The cast also includes Stephen Amell in the lead role alongside series regulars Jessica Belkin as Charlie Vale, Hassie Harrison as Nat, Thaddeus LaGrone as Brad, and Brooks Nader as Selene, the sharp-tongued Captain of the Zuma Beach lifeguards. David Chokachi, in a recurring role, returns as Cody Madison, from the original series, who now runs The Shoreline, the unofficially official Baywatch bar and grill.
The new "Baywatch" series is scheduled to launch as part of the network’s 2026-27 season and has received a 12-episode straight-to-series order. Production is slated to begin shooting this spring on Venice Beach and on the Fox Studio Lot in Century City. McG will direct the series premiere episode.
The story follows wild child Hobie Buchannon (Amell) from the original series, who is now a Baywatch Captain, following in the footsteps of his legendary father, Mitch (David Hasselhoff). Hobie's world is turned upside down when Charlie (Belkin), the daughter he never knew, shows up on his doorstep, eager to carry on the Buchannon family legacy and become a Baywatch lifeguard alongside her dad.
Fox has revealed that the show will feature "adrenaline-fueled rescues, tangled relationships, complicated chemistry and beachside heroics that defined the original — now with a new cast donning the show's signature red swimsuits, contemporary trappings, tensions and challenges and a renewed mission to protect Southern California's shoreline".
The "Baywatch" reboot is co-produced by Fox Entertainment and Fremantle with Nix ("Burn Notice", "The Gifted") serving as showrunner and executive producer alongside executive producers McG, Michael Berk, Greg Bonann, Doug Schwartz, Dante Di Loreto and Mike Horowitz. Fox Entertainment Global holds all domestic distribution rights, and Fremantle manages all international sales.
