Fried chicken. The Internet. The music of Pat Benatar.
Every
so often the world hits on an idea that just makes you stand up and go “Yes! That
is correct! We need more of that!”
This is
one of those times. I'm so excited about this, I just had to share it.
Oh I don’t
know, about a year and a half ago I snarkily reported to you good folks about a
big screen remake/reimagining thing of the classic TV series “Baywatch.”
Back
then I told you Peter Tolan, creator of “Rescue Me” had just finished work on
the script and everyone was just waiting for Paramount to make a move.
Well, a
move has been made.
Ladies

William “Bill” Hader!!! True f’n
story if you’ll allow me to work blue for a minute.
Yes, the best thing to happen to “Saturday
Night Live” since some kid named Ferrell, Bill Hader will step into Hasselhoff’s
trunks and chest hair in the film that’s being described as a “funnier remake
akin to ’21 Jump Street’” according to CinemaBlend.
“Reno 911” veteran Ben Garant is
slated to direct he film. No word on whether or not Tolan’s script is still at
play or if any rewrites are in store. Filming is set to begin in April if all
goes according to plan.
Either way, it’s safe to say we
should all be very, very excited about this. Very.
