Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Baywatch is a 2017 comedy film starring Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron, based on the television series of the same name.Reimagined as an Affectionate Parody of the original Baywatch series (similarly to the Jump Street films' treatment of their own source material), this film pokes fun at its premise while also embracing it — and provides lots of eye candy for both the male and female gaze.Mitch Buchannon (Johnson) is a no-nonsense lifeguard who is forced to work with cocky Olympian Matt Brody (Efron) when evil local club owner Victoria Leeds (Priyanka Chopra) threatens to overrun the beach with crime and corruption.Alexandra Daddario, Ilfenesh Hadera, and newcomers Kelly Rohrbach and Jon Bass also star, while original Baywatch stars David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson appear in cameo roles.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })While a sequel was planned before release, the poor box office killed those plans and, according to the current license owners, almost took the entire Baywatch brand with it, including freezing discussions of a potential television reboot.

Actor Allusion: One of the nicknames Mitch gives Brody is "High School Musical", which was Zac Efron's first major role.

Adaptational Curves: Several examples: The film's version of Mitch Buchannon is considerably more muscular, as befits someone played by Dwayne Johnson. Ilfenesh Hadera's Stephanie Holden and Alexandra Daddario's Summer Quinn are considerably more voluptuous than the versions from the TV show played by Alexandra Paul and Nicole Eggert respectively.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })
