Jessica Biel said making The A-Team movie made her feel “powerful”.
The actress told reporters at the film’s big Hollywood premiere that she had relished throwing herself into the action-packed big screen adaptation of the 80s TV hit.
“[It was] so much fun, I really like doing physical stuff,” explained the star. “It’s so much fun to learn the routines and you learn how to use your body in a way you don’t normally do.”
She laughed: “It’s a powerful feeling at the end of the day!”
The actress said she’d had a blast filming with her co-stars, including Liam Neeson and Bradley Cooper.
“They’re amazing, these guys are incredible collaborators, wonderful people and they just made me feel very welcome,” she revealed.
Jessica also insisted the flick isn’t a boys-only film.
“This is a movie for the girls because women like action too. I play a really cool woman who is empowered and strong and smart and I think someone that women can relate to and be proud of,” she said.
The A Team star Jessica Biel still finds it strange when people stare at her when she is out in public. She has even experimented with different coloured hairpieces, but says she worries people can tell she’s trying to go incognito.
Buzz up!“Sometimes I leave my house in disguise but I usually take it off as I get embarrassed and think someone knows I’m wearing a wig,” she laughed. Jessica hits cinemas this summer with her portrayal of Charisa Sosa in the latest movie remake of The A-Team television series. She has confessed she is not looking forward to the extra recognition it will bring her. The star plays the ex-girlfriend of Bradley Cooper’s character Face in the upcoming movie.
“The weirdest thing about fame is the loss of anonymity, going somewhere and having eyes on you. That’s a strange element,” she said. Other stars of The A-Team include Liam Neeson as Hannibal and Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson as B.A. Baracus.
The actress got on well with her male co-stars and insists she was not intimidated by all the testosterone. “‘Rampage’ is a puppy dog,” she joked.

Taking care of some errands, Jessica Biel was spotted out and about in West Hollywood yesterday afternoon (June 22).
The “A-Team” actress helped her gal pal out when she dropped some papers while walking to her car.
In career news, Jessica told press she’s looking to keep branching out in her movie roles and would love to play a “bad girl.”
“I would love to play a really bad girl – that would be cool. Not just a bad girl but maybe a mentally disabled girl or a crazy person or something really challenging and unexpected. That’s the joy and terrifying element of this business.”

Jessica Biel says she loved shooting guns as she stepped into the shoes of Captain Carissa Sosa for her new flick The A-Team.
“I feel very comfortable with a gun,” The Daily Telegraph quoted her, as saying.
Biel added: “Actually blanks can be quite dangerous because they let off little bits of plastic or whatever it is we were shooting. At the end of the day you’re covered in all of this black stuff that could have gone anywhere, in your eye or whatever.”
The actress, 28, also revealed she never watched the original TV series – which has inspired the film- as a kid.
She said: “I really didn’t watch much TV at all.
“I knew about it (The A-Team). I knew about Mr T and B.A. [B.A. Baracus], I knew about his mohawk and his chains but I didn’t really know about any of the other characters. I was allowed to watch America’s Funniest Home Videos, that’s it. We just didn’t watch a lot of TV in my house, we spent a lot of time outside.”
Hollywood actress Jessica Biel has revealed she is looking for some challenging roles and is desperately wanting to play a bad girl in a movie.
‘I would love to play a really bad girl… that would be cool. Not just a bad girl but maybe a mentally disabled girl or a crazy person or something really challenging and unexpected. That’s the joy and terrifying element of this business,’ femalefirst.co.uk quoted Biel as saying.
The ‘A-Team’ star is also keen to show off her musical skills in movies or a stage production.
‘I’m interested in an organic crossover between music and movies or Broadway (theatre), or movie musical. Something like that is probably a bit more my speed,’ she said.
We never know what to expect with Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake. One minute, we hear they broke up and then the next we see them lovingly holding hands. Then we hear Justin cheated on Jessica. Then they’re back together again. It seems to happen every other month. Now, we’re hearing Jessica Biel desperately wants to start a family with Justin Timberlake. Do you think he’s on the same page as her?
Jessica Biel really wants a family. And that family includes a baby. And one very popular Justin Timberlake. But it doesn’t sounds like Justin is quite ready to settle down and get married just yet. According to a source to HollywoodNews.com, Jessica is OK with that, as long as she and Justin can have a baby! Wow.
The source says, “Jessica is desperate to settle down and have kids. And ideally she’d like it to be with Justin. She’s been on at him for weeks about starting a family… Ideally she’d like to get married, too, but she’s told Justin she’ll happily settle for just a baby.” Do you really want to have a baby with a man who doesn’t want to marry you? We suppose Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are happily unmarried with babies, but that doesn’t mean everyone should settle for it if it’s not what they want.
Would you be excited to learn that Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake were going to have a baby or would you rather see them get married first? After all the turmoil in their relationship, we just worry that Justin isn’t really sure if he wants to be with her. And bringing a baby into the relationship is only going to complicate things.
But still, imagine how adorable a Timberlake/Biel baby would be?

Think it’s easy being a part of a big summer blockbuster like The A-Team? Well you couldn’t be more wrong! Jessica Biel tells our own movie guy Ben Lyons how hard it is to get in?and stay in?shape for these demanding, big-budget action flicks. And also how unromantic those “strategic, plot-driven make-out scenes” are behind the scenes.
Oh, and apparently, the last 300 feet of Mt. Kilimanjaro are a serious pain if you only have one walking stick. Good to know.

Jessica Biel has landed her first Broadway role, according to reports.

According to sources, Jessica Biel is set to tackle The Tall Man in director Pascal Laugier, ‘The Tall Man’. The English language debut feature film from Laugier is said to be a suspense thriller in the vein of early films of M. Night Shyamalan. ‘The Tall Man’ is not a remake of ‘Phantasm’ or the long rumoured sequel, it is being described as “a woman in jeopardy movie with lots of twists”.
It’s certainly a return to Biel’s scream-queen Texas Chainsaw / Blade roots. She’ll play a mother on the trail of her daughter, who has kidnapped by the mysterious figure of The Tall Man.
Laugier is reported to have called it “Panic Room, but outside!”
