The Dreams star has confirmed he’s auditioned for the iconic part, made famous by Mr. T, and he’s facing an anxious wait to see if he’s landed the job.
The hip-hop star is keeping himself busy touring and working on his next album Red – but admits its release all depends on the success of his fledgling acting career.
The Game says, “It depends on this A-Team movie project I’m up for. If that doesn’t happen it (the album) will be (released) in December.”
However, The Game is doing all he can to ensure he edges out his competitors – he’s piling on the pounds to convince director Joe Carnahan he’s the right man for the role.
He adds, “I’m looking forward to working with the director Joe Carnahan and Liam Neeson, who’s playing Hannibal. I gotta gain 35 pounds before December so; I’m on my regimen and training. I’m gonna go from 225 to 260 over the next couple months and it’s an exciting process for me, so it’s on!”

The Game has kept his distance from the public eye for a few months, but songs of his have recently leaked. The California based emcee has reached out to fans with some leaked tracks and new collaborations. He recently spoke about this and more during an interview with MTV.com.
The Game, a former G-Unit affiliate, is now working with one of 50 Cent’s biggest enemies, Rick Ross. Still, don’t expect this to bring up old beef between “Hurricane” and Fif.
“Hey, man, me and Ross working together, it ain’t got nothing to do with me and 50,” he told MTV. “I ain’t even on 50′s head like that no more. You notice when 50 Cent put his little dis song out, he left me out. You notice when 50 talks, he leaves me out of that shit. I didn’t pick no sides in the 50 Cent/Rick Ross beef. I’m about hip-hop these days. Rick Ross is my nigga. 50 used to be my nigga.”
The Game has also announced that he has started working on a new album. This one will be titled The R.E.D. Album and he currently has beats from Timbaland and Drumma Boy [click to read] for the new disc.
“Bang Along,” a leaked track, hit the net recently. The Game says he leaked it to get people excited for his new work.
“Niggas like that, man,” he added. “I threw that out as a little frisbee.”
