Fox is doubling down on lifeguard dramas with a significant script plus penalty commitment to "Baywatch", a reboot of the classic beach series. The new iteration is a co-production between Fremantle and Fox Entertainment.
The new “action-packed” version is written by Lara Olsen who will serve as showrunner. In it, daring ocean rescues, pristine beaches, and iconic red bathing suits are back, along with a whole new generation of Baywatch lifeguards, who navigate complicated, messy personal lives.
Olsen executive produces with "Baywatch" creators Michael Berk, Greg Bonann and Doug Schwartz.
