Ever since we first learned that former teen heartthrob Zac Efron and walking bicep Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson were starring in a movie reboot of beach babe classic Baywatch, we’ve barely been able to control our excitement. There are few things that capture the essence of America than bodacious lifeguards lookin’ good and saving lives on a gorgeous California beach — and yes, that includes the enduring power of David Hasselhoff, who is blessedly returning to the movie.

But while we absolutely thrilled when we learned model and former Leonardo DiCaprio flame Kelly Rohrbach would inherit Pamela Anderson’s legendary role as CJ Parker — joined by brunette beauty and The Rock’s San Andreas co-star Alexandra Daddario as Summer and the vivacious Priyanka Chopra as the movie’s primary antagonist — we haven’t actually seen too much from the set of the reboot just yet.

Thankfully, The Rock recently posted some photos from the set over the weekend, including shots alongside Rohrbach flexing their stuff. Honestly, we couldn’t be happier: From the looks of it, Rohrbach’s going to do just fine filling Anderson’s legendary red swimsuit — even thoughwe’ll have to see how well she runs into action first.

Muscle contest with @therock …. I feel like I won. #BAYWATCH baby!

The Rock also posted a shot with the seductive Chopra and an introduction to “talented, bad ass smokestack” Ilfenesh Hadera as Stephanie Holden.

Every great story starts with a great villain… My sistah @priyankachopra is one of the biggest and most beloved stars in the world. When I asked her how she felt about playing opposite me as our main #BAYWATCH villain she simply said with a sly and seductively evil smile, “Oh you're going down…” Cool is the rule, but sometimes bad is bad. Thank you PC for the strong work week and see you on the rebound in GA. #GoodLordIGotMyHandsFull #ChopraDontPlay #BAYWATCH SUMMER 2017.

The greatest of cinematic teams always start off with conflict – which is why my character can't stand this prick. And he hates me too. 💯🖕🏾But we share one common goal: Protect the Bay. #BAYWATCH #Rescue2 #WaitTilYouSeeRescue1 #OceanOGs

Great day on the beach for “Lieutenant Mitch Buchannon”. Beat up bad guys, saved a puppy from drowning and gave a woman mouth to mouth, who I think totoally pretended to drown so I'd save her. #OnSet #BAYWATCH #TheBuchannonWay #RowdyAndRatedR We're havin' a blast..
