7 actresses being tested for Baywatch now
share
Alexandra Daddario for the win.
shareThey should put all seven of them in the movie.
shareI have my fingers crossed for Nina Dobrev. Stunning girl and she has a great body from years of gymnastics. She would look incredible in the Baywatch swimsuit.
shareToo late. They've cast Daddario already in the role Dobrev was likely in contention for.
According to comicbook.com, in addition to Daddario's role, they're casting for two other ladies: CJ, the Pam Anderson role who will likely be played by a buxom blonde which Dobrev is not, and Stephanie, an older lifeguard who is the Rock's love interest which makes Dobrev too young.

Carla Gugino for Stephanie?
shareMight as well. Wherever the Rock is, Gugino isn't far behind.
shareIf the comicbook.com summary of the main characters is correct, there are three principal female characters. Daddario is heading the bunch as Summer. CJ is likely to be played by a buxom white blonde, i.e. an Upton, Decker or McKinney. That means that if Carla is Stephanie, they might get some flack about casting all whites in their principal female parts.
Maybe they could look at Rosario Dawson for Stephanie.
But if Rock wanted to cast Carla again, he could have her as the evil oil tycoon.
Yeah, I can see the above being a bit tricky, considering they can be selective in terms of who they go for in that third role. I like Dawson but wouldn't mind seeing someone else get a chance.
But if Rock wanted to cast Carla again, he could have her as the evil oil tycoon.
After Top Five, Dawson has certainly shown the formidability to stand up to The Rock. And she's worked with him before on The Rundown, just like Alexandra did on San Andreas.
shareShe's fugly so no.
shareDawson is a tad too old now to be playing a Baywatch babe.
shareIf Dawson is too old then so is Gugino.
Bear in mind that the role we want them for is a veteran lifeguard so she's allowed to be older. And Dawson is 7 years older than Daddario and 7 years younger than Rock.
Well not sure if age is the main factor as while she's a good looking woman she's not exactly buxom enough for the role.
