Prime Video Acquires ‘Baywatch’ For Canada, Latin America, India and Europe

“Baywatch” is heading to Canada, India and Europe, among other territories, thanks to a new multi-territory between international distributor Fremantle and Prime Video.

The pact also includes the original series’ complete back catalogue, including spin-off “Baywatch Hawaii.”

Italy, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Benelux, Switzerland, Austria, Turkey, Canada, Latin America and India will be able to access the new and rebooted 12-episode season of the sun-soaked drama in 2027 as well as all past seasons.

The show, which is produced by Fremantle and Fox Entertainment, is set to debut in the U.S. in January 2027. In the U.K. it will land on Sky.

“Baywatch” will see a new cast of lifeguards don the iconic red swimsuits as they patrol the world’s most famous stretch of sand, navigating ocean dramas as well as personal ones. “Arrow’s” Stephen Amell leads the series alongside Jessica Belkin (“Elle”) as Charlie Vale and Shay Mitchell (“Pretty Little Liars”) as Trina.

Joining them are Thaddeus LaGrone as Brad, Noah Beck as Luke and Brooks Nader as Selene while David Chokachi reprises the role of Cody Madison and Livvy Dunne portrays Grace.

Original castmembers Erika Eleniak, Michael Bergin and Kelly Packard will return as guest stars.

Michela Di Mondo, Fremantle’s EVP for international distribution, brokered the deal.

“We’re thrilled to be partnering with Prime Video to bring the new ‘Baywatch’ to audiences across multiple territories, while also giving fans the opportunity to revisit the original series they know and love,” Di Mondo said. “Few shows have made as big a splash or had such lasting cultural impact as ‘Baywatch,’ and this landmark deal marks a significant moment for one of the industry’s most eagerly anticipated launches. The excitement surrounding the show has been incredible, and we can’t wait for audiences to see what’s in store. This is just the beginning of what we believe will be an exciting new chapter for ‘Baywatch.’”
