Dwayne Johnson has announced
the casting of Showtime's Billions actress Ilfenesh Hadera as his soon to be
love interest in Seth Gordon's (Horrible Bosses 2) upcoming hard-R Baywatch
movie.
"Seeing as she’s
playing my love interest – my strong calloused hands are the ONLY HANDS allowed
to rub suntan oil on her soft supple skin. You hear that [Zac] Efron? Step out of line Zac and she’ll knock your unattractive candy ass into
next week. Mine too," is a small part of what Johnson said in the announcement
that you can read in full below.
Despite her small
body of work, Hadera's credits include roles in NBC's The Blacklist and Chicago
Fire, Spike Lee's Oldboy and Chi-Raq, and HBO's Show Me A Hero.
The upcoming 21 Jump
Street-like take on the iconic 90s TV show also stars Zac Efron as a young
hothead, Alexandra Daddario as Summer Quinn (originally
played by Nicole Eggert), and Kelly Rohrbach as C.J. Parker (originally played by
Pamela Anderson).
Quantico star
Priyanka Chopra is reportedly in talks, but no official word on her casting.
