can pull it off. I think Robert Rodriguez is going to make this an awesome movie. Looking forward to seeing how he’s going to do it. I’m sure Robert will speak out soon on why he has chosen, Adrien Brody.
Just give Adrien a chance, I think he will deliver a great performance, doing his own action stunts and all.

Robert Rodriguez is helming the upcoming “Predators” movie, which will be released by 20th Century Fox and seems that Rodriguez found the film’s leading star.
Oscar winner, Adrien Brody, is set to star the lead in, “Predators”. While he is mostly known as a drama star, this will give him the opportunity to make him known as an action star as well. Brody will be playing a character similar to Arnold’s, Dutch from the first “Predator” film.

Look like Adrien will have to start working out in the gym and bulk up a bit for this role. He won’t be no Arnold since he is a skinny guy, but Adrien should at least look fit and tough for this role if he’s really going for it. I’m sure he would get in shape for this role.
I’m not sure if I like this choice, I’m not a fan of this guy’s acting but hey ya never know, maybe Adrien can actually deliver this film.

The A-Team has finally started filming with cast members. See how the characters are just an exact match from the original TV series. Liam Neeson looks exactly like George Peppard as Hannibal as I expected. Rampage Jackson looks exactly like Mr. T, Bradley Cooper is an exact match to Faceman Peck, and Sharlto Copley as Murdock.
See the rest of the pics here:

Very cool.
Maybe the A-Team movie would actually be promising and it’s getting better looking at the photos.

Coming soon has a pic of the new A-Team van. The van looks very similar to the classic van from the TV series.

I know this film is getting a lot of negativity, they don’t want to see the A-Team remade of course, but I actually think it’s kind of cool.
I think they’re gonna make a good A-Team movie and I for one, am looking forward to seeing Liam Neeson as Hannibal. I think Liam can nail that character perfectly.

The “District 9” leading star, Sharlto Copley, and supermodel/actress hottie, Jessica Biel are in talks with 20th Century Fox to join the cast of the “A-Team” remake. Copley will play the comedic character, Murdock. Jessica Biel will be playing an Army general that is also Faceman Peck’s ex-lover.
Also joining the cast, will be Liam Neeson as Hannibal, Bradley Cooper as Faceman, and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson as BA Baracus.

Not a bad cast. I can definitely see Sharlto Copley as Murdock. Copley is a good actor and I’m sure he can nail the Murdock role perfectly. If you don’t think he can, I suggest you watch, “District 9”. His role in “District 9” is kind of similar to Murdock in “A-Team” which is what made Fox go after him.

Well, it looks like 20th Century Fox found their Hannibal for the “A-Team” movie, that would be no one other than Liam Neeson. Bradley Cooper is also in talks to play Faceman Peck.
I think Liam is a perfect fit for Hannibal. Look at the two pictures above. Notice the similarities? The eyes look the same and the smile is similar too. They’ll probably give Liam a different hair color to match Hannibal’s from the TV show, give him that cigar, the black gloves, the clothes, and there’s a perfect match.
20th Century Fox probably loved what Liam did in the movie “Taken”, and they figure he’s capable of doing action flicks at this age. Liam Neeson is currently filming “Clash of the Titans” remake since returning to work from his small hiatus, since the death of his wife, Natasha Richardson.

Oliver Stone’s hit 80’s movie, “Wall Street” is confirmed to be making a sequel. Shia LaBeouf is set to star, Michael Douglas is in negotations to return.
The first film focused on a young stockbroker trying to get to the top at “Wall Street”, while of course, “Wall Street 2” will focus on the bad economic times that the real “Wall Street” in NYC is having now.
The first movie also starred Charlie Sheen but I wonder if Oliver Stone tried asking Charlie to return, but he refused which is what made Shia to take his place?
I’m glad a sequel is being made, I loved the first movie!
