Baywatch
Dwayne Johnson was back on the stage, this time introducing his cast members, Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach, Zac Efron, Jon Bass and Priyanka Chopra. They shared a new version of the trailer (sorry, we can’t show you this one yet, but it’ll be out soon), which they described as not quite a red band, not quite a green band, but rather a Fuchsia Band: Friggin’ Unbelievable Preview Rating (but they used another F word…use your imagination). Tickets for Baywatch go on sale April 14. But don’t worry, we’ll be in your feed to remind you day of.
When asked about what it means to “Be Baywatch,” Zac Efron said, “Being Baywatch is an attitude. It’s being the best.” Alexandra Daddario chimed in with, “Being Baywatch is about challenging each other to be the absolute best all of the time.” Who knew this self-described crazy, sexy R-rated comedy would also be so inspiring? We’re ready for some funny inspiration, are you? Keep an eye out for the fuchsia band trailer. It’ll pop up in your timeline soon. Baywatch opens on May 26.
