A-Team gets a New Face ... and Hannible, BA & Murdock

After tackling some very serious issues the last few blogs -- (see: the naked man) -- I decided to lighten things up by posting the picture that debuted on EOnline yesterday.

THE NEW A-TEAM

The new crack team include BA Baracus (now played by UFC fighter Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson), Faceman, (played by Hangover star Bradley Cooper), Murdock (played by South African 'District 9' actor Sharlto Copley) while Liam Neeson will be in charge as Col. John 'Hannibal' Smith. The fab four are also joined by Jessica Biel who plays an army general in hot pursuit (we're guessing she'll be a sexy army general too).

As for the story, well, this modern A-Team are now a group of hardened Iraq War veterans trying to clear their name from a crime they didn't commit. And sneaky early shots from filming in Vancouver, Canada, would suggest that this will be as action packed as the TV show with the classic GMC van being spotted in some scenes.

I am all about giving the new team a chance, though I'm not thrilled with the addition of Jessica Biel. I also agree with the EOnline quibbles that pointed out Rampage is missing quite a few gold chains (if not all), Murdock's hat is entirely too new ... and is that a Hummer as the new van? That won't do.

Here are some more shots from the set, found on various sites:

(For the boys) LOL

Dude, I'd drive that sweet-ass van any day over a freakin' Hummer.
