Thought: More on the reason Liam Neeson was picked for Hannibal…

Like I said before, it’s the face of both Liam Neeson and George Peppard which are almost an exact match! Not only that, their speaking voices are very similar too!

Why didn’t they pick Bruce Willis or George Clooney? Probably ’cause their face didn’t match George Peppard and they found that Liam is a perfect fit.

Liam is going to be awesome as Hannibal. You may not think it, but like it or not, Liam is perfect for the role. With the great acting skills that Liam has, I think he’ll nail down the Hannibal role, dead on, just you wait! As a matter of fact, Liam’s character in the action flick “Taken”, reminded me of Hannibal of the A-Team.

I can definitely see Liam lighting up his cigar and saying the famous catch phrase, “Get yourself a team”. George Peppard died of cancer in real life, so doing this A-Team remake would be a nice tribute for George. Liam is a great pick for honoring the man!

BREAKING NEWS: Liam Neeson in talks to play Hannibal in “A-Team” movie!!!!

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.
