A-TEAM Reboot

80's TV blockbuster THE A-TEAM now comes into the big screen with Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper, Sharlto Copley, Quinton “Rampage” Jackson and Jessica Biel.

this time, the A-Team having hailed from the recent Iraq war become renegades headed by master tactician Col. Hannibal Smith (Neeson) along with Lt. Templeton ‘Faceman’ Peck (Bradley Cooper), Capt. ‘Howling Mad’ Murdock (Sharlto Copley) and Sgt. Bosco ‘B.A.’ Baracus (Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson) are being pursued by the government’s Lt. Sosa (Biel) for a crime framed by an unknown influential military personnel.

this A-Team rendition is very much different to the 80s version where the Alpha Unit was a squad of disgraced Vietnam war vets. "The new team is made up of covert operatives who ran missions during the most recent Iraq war and get hung out to dry for crimes they didn’t commit. This adaptation is more in the spirit of Christopher Nolan’s ‘Batman’ update,” said Joe Carnahan, director of The A-Team, to the LATimes.com.

he also added that this was more set in present times in order for the new audience to relate to it.

A-TEAM will be released in Philippine theaters June 11th. distributed by Warner Bros.
