Yes! Last week we found out "District 9" star Sharlto Copley got an offer to play Capt. "Howling Mad" Murdock in Joe Carnahan's upcoming "The A-Team" flick, and it turns out he is now in final negotiations to join the big-screen adaptation of the poular television series. That's awesome news.

Will 'District 9' star Sharlto Copley be Murdock in 'A-Team'?

DateThursday, September 10, 2009 at 11:10AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Sharlto Copley in District 9

Who knows if this is all true, but it may as well be. Blackfilm.com says "District 9" star Sharlto Copley has received an offer to star as Capt. "Howling Mad" Murdock in Joe Carnahan's upcoming "The A-Team" flick. How cool is that?

Of course, nothing has been confirmed by any official sources, and no word is out yet whether Copley accepted anything. I'm sure we will receive some details about this in the near future. The latest to join the film is Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson, who will be playing B.A. Baracus.

Will Quinton Jackson play B.A. Baracus in 'A-Team'?

DateWednesday, August 26, 2009 at 5:55PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Quinton Jackson

Reports currently spreading across the Web suggest UFC fighter Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson will be playing B.A. Baracus in Joe Carnahan's upcoming "The A-Team" flick. I would go easy on this and qualify it as a rumor until we get an official announcement, but that's what Yahoo! (via The Sun) has to say at this point.

Last thing I heard, several candidates for the role made famous by Mr. T were going through auditions, including The Game, Tyrese Gibson and even Ice Cube. Apparently, Jackson impressed the filmmakers the most. Like I said, it's not confirmed, but definitely possible.

Fox to release 'A-Team' film in 2010!

DateTuesday, January 27, 2009 at 10:11PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

"The A-Team" is definitely happening, and the film could open in theaters as early as June 11, 2010.

Acording to Variety, Twentieth Century Fox has hired Joe Carnahan to direct the big-screen version of the 1980s television hit series.

Also on board are Ridley Scott, who will produce the project, and Tony Scott, who will take on the role of executive producer.

Carnahan will team up with Brian Bloom to revise a script by Skip Woods, whose writing credits include "Swordfish" and "Hitman." Plans are to head into production this summer.

"Tony and I feel that marrying this Scott Free project with Joe's sensibility will result in a fast-paced, exciting franchise, one we hope will be around for years to come," Scott told Variety.

Not much has been said about the film's plot, but Carnahan and the Scotts said they will use the premise of the series as a starting point. Well... that's a start.

Just in case you can't remember who Joe Carnahan is, he directed "Narc" and "Smokin' Aces." He also co-wrote "Pride and Glory."

Are you excited about an "A-Team" flick? And who should really play who in this flick? Share your suggestions below.

Edgar Ramirez is the new 'Pablo'

DateThursday, August 14, 2008 at 9:36PM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Javier Bardem is out of “Killing Pablo,” but director Joe Carnahan has already found someone to replace him. According to Chud, Edgar Ramirez is in to play Colombian crime lord Pablo Escobar.

Ramirez previously starred in Paul Greengrass’ “The Bourne Ultimatum,” and he recently appeared in Pete Travis’ “Vantage Point.” He will next be seen in Steven Soderbergh’s “Che” flicks “Guerrilla” and “The Argentine.”

“"I spent the last week in Colombia with Edgar Ramirez talking 'Pablo' and he has every intention of portraying Escobar and I couldn't be more fired up by the prospect,” Carnahan told the folks over at Chud in an email.

Carnahan’s credits also include “Narc” and “Smokin’ Aces.” He also collaborated on the screenplay for Gavin O’Connor’s upcoming crime drama “Pride and Glory.”

Sure, Bardem would have made a great Pablo, but Ramirez’s also got the right look. Now he just needs to put on some weight.
