The big-screen remake of the popular TV series has just started production. Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron have released a first look at Paramount’s Baywatch movie, posting pictures on social media from the set.
“#BAYWATCH Day 1. My character ‘Mitch Buchannon’ just gave @zacefron‘s character ‘Matt Brody’ the all important beach speech about what it means to have manly ‘Alpha balls,’” Johnson captioned a photo he posted to Instagram. “Zac’s ad-libbed responses were brilliant! Talented and great dude. World get ready to have some fun, ’cause the beach will never be the same again. #OnSet #BAYWATCH#Day1#AlphaBalls#NowWhoNeedsMouthToMouth?”
The pictures show Zac Efron and Dwayne Johnson on a dock wearing lifeguard outfits. Dwayne Johnson is seen with Ilfenesh Hadera. “Our 5’11 talented, bad ass smokestack @ilfenator dominating the role of ‘Stephanie Holden’ and some big bald, inked up brown dude giving the gangsta point.#OnSet#Baywatch #BaeWatch couldn’t resist,” he captioned.
“First day protecting the bay is a wrap,” wrote Efron. “Thanks to the big guy (Dwayne). Stay tuned. More adventures lie ahead. ?#?speedoready? ?#?baywatch?.”
