Grab your Speedos and tanning oil, the Baywatch movie has begun production and we’ve got the first set photos right now on Clevver Newsfeed! After months of hype and casting announcements, the hard-R take on Baywatch is finally under way! Filming for Baywatch is taking place in Miami, because obviously and global movie star and the film’s cast leader, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been doing one of the many things he does best – hyping the heck out of this movie on Instagram and using the platform to make casting announcements for such costars as Alexandra Diddario and Priyanka Chopra and now Johnson has taken to Instagram to release the first bunch of set photos from Day 1 of filming. The first pictures show him and co-star Zac Efron looking chummy as he reveals that his character, “Mitch Buchannon” just gave a speech to Efron’s character, “Matt Brody” about what it means to have manly “Alpha balls,” continuing to say that Efron ad-libbed some “brilliant” responses. Sounds like Efron’s time spent in the comedy realm the past few years has given him a leg up. The two seem like the perfect unlikely duo, but the most baffling part of this picture is why The Rock’s muscles are covered up in long sleeves while Efron’s aren’t. Maybe the Rock’s form will be saved for a slo-mo reveal. Another photo of the two had the lifeguards mugging for the camera from a distinct red and yellow speedboat where we’re guessing this manly alpha conversation went down. Zac Efron tweeted out, “1st day protecting the bay is a wrap. Thx to the big guy. Stay tuned. More adventures ahead. #speedoready #baywatch.” A final photo showed him, Efron, and some of the other cast members looking very pleased with the script at a table read the day prior. Humble as always, the Rock thanked the cast and crew for prepping what he believes will be a massive success of a film. And though there’s a distinct lack in the Hoff and Pamela Anderson in these photos, we think we’re going to be OK with the new casting choices – and hey, there’s always room for a cameo. Joining The Rock, Efron, Alexandra Diddario, and Priyanka Chopra will be model Kelly Rohrbach in the classic CJ Parker role, as well as comedian Hannibal Burress, Jon Bass and Illfenesh Hadera. Baywatch is just one of several projects the recently announced MTV Movie Awards co-host will be filming this year. He’ll follow up Baywatch with a return as “Hobbs” in Fast 8 and then what he’s calling “the big one”, an adaption of the video game Rampage with the same producers as Baywatch and San Andreas. Speaking of San Andreas, it was recently announced that he’ll also star in a sequel to that film, though no official release date has been set. As for Efron, he also has a busy schedule with three films set to arrive in 2016, Neighbors 2, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates and The Disaster Artist directed by James Franco. Baywatch is currently set to arrive in theaters on May 19th, 2017. So, what do you guys think of our first look at Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron in Baywatch? Do you think it will be as funny as The Rock has promised? Share your thoughts in the comments and then click here to check out what movies we can look forward to this summer.
