Fox released the first teaser for the Baywatch reboot, featuring Stephen Amell as Hobie Buchannon now a Baywatch captain, and Jessica Belkin as Charlie, the daughter he didn’t know about, joining the team. The reboot also stars Brooks Nader, Shay Mitchell, Hassie Harrison, Thaddeus LaGrone, Noah Beck, and Livvy Dunne (in a recurring role for Grace), with David Chokachi and Erika Eleniak returning as Cody Madison and Shauni McClain. Produced by Fox Entertainment and Fremantle, with Matt Nix as showrunner and McG directing the premiere, filming runs through July after a $21.1 million California tax credit, and the series is set to premiere on Fox in January.
ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC announced their 2026–27 scripted lineups, including ABC’s Rookie: North; CBS’s Cupertino, Einstein and Eternally Yours; Fox’s Baywatch reboot; and NBC’s Rockford Files, Line of Fire, Sunset P.I. and Newlyweds, plus a photo gallery highlighting the new series.
Fox's Fall 2026 schedule leans into reality and unscripted fare with only two scripted nights, pushing most new dramas to midseason; the Baywatch revival leads midseason alongside The Interrogator, Memory of a Killer S2 and Murder in a Small Town S3, while Sundays pair The Simpsons with Animal Control and Grimsburg. Tuesdays feature Best Medicine and Doc; Fox aims to add a second drama night in midseason and has renewals in place, signaling a shift away from heavy comedy development and a focus on production models geared to unscripted/drama.
Fox’s Fall 2026 schedule leans on a mostly returning slate while reworking Sundays: Animal Control moves into the Animation Domination block and Bob’s Burgers is held for midseason, with Baywatch scheduled to debut in January as part of a broader rollout that includes new dramas The Interrogator and Baywatch alongside Memory of a Killer and Murder In a Small Town; Fox also tees up midseason and 2027‑28 entries like Marriage Market, Highway to Heaven and a Stewie spin‑off to expand its scripted and unscripted lineup.
LA County officials, Venice city leaders and production teams met at Fox Studios to secure the Baywatch reboot’s filming in the region, updating permits and addressing logistics like flexible hours, parking and on-set liaison after a $21.1M California tax credit. Filming continues through July across Venice Beach and other LA locations, with officials emphasizing the project’s importance to the local economy and LA’s status as the entertainment capital.
The Baywatch reboot will continue filming in Venice Beach for the 2026-27 season on Fox after LA Mayor Karen Bass confirmed production will proceed, aided by $21 million in city tax credits. Filming will take place at Venice Beach (outside the Lifeguard Headquarters) and across Los Angeles-area locations including Marina del Rey, Redondo Beach, and Fox’s Century City lot, with Matt Nix as showrunner and a cast led by Stephen Amell.
Baywatch’s Venice Beach production is expanding its footprint as LA officials push to modify the show’s film permit after realizing the space required is larger than originally approved. The California Coastal Commission had approved 27 beach parking spaces and 177 city-lot spaces, but producers now seek roughly double the beach parking and overnight parking options, with nighttime filming expected to be approved. The shoot runs through July 16 and also takes place at other LA-area beaches; officials will maintain public access and wildlife protections, and a 20% discount on city parking was arranged to help facilitate filming.
Brooks Nader defends the Baywatch reboot's casting of influencers, arguing that the modern era allows people to be both actors and social media personalities. She will play lifeguard captain Selene, Hobie Buchannon's rival, as the 12-episode revival features Stephen Amell and a stacked cast, with the series slated to premiere in the 2026/2027 season and amplified by the cast’s diverse voices and social platforms.
Brooks Nader responded to backlash over her lack of acting experience in the upcoming Baywatch reboot, arguing that today’s celebrities are multi-hyphenates who can be both actors and influencers. The new series will blend social-media stars with familiar faces (including Livvy Dunne, Noah Beck, Stephen Amell, Shay Mitchell, Hanna Balicki) as leads, and Fox has ordered 12 episodes for a fall 2026 premiere.
