The story itself is several days old already, but as far as I know it got little attention back when it was published. In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube said he’s so ready to star in a big-screen version of “The A-Team.”

As you may have guessed already, Cube is eyeing the role of Sgt. Bosco “B.A.” Baracus, the character originally played by Mr. T. “Man, I am so ready to play ‘B.A.’ Baracus. I was a big, big Mr. T fan,” Cube told the LA Times.

Attached to direct the project is John Singleton, who previously worked with Cube on 1991’s “Boyz n the Hood.” He said working with the director on an “A-Team” flick would definitely be his priority.

I’m not exactly a fan of Cube’s recent big-screen work, but I do have to admit I can see him play the part of B.A. Rumored to play Col. Hannibal Smith is Bruce Willis by the way, with Woody Harrelson in talks to star as Murdock.

Cube will next be seen in “The Longshots,” a sports drama directed by Fred Durst. Click here to read what else the actor had to say about “The A-Team.”

Alexis Bledel, the star of TV’s “Gilmore Girls,” has signed on to star in Julio DePietro’s upcoming romantic comedy “The Good Guy,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Also joining the project is “Friday Night Lights” star Scott Porter. Aaron Yoo, Bryan Greenberg, Andrew McCarthy and Anna Chlumsky are already on board.

Written and directed by DePietro, the film stars Porter as a successful Wall Street businessman who tumbles into a crisis when he starts to advise a news salesman (played by Bryan Greenberg).

Bledel will play Porter’s girlfriend, while McCarthy will star as his boss. Yoo is set to star as his co-worker.

Bledel will next be seen in Sanaa Hamri’s “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2.” Porter recently starred in “Prom Night” and “Street Racer.” He recently wrapped filming for Todd Graff’s “Rock On.”
