Baywatch Reboot Kicks Off with New Stars

0:00I'm Cory with the story, and this is your Entertainment Pulse. Entertainment and celebrity news today. Filming has kicked off for the Baywatch reboot on a sunny beach near Venice in Los Angeles. Newcomer Jessica Belkin, 23, slipped into the classic red one-piece swimsuit for the first time, joining her co-star Noah Beck, 24, who went shirtless in red shrunks. The pair ran along the shore, splashed in the water, and recreated those high-energy lifeguard scenes. Other fresh faces are lining up for the show. Sports-illustrated model Brooks Nader confirmed her role as Selene, captain of the Zuma Beach Lifeguards, with an excited Instagram post showing her. Flipping through the script, she's joined by Shea Mitchell and Hassy Harrison, while Steven Amell takes the lead as Hobie Buchanan. Fans are buzzing about this revival of the 90s hit that ran from 1989 to 2001. Despite bad reviews from critics, the original became the world's most washed show, launching stars like David Hasselhoff as Mitch Buchanan, and Pamela Anderson as CJ Parker.

1:05It even shifted to Hawaii for its final two years, featuring a young Jason Momoa. The new version picks up with Hobie as a Baywatch captain, just like his dad, until his daughter Charlie shows up to carry on the family tradition. Fox plans 12 episodes packed with action and beach drama. Fox Entertainment President Michael Thorn called it a modern comeback for the franchise that defined beach culture. With rising stars and big spectacle, it's set to bring the California vibe to a new generation of viewers. Support for this DNN episode comes from our sponsor. Your pillow just got smarter.
