Today, premium network MGM+ revealed a first look at the crime thriller Hotel Cocaine, executive produced by Chris Brancato and Guillermo Navarro (Pan’s Labyrinth).

The teaser follows the eight-episode series’ global debut at Series Mania in Lille, France. The first episode of Hotel Cocaine will premiere on June 16 on MGM+, and new episodes will air on Sundays until August 4.

Hotel Cocaine is the story of Roman Compte (Danny Pino), a Cuban exile and general manager of the Mutiny Hotel, the glamorous epicenter of the Miami cocaine scene of the late ‘70s and early ‘80s.

The Mutiny Hotel was Casablanca on cocaine, a glitzy nightclub, restaurant, and hotel frequented by Florida businessmen and politicians, international narcos, CIA and FBI agents, models, sports stars, and musicians. At the center of it all was Compte, who was doing his best to keep it all going and fulfill his own American Dream.
