According to Variety, the Irish actor is in talks with 20th Century Fox to step into George Peppard's shoes for Joe Carnahan's action film.
Bradley Cooper has also been confirmed as in "early talks" to portray Lt. Templeton "Faceman" Peck, a role originated by Dirk Benedict in the '80s series. The Hangover star was linked with the part last month but later denied his involvement.
The A-Team ran for five season on ABC and starred Peppard, Benedict, Dwight Schultz and Mr. T as a group of former US Army Special Forces who become soldiers of fortune.
The movie begins production this August for a June 11, 2010 release.
