Why am I excited for Seth Gordon's feature-film adaptation of a television series I've never seen? It's hard to say, but the films cast definitely plays a a big part. The upcoming BAYWATCH reboot will follow a by-the-book and very serious lifeguard (Dwayne Johnson) who is forced to team up with a young rule-flouting hothead (Zac Efron) in order to save their beach from environmental destruction at the hands of an oil tycoon. Production is still ongoing and much of the cast has been offering up their fair share of glimpses behind-the-scenes, but it's safe to say that Dwayne Johnson has been the films most outspoken champion since its inception. Mr. Franchise Viagra himself recently shared a look at his BAYWATCH squad, which includes Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach, Zac Efron, Jon Bass, and Ilfenesh Hadera.
BAYWATCH is set for a May 19, 2017 release.
