The A-Team movie: Dwight Schultz films cameo

Old Murdock meets new Murdock as The A-Team welcomes back an original star…
Published on Nov 10, 2009
Now this is just the kind of plan that we like. We've been a bit unsure about the currently filming A-Team movie, and, if anything, we've been giving it the benefit of our doubt given that Narc director Joe Carnahan is behind the camera calling the shots. We did think that things had been strangely quiet on the cameo front, however, given that it seems to be the Hollywood law that old stars of TV shows must pop up in big screen versions of said programmes.
Our worries have, however, been tempered by the news that Murdock himself, Mr Dwight Schultz, has confirmed that he's now filmed a cameo for the new film. District 9's Sharlto Copley is taking on the role of Murdock in the movie, yet as the official Dwight Schultz fansite has now announced, "We are pleased to inform you all that Dwight has actually already been working in Vancouver, where he has played a cameo role in The A-Team movie."
This is, of course, good news, and it's good news that leads to further questions. What about a role for the original Face? Dirk Benedict is surely a must, and even more so is an appearance by the king of them all, Mr T?
They'd be a fool to leave him out, surely?
