'The A-Team' Is Up and Running!

Whenever these first images leak, I can't decide whether to say "Awesome, I love the Internet!" or feel sorry that the process of movie making is laid bare in the first weeks of shooting. While you ponder that, you can also gaze at the second unofficial photo from The A-Team, courtesy of Coming Soon. (The first was the van, remember?) Take your time, the first glimpse of the reassembled team comes only once. You probably thought it would contain blazing guns, or grim determination, but our unknown photographer caught the team looking rather sad. Did B.A. Baracus ever take a moment during the show to just sit down and have a good cry? He should have. They were accused of a crime they didn't commit! They were ostracized from their military comrades. If that's not worth a good, manly breakdown, I don't know what is.
Nevertheless, they look pretty good, don't they? I'm strangely transfixed by their hair. Liam Neeson's is an incredible, glowing shade of silver. Bradley Cooper has sacrificed his leonine mane to the service of Faceman, whereas Sharlto Copley was allowed to keep his. It's just now occurred to me that average moviegoers are probably not going to recognize either one of them, and that The A-Team will lead to them being called overnight sensations for the second summer in a row.
A bigger version of the photos is below. I imagine it won't be too long before paparazzi photos capture a leering look at a uniformed Jessica Biel. The A-Team is scheduled to hit theaters June 11, 2010.

Sometimes it surprises me how quickly things move. I mean, wasn't it only like two weeks ago when Sharlto Copley was said to be signing on and here we have an in costume on set photo already. I still have fond memories of watching the A-Team in spanish in college just because there was nothing else to watch in between classes.

Color me pleased. I just hope it will have the big 'prepping for the fight' musical montage where they build a tank out of a garbage truck- that's the best part...

Sharlto Copley is resembling Dirk Benedict more than Dwight Schultz...

The more information that comes from this, the more psyched I am. Can't wait for this one.

*Is looking forward to A-Team* Wanna see what they can do after all these years, comebacks usually suck.

As long as they keep the orchestral rock theme song, and not some techno remake. :)

Techno remake? I was thinking a better way to ruin it would be to jam an ill-fitting sample of the original into a bangin' rap with a stunt-cast "featuring" guitar riff.

that picture looks spot on in so many ways for all three of the standing cast members - including the leather jacket!
