Back when I was 9 years old, the A-Team was awesome man, representing a fantastic Saturday afternoon escape from the clutches of a mother hell-bent on dragging me around the town centre to purchase ill-fitting school shoes, the adventures of Hannibal, Face, Murdoch and B.A happily helped form my entire view of the Midwest, a mythical land full of villainous landowners, oppressed townsfolk, and non-murderous mercenaries who would happily defend your property and your honour –even if doing so involved building a tank that launched cabbages at heavily armed brigands. Over the years, I’ve caught a few reruns and realised that like its contemporaries, it’s actually slow, disastrously plotted mix of improbable scenarios, comedy villains and cigar-chomping, milk-drinking catchphrases. Luckily, the movie is exactly the same.

Looks like Joe Carnahan isn’t one to mess with tradition, at least if these new shots from his upcoming A-Team remake are anything to go by.
No doubt sending Justin Lee Collins into fanboy apoplexy and annoying the hell out of the still-not-cameoing Mr.T, the red striped GMC Van was caught on film in British Columbia this weekend, and was apparently too iconic to be given a Knightrider stlye makeover.
The movie is due to hit screens next June, with Entertainment Weekly reporting that Patrick Wilson is the latest to Join Liam Neeson et al, playing a CIA operative pursuing the team.
