I would like to see a cast who can play young and old versions of themselves. As 20-something year old commandos during the Gulf War and as they are 10-15 years later. My choices would be...
Hannibal Smith - Russell Crowe, Nicholas Cage
Faceman Peck - Sam Worthington, Ryan Phillippe, James Franco
Howling Mad Murdoch - Sean William Scott, Giovanni Ribisi
BA Baracus - Tyrese Gibson, Xzibit More

Hate to go all Daily Mail but...
So we'll get a film that concerns veterans of a confilct whose violent aftermath is still in the news, but presumably treated in the knockabout style of the oh-so-overrated show it's based on- eg no-one gets shot despite lots of bullets being sprayed around ?

You don't want an Ocean's Enselmble again. I reckon that you would need to have Michael Clarke-Duncan for BA (mind you, I don' t know if he has the attitude), Pierce Brosnan would be a good Face (or Uncle Val Kilmer) , Jim Carrey for Murdoch (definitely!!!!!!!), Hannibal is a tough one. I reckon Clooney is too cheesy, but Bruce Willis could be good, or maybe James Woods. More

I thought this would never come to be, I hoped it wouldn't come to be as it was unbelivably cheesy. Fun but sometimes embarassing and usually very corny. I would also love to see Downey Jr. as Mr T but if this film wants to take itself seriously (well to a degree anyway) how about Micheal Clarke Duncan as Mr.T, Hugh Jackman or Josh Holloway as Face, Hugh or Jim Carrey as Murdock, and De Niro or Pacino as Hannibal (or Arnie as he's already got the cigar smaking thing going) More

I think the A Team should be braught back in game form rather than a movie similar to what they're doing with Ghostbusters. It could work great as a game and the developers could recreate the look of the original characters like they have with Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray etc. I'd much rather have a game based on the original tv series than a film which doesn't bare any resemblance to it whatsoever.

This could turn out to be good but it won't feel like or bare any relation to the original tv series. This movie will be the A - Team by name only. It'll have none of the original actors for a start and that's the very reason why the A - Team was so popular. It was those characters. More specifically it was how the actors played those characters. You just can't replicate that. I realise they're not really trying to. They're taking the central idea and are putting a new spin on it, but do More

I like Carnahan a lot! Smoking Aces was, shall we say, patchy but very slick. Narc is one of my favourite films and it's really edgy. If Carnahan makes A-Team somewhere inbetween the two this could be something really special.
But who could possibly take on these roles? More

Used to watch the A Team as a kid and liked it, but always thought that with all the bullets flying around there never seemed to be anybody killed or any blood spilled. Suppose they didn't want to put you off your tea. Can't really see how this series could work as a movie other than straight to DVD. More
