MGM+ has released the first teaser trailer for its upcoming miniseries, Hotel Cocaine. Set to premiere on the streaming platform starting June 16, with new episodes airing weekly through August 14, the crime thriller stars Danny Pino (Mayans M.C.) as Mutiny Hotel general manager Roman Compte.
The trailer transports viewers to the 1970s era when Miami’s cocaine scene was at its peak. Hailing from the co-creators of Narcos and Godfather of Harlem, Hotel Cocaine is inspired by the luxurious hotel on Biscayne Bay in Miami, Florida, known for not only being the hangout spot of the rich and famous but also for its rampant drug trade during the 1970s and 80s.
“Hotel Cocaine is the story of Roman Compte (Pino), a Cuban expatriate who fought against Fidel Castro in the Bay of Pigs invasion and re-made his life in Miami. He is the general manager of the Mutiny Hotel, the glamorous epicenter of the Miami cocaine scene of the late ’70s and early ’80s,” the synopsis reads (via Deadline).
