Television production company Fremantle is developing a reboot of the classic beach drama series Baywatch. According to Deadline, there are currently no creatives attached to the remake.
The original Baywatch came out in 1989. It ran for 11 years and 13 seasons. Created by Michael Berk, Douglas Schwartz and Gregory J. Bonann, the series followed a group of lifeguards who patrolled the beaches of LA County.
The show was cancelled after its first season run on NBC but was revived after the producers bought the rights and produced a syndicated version.
Notably, Baywatch made David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson global stars. It also featured David Charvet, Yasmine Bleeth and Nicole Eggert among others.
