Sports illustrated model kelly rohrbach to fill pamela anderson role in baywatch

Sports Illustrated model Kelly Rohrbach will play CJ Parker, the role formerly filled by Pamela Anderson, in the upcoming Baywatch film.

The news comes once again from Baywatch star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Instagram account. Johnson previously revealed in a similar manner that Alexandra Daddario is co-starring in the film. Though here he and his co-star actually provide something of a slow motion preview with the latter in the appropriate red regalia.

Rohrbach has previously appeared on television in series like Two and a Half Men and Rizzoli & Isles. Baywatch, which is set for release in 2017, will be her first major film appearance.
