Germans, men of all ages, you will be pleased to note that the rumors are true. “Baywatch” is bounding, in slow motion, onto the big screen.

No word on whether Herr Hassellmeister or Pamazon Anderson will be returning, but Variety reports that director Jeremy Garelick plans to bring the comedy back to the beach.

"It felt like the template to do a movie that was similar to 'Stripes' and 'Police Academy,' the comedies I loved growing up," Garelick said. "Rather than trying to pitch the tone, I figured it would be easier to write the first act to convey who these characters were," Garelick said.

According to Variety the “script now focuses on two unlikely lifeguard candidates trying to catch on alongside the buff bodies that will be as abundant in the film as they were in the TV series.”

Thank god, Garelick had me worried for a minute. I thought he might actually be spending time on the story, when all he really needs to worry about is setting up a good running shot.

What do you think?
