The question of who will play Mr. T's role of B.A. Baracus in the upcoming "A Team" film appears to have been settled, as Fox is reportedly interested in casting rapper/actor Common.
When John Singleton was attached to helm the project last year, there were rumors that his preference for the mohawked role was Tyrese Gibson, whom he had directed in "Baby Boy" and "2 Fast 2 Furious."
Ice Cube, who starred in Singleton's first film "Boyz n the Hood," was also said to be actively pursuing the role.
But now that Joe Carnahan has taken over the director's chair, word has it that he's looking to bring in his own man Common, who starred in his film "Smokin' Aces."
The rapper/actor tells Moviehole.com that the role would be "so exciting."
