After Quantico, Priyanka Chopra's next international outing could be Baywatch

News Agencies | Updated on: 14 February 2017, 5:15 IST

Bollywood turned international actor Priyanka Chopra is in talks to join Hollywood actors Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron in the upcoming film Baywatch, based on the 1990s TV series about California lifeguards.

Baywatch, to be helmed by Seth Gordon, centers on the leader of an elite group of lifeguards (Johnson) who is forced to team up with a young, former Olympian, played by Efron, to save their beloved bay.

Scheduling conflicts with the film's shoot and Priyanka's ABC show Quantico still need to be worked out, but the actor would play the story's villain, reports hollywoodreporter.com.
