Paramount Pictures has narrowed down their search for the female lead in
the upcoming movie based on global hit TV show, Baywatch, to seven names.
Per Deadline, Ashley Benson (Pretty Little Liars), Nina Dobrev (Vampire
Diaries), Alexandra Shipp (X-Men: Apocalypse), Alexandra Daddario (True
Detective), Bianca Santos (The Duff), Shelley Hennig (Teen Wolf), and Denyse
Tontz (Big Time Rush), have all landed themselves on the studio's shortlist of
actresses that will test for the lead role.
Deadline also points out that it is entirely possible that Paramount could
expand their search, as well as offering some of the actresses other roles in
the long-gestating project.
Dwayne Johnson and Zac Effron have already boarded the R-rated comedy,
which will be directed by Seth Gordon (Horrible Bosses) and follow the unlikely
partnership of a lifeguard (Johnson) and reckless beach boy (Effron), who
team-up to stop an oil tycoon from destroying their beach.
Production is expected to start early next year.
