'Baywatch' Being Reworked Into a Comedy

7 July 2009 1:16 AM, PDT | From Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news

A big screen version of the popular '90s TV series "Baywatch" is happening, and Paramount Pictures has set it up to be a comedy movie. Bringing up to the surface the story was Variety which further claimed that the studio picked up scribe Jeremy Garelick to rewrite the original script written by Jay Scherick and David Ronn which was reportedly heavy on action.

Explaining his vision for the comedy, Garelick shared, "It felt like the template to do a movie that was similar to 'Stripes' and 'Police Academy,' the comedies I loved growing up. Rather than trying to pitch the tone, I figured it would be easier to write the first act to convey who these characters were." Beside rewriting the script, the man who recently did an uncredited rewrite on "The Hangover" and is known for his work in "The Break-Up", will also make his directorial debut with this movie.

Anyway, long story short: Paramount has brought on Jeremy Garelick, he of, erm, The Break-Up fame, to write and direct the adaptation of The Hoff’s finest hour, otherwise known as the show about lifeguards that launched the careers of ten of its biggest stars: Pamela Anderson, Yasmine Bleeth, Erika Eleniak, Donna D’Errico and Tracy Bingham.Garelick is hot property in Hollywood right now – he did a polish on The Hangover, which has made

Baywatch Movie Still Alive

6 July 2009 10:09 PM, PDT | From TheMovingPicture.net | See recent TheMovingPicture news

Back in 2004 DreamWorks announced plans to bring Baywatch, the cheesy David Hasselhof television series, to the big screen. The project has never materialized but is still alive and kicking, and not dead as many had probably hoped. It is now set up at Paramount and the studio has signed on Jeremy Garelick (The Break Up) to rewrite and direct the film based on the syndicated series about lifeguards who patrol a beach in California. Jay Scherick (Norbit) and David Ronn (Guess Who) penned the original screenplay, which was reportedly heavy on action. Garelick has turned it into a broad comedy, centering on two unlikely lifeguard candidates trying to learn the ropes alongside the buff bodies that will be as abundant in the film as they were in the TV series. The film will mark Garelick's directing debut. The scribe, who most recently did an uncredited rewrite of The Hangover with Todd Phillips,
