Dwayne Johnson ("Furious 7") and Zac Efron ("Neighbors") star in the lead roles as a very serious lifeguard and his young hothead protégé who struggle to save their California beach from an oil tycoon who threatens to destroy it. The film is said to be an R-rated comedy that will introduce the characters of the 1992 TV series to a new generation.
Daddario is set to star as Summer Quinn, the role previously played by Nicole Eggert between 1992 and 1996. The contenders that the actress beat out include Nina Dobrev and Ashley Benson. Johnson and Daddario previously played father and daughter in the disaster flick "San Andreas". The Rock, who announced Daddario's casting via Instagram, also hinted at the casting of C.J. Parker (below), a character that was played by Pamela Anderson in the TV series.
