If you remade the A-Team, who would you cast?

With the current trend for remaking classic 80s TV shows, we got into a debate today at the cinema bar over who would be ideal cast into a remake of the A-Team.

My lineup was:
Hannibal - Really couldn't fit anyone in here
BA - Tom 'Tiny'/'zeus' Lister
Murdock - Jim Carrey
Face - John Cusack



My list is a mess. Problem is, these parts are *really* hard to cast for. So shoot... name your 4

PS surely someone has the QWFix Team Image...

I hate having Carey there, but I just can't picture another actor capable of doing Murdock.

Also Bale isn't proven in any kind of comedy situation of note, so Cusack gets my vote instead.

Haha wait.. hannibal could be Dan Ackroyd. no... seriously. Stop walking away...

You think Leslie Neilson would work? I mean, he's done military comedy roles but always as an absurd bungler, which isn't Hannibal at all.

Jack Palance would have made a great Hannibal when he was a little younger.

Owen Wilson for Face.

Ben Stiller for Murdoc

Cameron Diaz for BA

And Anthony Hopkins should play Hannibal, something tells me he'd be able to pull it off.
