Jessica Biel was “one of the guys” on the set of ‘The A-Team’.
Despite being the only girl on set, the 28-year-old brunette beauty – who plays military hardliner Charisa Sosa in the reimagining of the 80s TV show – loved being surrounded by macho guys all day.
Speaking at the UK premiere of the movie at the Empire cinema in London’s Leicester Square, Jessica told BANG Showbiz: “I was pretty much just one of the guys. Our director Joe Carnahan just made everything so comfortable. So I never felt like an intruder coming into a boys club. And the guys are so nice and so kind and so professional and really behaved themselves. We had a really great time.”
The actress – who is currently dating pop heartthrob Justin Timberlake – was also more than happy to shoot her romantic scenes with Bradley Cooper, who plays Templeton ‘Face’ Peck.
She said: “Kissing Bradley Cooper? Well somebody has to do it!”
Jessica was joined on the red carpet by all of the film’s main cast, including Bradley, Liam Neeson, Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson and Sharlto Copley.
Liam – who plays John ‘Hannibal’ Smith in the film – admits he would love to work on a sequel if the opportunity arose.
He said: “Oh I’d love to do a sequel with the guys. They’re a great bunch.”
Other stars to walk the red carpet for the premiere included Katie Price’s husband Alex Reid, ‘X Factor’ runner-up Olly Murs and former boxer Chris Eubank.

The ‘Angels’ hitmaker – who performed with the eventual runner-up of the talent contest on UK TV last Saturday (12.12.09) – told Olly he doesn’t need show boss Simon Cowell to make him a star and has offered to help him get signed.
Speaking at the launch of ‘The Gatwick Factor’, a karaoke competition being held at Britain’s Gatwick airport this week, Olly told BANG Showbiz: “I’m just a normal guy who has come from nowhere, but ever since I finished the show, Robbie’s phoned me every other day and said, ‘How are you, how are you getting on?’
“He’s really concerned about how I go on now, about my future and he wants to help me out.
“Let’s be fair, this guy’s been around for nearly 20 years, he’s got a lot of experience, and yeah, he’s had his highs and his lows like everybody else; but he’s got so much advice to give me and I really do genuinely see him as a friend now.”
Former call centre worker Olly – whose dancing and singing talents have been compared to Robbie’s – has also been offered the chance to go to the US to launch his career Stateside with the ‘Bodies’ singer’s help.
The 25-year-old singer added: “He did offer for me to go to Los Angeles with him. He said, ‘Come over and meet my friends,’ and I think he really sees a good future for me and that’s great.”
