4. The Rock To Star In Baywatch Movie
Yes, you read that headline correctly, and no, this is not an April Fool's joke. Early this week a
rumor broke out that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would be starring in a new Baywatch movie, and then the news was confirmed by the wrestler-turned-movie star himself. https://twitter.com/TheRock/status/517862478966177794 What's perhaps most intriguing about this news, besides the bizarre nature of the news itself, is the #RatedR hashtag. Will we be seeing a version of Baywatch akin to something like Pain & Gain or raunchy comedies like 21 Jump Street or Neighbors? That may actually be a version of the corny beach-centric television series we'd like to see. Comedy writer Justin Malen is rewriting the script that originated from Reno 911 co-creator Robert Ben Garant, while the directing duo behind Horrible Bosses 2 and We're the Millers are on directing duties.
