March 1, 2002 — Chris Carlisle, the development head for Top Cow, was kind enough to give us an update on the status of The A-Team movie.
According to Chris, the script is done, but it needs more work. As for the feel that they are going for, Chris responded, "[w]hile it's clear the A-Team as conceived and executed on TV was very
successful on a comedic level, we envision the film to have a little more
weight dramatically. Lethal Weapon would be a good model: a story that is
dramatic and exciting with great action, but watching the characters is
still a tremendous amount of fun from moment to moment." Nothing has been decided, in terms of the cast. Whether you will see the original cast or not, Chris said, "I think there is certainly room for the original casts' involvement,
although no formal discussions have been initiated on that front. Still a
bit early." No release date has been set yet.
We would like to thank Chris Carlisle for giving us an update.
