According to The Hollywood Reporter, the ‘Quantico’ star is in early talks of bagging a role in the Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron starrer ‘Baywatch’. The Paramount film, that will be directed by Seth Gordon is a take on the 1990s hit television series about California lifeguards that starred David Hasselhoff and Pamela Anderson.
The movie centres on the leader of an elite group of lifeguards, who are forced to team up with a young, former Olympian (Efron) to save their beloved bay.
According to the report, ‘scheduling conflicts with the film’s shoot’ and PC’s ‘Quantico’ shoot are being worked out. The actress is in talks of playing the story’s villain.
We wonder if PC showing off her flawless swimsuit bod in the first few episodes of ‘Quantico’ had any role to play while bagging this part.
Or did this scene from ‘Dostana’ do the trick?
