Who should play B.A. Baracus?

A big-screen version of the '80s TV series "The A-Team" is in the works. So far Liam Neeson has been cast as Hannibal (the George Peppard role), Bradley Cooper has been cast as Faceman (the Dirk Benedict role), Woody Harrelson is set to play Murdock (the Dwight Schultz role). But Mr. T's role as B.A. Baracus has yet to be cast.

    Omar Epps from "House." It would be a stretch that might break him out of the typecast of Forman, and it would be something new for the rol

    Warren Sapp - He's big, he's articulate - might be a great role to get his acting chops refined!

        I agree with Ving Rhames for BA. But Liam Neeson for Hannibal? He's a great actor but I don't think it's a good fit at all.

            Kimbo Slice. Mr. T was a bouncer before he was an actor. Kimbo has that street cred and he's truly frightening.

              Why not turn the role on it's head (ala Battlestar Gallictica & cast a black woman, like Wanda Sikes in the role?
