Video: First ‘Baywatch’ Trailer Has All the Slow-Motion Running You Could Ask For
Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, and Alexandra Daddario are the lifeguards on duty in the 2017 remake
December 8, 2016
Paramount Pictures made a splash on Thursday by dropping the first official “Baywatch” trailer.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Zac Efron, and Alexandra Daddario star in the upcoming action-comedy remake, adapted from the popular ’90s TV show about attractive young lifeguards who rescue swimmers by day and hook-up with each another by night.
The trailer is equal parts action, comedy, and “Baywatch’s” trademark slow-motion beach running. Unfortunately, we don’t yet see past Stern Show guests David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson, who starred on the long-running NBC drama and are expected to appear in the film.
Check out the trailer (above), which may even be inspiration to pull out your old tapes of “Son of the Beach,” the early-2000s FX spoof of “Baywatch” which Stern Show fans will remember Howard executive produced.
“Baywatch” paddles into theaters May 2017.
