With adaptations of old TV shows, the trend has typically been to have an actor from that old show make a cameo. And the A-Team adaptation is no different.
Today it was confirmed that the original Howling Mad Murdock Dwight Schultz would be making a cameo in the upcoming film.
One question that keeps coming up is whether he will have a cameo in the upcoming “A-Team” movie. The people running the site said the following: “We are pleased to inform you all that Dwight has actually already been working in Vancouver, where he has played a cameo role in The A-Team movie.”Schultz has also met Sharlto Copely (District 9), who will play Murdock in the movie, calling the South African actor “brilliant beyond words,” adding that if he is as great as he was during the screen test, “Murdock will be better than ever.”
I like that he stands by the casting choice for his big screen replacement. If anyone knows how the character should have been played it would be Schultz.
Which brings to question if any of the other cast will be making cameo appearances. I could see Dirk Benedict, but with Rampage chanelling Mr.T in BA Baracus, I don’t know that they could bring him in unless he dropped the Mr.T personality and wore a wig or something.
Entertainment Tonight aired a special on set peek at The A-Team and we get a look at Bradley Cooper, Jessica Beil and of course Rampage Jackson.
Rampage Jackson might physically look the part of B.A. Baracus for the upcoming A-Team movie, but I am still hesitant that they cast a non-actor in his role. But the big question was whether Rampage would be channelling Mr.T (who’s own personality isn’t far from BA) or would he make the role his own.

I thought Shartlo Copley was already a done deal as Howling Mad Murdock in the upcoming A-Team, but they have yet to put pen to paper on that one, but we hear news that its as good as done. As well Jessica Biel may be signing on as an Army General and former girlfriend of Face.
What started out as a rumour on an MMA fan blog, has spiraled into some resemblance of fact as the coveted role of Sgt Bosco A Baracus for the new A-Team film adaptation has been handed to MMA meatball Rampage Jackson.
While people were moaning about the impossible story that Megan Fox would be Catwoman, the very same rag that put out that story is now reporting that MMA fighter Quinton Rampage Jackson was signed on to play BA Baracus in The A-Team.
Seems that when you wildly speculate on something based on half a statement, there is just a good chance that despite sounding half right, it also has the astounding possibility of being half wrong. A short while ago Bradley Cooper was announced as playing the smooth con Faceman in the big screen adaptation of the A-Team.
Chris Pine is taking this whole “Boldly go” stuff right to the limit.
