In a move that somehow seems inevitable, original son of the beach David Hasselhoff is joining the "Baywatch" movie.
He made the delighted announcement on a call with co-star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who posted a video of their conversation on his Facebook page on Wednesday night.

"I don't know if the world is ready for both of us," noted Johnson.
"Rockin' the Hoff! I was born ready!" said Hasselhoff, who originated the character of Mitch Buchanan in the TV series, which ran on and off in various incarnations from 1989-2001. Johnson stars in the updated movie version along with Zac Efron.
The film, which started filming on Feb. 22, is set for a 2017 release. Directed by Seth Gordon, the film will also star Alexandra Daddario, Priyanka Chopra, Kelly Rohrbach and Hannibal Buress.
