Baywatch 2 Ocean’s Fury (2026)
Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, Alexandra Daddario, Sydney Sweeney, Kelly Rohrbach
The beach is back in action, and the tide of global threat has dramatically turned. Baywatch 2: Ocean’s Fury takes the beloved Emerald Bay lifeguard squad far beyond their familiar coastline and thrusts them onto the international stage. Legendary Lieutenant Mitch Buchannon (Dwayne Johnson) and the once-reckless, now-seasoned lifeguard Matt Brody (Zac Efron) lead their elite team to the pristine, sun-drenched shores of Hawaii, the exotic setting for the prestigious World Lifeguard Championships.
However, beneath the idyllic surface of paradise lurks a deadly and sophisticated secret. A high-tech eco-terrorist syndicate, operating with chilling precision and resources, seizes control of key infrastructure across the island. Their ultimate, catastrophic objective is to hold the world ransom by threatening to trigger a massive, artificial tsunami that could devastate coastal regions globally. This threat quickly escalates from a local problem to an international crisis.
Dwayne Johnson, with his formidable presence and imposing physique, brings the necessary muscle, while Zac Efron’s Matt Brody provides the slick charm and surprising wit. Yet, they rapidly realize that this mission will demand far more than their signature slow-motion running prowess to survive this massive, geopolitical wave. The team is bolstered by the return of the stunning and sharp-witted Summer Quinn (Alexandra Daddario), whose aquatic skills are unmatched. They also face a fierce new rival captain, played by the dynamic Sydney Sweeney, whose initial competitive friction with the Baywatch crew is quickly replaced by a necessity for teamwork when the true nature of the threat emerges.
Trading their traditional rescue buoys for serious, heavy artillery and advanced tactical gear, the Baywatch team must adapt instantly from saving swimmers to thwarting global terrorism. The movie promises to be packed with explosive, high-speed jet-ski chases across open water, intense underwater combat sequences, and the brand’s signature raunchy, adult-oriented humor. Ocean’s Fury definitively proves that one does not require an official badge or formal law enforcement authority to save the world; all that is truly needed is an iconic red swimsuit, an unyielding dedication to duty, and perhaps, a generous supply of baby oil.
