David Hasselhoff Is Back in 'Baywatch' Mode With Dwayne Johnson

A mere three weeks after Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson confirmed that David Hasselhoff will make an appearance in the upcoming Baywatch movie, the Hoff himself has shown up on-set.

The actor formerly known as Mitch Buchanan tweeted a couple of photos of himself in his Baywatch swim trunks, including one with the actor who will play Mitch Buchanan in the new Baywatch. That would be The Rock, who also Instagrammed the above shot of he and Hasselhoff with the caption: “In the 80’s he drove the coolest car on the planet. In the 90’s he dominated slo-mo running on the beach with the most successful TV show of all time. And today he’s simply

The f'n man.

Phenomenal day on set with my brotha - the OG himself, David Hasselhoff - the man who started it all. Great dude with a great sense of humor. AND he trained his ass off for our movie.???? #RockAndHoff #OnSet#BAYWATCH MAY 2017.”

Hasselhoff also shared a group shot in which it’s pretty clear that co-star Zac Efron is giving the Hoff a run for his sun tan money.

It’s unclear whether Hasselhoff’s role is more of a cameo or something larger, but surely it will involve some quality slow-mo beach running and throwing of intense glances like this one.

Baywatch is currently shooting in Savannah and Tybee Island, Ga., and is due in theaters May 19, 2017.
