UFC's Rampage Beat Out 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Common, and The Game for 'The A-Team' Role

Ice Cube, 50 Cent, Common and The Game all wanted to take over Mr.T’s role for the big screen version of The A-Team. But when the dust settled none of the four rapper/actors got the role. “B.A. Baracus” will be played by Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Quinton "Rampage" Jackson. In fact, Jackson’s already on the set (up in Canada) shooting the film.


The A-Team movie follows the same basic concept as the 1980s TV series: war heroes get framed for a crime, escape from military prison and become heroes for hire while trying to clear their names. On TV, the A-Team were Vietnam vets, but in the movie they’re ex-Iraq War soldiers.

I think Rampage is the BEST fit to play Baracus' role!
