Livvy Dunne's 'Baywatch' Reboot TV Show Premiere Timeline Revealed by Fox

The timeline for the premiere of the Baywatch reboot, which contains a cast that includes former LSU gymnast Livvy Dunne, has been revealed.

Fox television network president Michael Thorn explained why the planned launch for the show is in Jan. 2027 on Sunday.

"We have a rich history of launching series midseason, we just did it most recently with 'Best Medicine' and 'Memory of a Killer' and 'Doc' before that; it goes all the way back to 'Empire' and the '9-1-1s' and 'The Resident,'" Thorn told reporters, per Nellie Andreeva of Deadline. "Obviously, 'Baywatch' is a huge, huge priority for us, and we think we have a great opportunity to set the show up for success there."

Dunne confirmed that she was joining the show's cast on March 12 and will be making her acting debut.

Andreeva previously reported that Dunne will play the recurring role of Grace, a "highly enthusiastic" junior lifeguard.

Dunne was previously part of LSU's gymnastics team, helping the Tigers win an NCAA team title in 2024 before retiring in April 2025.
