"The Rock" Patrols The Beach Of "Baywatch"

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson  is set to star in the long-gestating film version of the hit TV Show "Baywatch" at Paramount.says THR .


 In late 2011 "Rescue Me" co-creator Peter Tolan and Jeremy Garelick had reportedly finished their script which goes the way of the 21 Jump Street movie in that it's not a parody but it is a comedy, and is only loosely based on the show even though there will be some nods to the series.

Series stars David Hassehoff and Pamela Anderson have roles written for them if they wish to appear

Reno 911 creators and stars Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant were attached to work on rhe pic at one point as well In June 2012, Justin Timberlake was linked to play a disgraced former Olympic swimmer trying out for the Baywatch crew. But that's never been confirmed

Justin Malen will do a rewrite of the script that Sean Anders and John Morris (We're the Millers) will direct.

Ivan Reitman, Beau Flynn and Tripp Vinson are producing the pic.

How far along the project is, is unknown at this point.
