Rescue: Hi-Surf: teaser

Think next-gen Baywatch….

New drama series Rescue: Hi-Surf, from prolific producer / director John Wells (Shameless, The West Wing, ER) and executive producer / writer Matt Kester (Animal Kingdom, Outsiders), will be coming to Binge this Spring.

The series features Australian actor Adam Demos (Sex / Life, UnReal) and New Zealand actor Robbie Magasiva (Wentworth, Bad Behaviour).

The Hawaii lifeguard drama follows the personal and professional lives of the heavy-water lifeguards who patrol and protect the North Shore of O’ahu—the most famous and dangerous stretch of coastline in the world. Each episode will feature first-responders saving lives in the  often life-threatening conditions of Hawaii’s Seven Mile Miracle.

The cast also includes Arielle Kebbel (The Vampire Diaries, John Tucker Must Die), Kekoa Kekumano (The White Lotus, Aquaman), Alex Aiono (Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, Doogie Kameāloha M.D), and Zoe Cipres (Roswell, New Mexico). In addition, Sea Shimooka (3 Body Problem, Arrow), Shawn Hatosy (Animal Kingdom) and Ian Anthony Dale (The Resident) will appear in recurring roles.

Rescue: Hi-Surf is co-produced by Warner Bros. Television and FOX Entertainment Studios. Matt Kester created the series. Kester, John Wells and Daniele Nathanson are executive producers and co-showrunners. Erin Jontow (John Wells Productions) is also an executive producer. Kester will write the first episode, and Wells will direct the first two episodes.
