She wished the new team well and appeared comfortable remaining outside a series built around the show that made her one of the most recognizable television stars of the 1990s.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>She Still Looks Back Fondly on Playing C.J. Parker<\/h2>\n<p>Anderson joined <em>Baywatch<\/em> as lifeguard C.J. Parker in 1992 and remained with the series until 1997. She described the original production as a great job and joked that reporting to work on a beach every day was hardly a burden.<\/p>\n<p>The role brought her worldwide exposure and became inseparable from her public image. She said every stage of her career contributed to the opportunities she has now, even as she acknowledged that repeatedly revisiting C.J. would not help her move toward the work she wants to pursue next.<\/p>\n<h2>Anderson Wants Roles That Audiences Do Not Expect<\/h2>\n<p>Anderson\u00a0wants to continue experimenting with characters unlike the screen persona audiences associated with her for decades. Anderson said she is considering several possibilities, including another theater production, and wants her next decisions to feel bold rather than convenient.<\/p>\n<p>Her recent career reflects that approach. Anderson received a Golden Globe nomination for her performance as an aging Las Vegas entertainer in Gia Coppola\u2019s <em>The Last Showgirl<\/em>. She later appeared opposite Liam Neeson in <em>The Naked Gun<\/em> and has continued accepting projects designed to challenge expectations about her acting.<\/p>\n<p>Anderson previously returned to the stage in Broadway\u2019s <em>Chicago<\/em>, playing Roxie Hart in 2022. Her comments suggest another theatrical role is more appealing to her than stepping back into C.J. Parker\u2019s familiar red swimsuit.<\/p>\n<h2>Fox Is Building \u2018Baywatch\u2019 Around a New Generation<\/h2>\n<p><noscript><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u2018Baywatch\u2019 REBOOT 1st Look: Stephen Amell, Brooks Nader &amp; Livvy Dunn Hit the Beach!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IwKItrP6MTQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>Fox\u2019s new <em>Baywatch<\/em> is scheduled to premiere in January 2027 with a largely new cast and updated storylines centered on Southern California\u2019s shoreline.
