Dwayne Johnson tossed a tidal wave of joy across the Internet this morning when he released the first teaser for his upcoming Baywatch reboot.

The short footage featured The Rock emerging from the violent waters, and Notorious B.I.G. blaring in the background.
Now Zac Efron, The Rock’s co-star in the film, has revealed another 20-second Baywatch clip. While different from the first footage, the short segment is still meant to build excitement around the trailer dropping tomorrow.
The video sees Efron’s character Matt Brody report for his first day of duty with Baywatch. The Rock welcomes him to the team, and the same Biggie tune plays in the background.
From here, some unexpected actions scenes take control, including a small sequence where Efron jumps off a bridge with a motorcycle.
The most hilarious, and promising, footage of the film comes at the end of the teaser. Efron’s character has an awkward interaction with Summer Quinn, played by Alexandra Daddario.
Quinn calls Brody out for looking at her chest instead of her face, and he seems to be caught like a deer in the headlights. The two go back and forth for a moment before the trailer ends.
It’s clear that Efron and Daddario have great chemistry on-screen, and the actor’s work on The Neighbors franchise has solidified his impeccable comedic timing.
The first official trailer for Baywatch will be released on Thursday, and it will likely feature the first footage of the entire team in action.
Baywatch was directed by Seth Gordon, and is set to hit theaters on May 19, 2017.
