Shay will star as Trina, who is a “former lawyer who walked away from a top-tier firm to dedicate herself to lifeguarding full-time. Trina is the sharpest mind on Baywatch. Passionate and dedicated, she tends to follow her heart … even if she often uses her considerable intelligence to second-guess herself.”
The actress joins the ever-growing cast, including recently announced Noah Beck and Brooks Nader.
Here’s a synopsis: The wild child Hobie Buchannon (Stephen Amell) from the original series is now a Baywatch captain, following in the footsteps of his legendary father Mitch (originally played by David Hasselhoff). Hobie’s world is turned upside down when Charlie (Jessica Belkin), the daughter he never knew, shows up on his doorstep, eager to carry on the Buchannon family legacy and become a Baywatch lifeguard alongside her dad.
