WATCH: Zac Efron and The Rock take on ridiculous fitness challenges in new Baywatch trailer

The two of them are in decent shape, to be fair.

Baywatch fans will return to the heady days of the mid-90s when a new movie version of the TV show is released in May of this year.

Old regulars such as David ‘The Hoff’ Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson will feature in cameo roles, but the spotlight in the movie will belong to Zac Efron and Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

We’ve already seen in a previous trailer that there will be plenty of action, humour and sex appeal when Baywatch does hit the big screen and in the latest one, we can see just what the two main stars – both renowned for their impressive shape – are capable of.

Lifting tyres, multiple chin-ups and even carrying two refrigerators (each!) at the same time, it’s clear that if these fellas don’t miss too many days in the gym.

The rest of the trailer looks pretty decent too; it might be a little corny and cheesy for some people’s tastes, but this could be one of the surprise hits of 2017.

Baywatch is released in Irish cinemas on May 12, 2017.
