LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
The “A-Team” cast is coming together.
Jessica Biel and “District 9” star Sharlto Copley are in final negotiations to join the action reboot, according to Variety.
Sharlto would reportedly play Captain H.M. “Howling Mad” Murdock, while Jessica is up for the role of an ex-love of Templeton “Faceman” Peck, who is set to be played by Bradley Cooper.
Previously reported members of the cast include Liam Neeson as John “Hannibal” Smith, with UFC fighter Quinton “Rampage” Jackson taking on Mr. T’s role as Sgt. “B.A.” Baracus.
