The Game in talks to play B.A. Baracus in ‘The A-Team’

Is the rapper The Game set to portray B.A. Baracus in the A-Team movie? Well that’s the word around the interwebs and Blackfilm.com is saying that The Game is the top choice to take up the role made famous by Mr T. We get this from their site:

While casting is underway for the big screen adaptation on the long running TV series, ‘The A-Team,’ Blackfilm.com has exclusively learned that rapper The Game is being considered for the role of B.A Baracus, which was originated by Mr. T on the television show.

Online buzz has it that the role was going to another rapper-turned-actor, Common, but with his recent casting opposite Queen Latifah in ‘Just Right,’ he may not finish filming before ‘The A-Team’ get rolling in August. Other possible candidates have included Ice Cube and mixed martial arts fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson.

Honestly, I think that Rampage Jackson would be a far better choice to play this role than The game. Neither of them can really act but at least Rampage Jackson is HUGE like Mr T was back in the day. What do you guys think about this news?

Thanks to SlashFilm for the heads up.
