TheWrap: [BHADE] to walk in David Hasselhoff's sandals in Paramount's [BAYWT] adaptation, aiming for an April start date...
Bill Hader will star in Paramount’s film reboot of “Baywatch,” the 1990s TV show starring David Hasselhoff as the leader of a team of lifeguards.
Hasselhoff will make a cameo in the film, which like “Reno 911!” will take a faux serious tone to an absurd subject. Just as “Reno” parodied the over-dramatization of shows like “Cops,” this will parody the 1990s hit TV show set on the beach.
Yes, Pamela Anderson also will have a cameo.
The plot follows lifeguards exploring an oil rig of the Malibu coast that turns out to be a meth lab. Jeremy Garelick and Peter Tolan both wrote drafts of the script, which Ben Garant has revisited.
"They're so excited they made us shoot a trailer and the script isn't even done,” Ben Garant said.
Ben Garant said they are aiming for an April start date.

it's Baywatch, low is the only place to aim, if you wanna hit the target.... {nm} tatoufan on Jan 22, 12:38
ATEAM, Dukes of Hazzard, Starsky & Hutch went A-list. {nm} Antibody on Jan 22, 12:48
BHADE, imo, should have been A-list a few years back. He's a great comedic character actor. {nm} chosenone2oo5 on Jan 22, 16:18
