Dirk Benedict has just announced to dirkbenedickcentral.com that he will have a cameo appearance in Joe Carnahan's feature film adaptation of The A-Team. Dirk starred as Templeton "Faceman" Peck, but is better known as simply "Face" the well dressed and smooth talking member of The A-Team. He will be joining his co-star Dwight Schultz who announced his cameo appearance earlier this month.
As for the rest of the cast? Sadly George Peppard, who played John 'Hannibal' Smith in the original series passed away back in 1994. Mr. T, after surviving cancer is still an active actor, most recently playing the voice of Earl Devereaux in Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, but when spotted earlier this month, he did not let on that any cameo appearances were in the works.
If you can not wait for the movie to see Faceman again and you are a UK native you can catch Dirk in the roll of Columbo at the Middleground Theatre Company. The play, written in 1962 starred Thomas Mitchell and Joseph Cotten and later became the "pilot" for the TV series "Columbo" starring Peter Falk.
