Social media influencer and former LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne posted a series of photos Thursday from the set of Fox’s upcoming “Baywatch” reboot, featuring herself in the series’ signature red one-piece swimsuit.
Dunne, 23, who is making her acting debut in a recurring role as a junior lifeguard, captioned the Instagram and X posts: “Officially on duty … don’t drown! #baywatch.”
The images show Dunne smiling on the Malibu beach with her arms outstretched, running barefoot across the sand in the form-fitting swimsuit and posing on a lifeguard tower while holding a red rescue buoy. One group shot features Dunne alongside cast members, including Brooks Nader, in matching red swimsuits as they stand together on the shore.
The reboot, set to air during the 2026-27 television season, revives the 1990s series that made the slow-motion beach runs and red swimsuits iconic. Dunne joins a cast that includes Stephen Amell, Shay Mitchell, Hassie Harrison, Brooks Nader and others.
Dunne, a 2025 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model and retired NCAA champion who helped LSU win a national title in 2024, announced her casting last week. She has described the role as her first foray into acting.
Production continues on the California coast, with additional behind-the-scenes glimpses expected as filming progresses. Dunne’s latest posts have drawn widespread attention across social media.
