Ice Cube has claimed that he would love to play B.A. Baracus in the new A-Team movie.

The rapper-turned-actor has said that he would be interested in the role if it's true that John Singleton is directing the film.

Mr T played Baracus in the original popular '80s TV series.

When asked whether he would take the part, Cube told Blackfilm: "Hell yeah, especially with John Singleton directing.

"I wouldn't try to duplicate what Mr. T did, but I will have the same impact on you when you were little watching the TV show.

"I'm going to bring my own flavour to it and I am going to do the mohawk."
