The Game In Talks To Play B.A. Baracus In The A-Team?

When John Singleton was developing an A-Team movie, he was talking to Ice Cube about playing B.A. Baracus. A year and a half later, Joe Carnahan has since been brought on board to get the project started, and BlackFilm is reporting that a new rapper has now become the front-runner for the mo-hawked soldier of fortune role originally played by Mr. T in the television series. The Game. The 29-year-old Grammy nominated rapper made his big screen debut in the not-well-received 2006 action-drama Waist Deep. He later had a small role in Street Kings.

The announced cast includes Liam Neeson as John "Hannibal" Smith and Bradley Cooper as Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Pack. For some reason I'm really not interested in an A-Team movie, which probably stems from my dislike for the series as a child. Also, I just think the show only worked in Regan-era (let's not get political...) But if I were interested, The Game's casting would probably excite me less than other, possibly more credible, options (even within the hip-hop field).But who knows, we really haven't seen what he has to offer yet. What do you guys think?
