In the teaser, Brooks Nader, who plays a character named Selene, walked on a dock at night while rocking a jacket over her iconic red swimsuit. Livvy Dunne, who plays a character named Grace, was on the beach while looking dramatically into the distance. Additionally, Amell’s toned abs were front and center as he ran in slo-mo, and Jessica Belkin, as Hobie’s daughter, Charlie, also rushed across the beach while carrying a rescue board.
