From NCAA gymnastics to Hollywood, Olivia Dunne has continued to make waves across social media. With the latest sneak peek from her debut set, the former LSU star sets the internet ablaze yet again.

The internet erupted this Wednesday after the media outlets Page Six and Splash News spotted Olivia Dunne at Venice Beach in Los Angeles.

The former gymnast was seen filming scenes near the shore of the beach for her highly anticipated acting debut in the reboot of Fox series Baywatch.

Standing on set, Olivia wore the show's iconic red lifeguard uniform. The outfit's vibrant red color and her long blonde hair instantly reminded fans of the original 90s Baywatch look.

The Baywatch star is already a digital star thanks to her massive online fan following. Olivia is set to make her acting debut next year. She will play the role of Grace, an energetic junior lifeguard in the series' upcoming reboot.

She will share the screen with big names like Stephen Amell, Jessica Belkin, Noah Beck, Hassie Harrison, Thaddeus LaGrone, Shay Mitchell, and Brooks Nader.

Although the series won't hit the television screens until next year, Olivia is already reporting to her duty on set, and fans are excited for the role.

Olivia Dunne Bonds With Co-star on Baywatch Set

Olivia Dunne has found some amazing bonds on the set that helped her prepare well for her role. As the former gymnast prepares for her role as junior lifeguard on the set, costar Brooks Nader is actively helping her fine-tune their on-screen chemistry.

During their training days, the duo was spotted practicing for their upcoming role. In March, Olivia and Nader were seen filming on the beach of Los Angeles, holding hands.

The sneak peek made the fans excited for the bond and caught the attention of the media.

A source told Page Six, “They’re really excited to be working together. They’re having so much fun and bringing that Sports Illustrated energy straight to Baywatch Beach.”

The two have already known each other since their Sports Illustrated photo shoots, and the comfort was clearly visible during their training session.

Seeing Dunne get along with her co-star and understand the craft shows her commitment to nail her debut role. As the buzz is already at its peak, fans can't wait to watch the duo on the big screen.
