A-Team movie casting... FAIL!

So far, two stars have been announced to be "in talks" to be in this thing.

It's bad enough that apparently they want Liam Neeson to play Hannibal. Now, nothing against Liam - he's an amazing actor. Absolutely amazing. Incredibly talented, handsome, megawatt star... and not Hannibal Smith. Not by any fucking stretch of the imagination.

Hannibal Smith with a British accent? Hannibal Smith as anything other than a cigar-chomping badass?

FAIL!

But the mega!fail? The epic!fail of epicness?

They want this dude to play Face!

What
The
Fuck?

Dudes... the guy's name is FACE! Don't you think that it might be a good idea to find someone to play him who at least mildly fits that description?

It takes you almost 15 years to get your heads out of your asses and actually make this damn movie that you've been teasing us with all this time, and this is who you want to cast in it? Qui-Gon Jinn and the dude from Hangover?

FAIL! FAIL! FAIL!

ETA: Even the hubby is saying that Face should be a prettyboy, and he should. Dirk Benedict (the only Face there will ever be in my mind, at this rate, just as he is the only Starbuck) as Face is amazingly beautiful to look at. Gorgeous eyes, gorgeous hair, gorgeous smile. This dude? Not even close.

Nerdboy, who's 15, asked me as a joke, "So, are they gonna make Face a girl, too?" I laughed, told him that was a good one.

Now, I'm almost wishing they would. Because at least Katee Sackhoff made sure that Starbuck stayed beautiful.

movie: the a-team, randomness, show: the a-team
