David Hasselhoff joins Dwayne Johnson’s ‘Baywatch’ movie

The Hoff is meeting The Rock. David Hasselhoff will be participating in the Baywatch movie with Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron.

Johnson, who has been chronicling every step of making the movie on social media, posted a video on Facebook, showing himself talking to Hasselhoff via FaceTime. “I was born ready,” The Hoff says in the clip.

In the caption for the video, The Rock wrote that Hasselhoff has been a big supporter of the film, even though he knows it will be an R-rated mix of Anchorman and Avengers.

“Hoff's a cool dude who's down to have fun and here's the best part,” Johnson wrote. “He's been training his ass off and gotten in the best shape he's been in in years!”

Production on the film started late last month and will co-star Zac Efron, Ilfenesh Hadera, Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach and Priyanka Chopra. Pamela Anderson revealed that she was asked to make a cameo, but hasn’t said yes yet.

Baywatch hits theaters on May 19, 2017.
