TikTok star and Tubi actor Noah Beck has been cast as series regular Luke in Fox's Baywatch reboot, following the recent announcement of Stephen Amell as captain Hobie Buchannon. Beck portrays a charming SoCal surfer and flirt who matures under Hobie's mentorship. Production begins this spring in the LA area for a 2026-2027 premiere.
In the reboot co-produced by Fox Entertainment and Fremantle, Beck's Luke is the youngest in a family of firefighters who chooses beach duty. A skilled lifeguard needing to grow up, Luke forms a close bond with Hobie (Amell), viewing him as a mentor and father figure.
Additional cast includes Jessica Belkin as Hobie's daughter Charlie Vale, Hassie Harrison as Nat, Thaddeus LaGrone as Brad, Brooks Nader as Selene, and David Chokachi reprising his original role as Cody Madison. The ensemble follows Hobie leading Baywatch HQ amid family drama and high-stakes rescues.
Showrunner Matt Nix (Burn Notice, The Gifted) leads with executive producers Michael Berk, Greg Bonann, Doug Schwartz, Dante Di Loreto, and Mike Horowitz. Premiere director is McG.
Beck, star of Tubi's Sidelined franchise (including Sidelined 2: Intercepted, which he executive produced), brings a massive fanbase with over 40 million followers and 2 billion social impressions.
