Universal Pictures has officially titled its Miami Vice reboot Miami Vice ’85, starring Michael B. Jordan as Ricardo “Rico” Tubbs and Austin Butler as James “Sonny” Crockett. Joseph Kosinski directs the film, which will be shot for IMAX and release in theaters on August 6, 2027. The story explores the glamour and corruption of mid-1980s Miami, inspired by the pilot episode and first season of the original Universal Television series.
A 1984 promotional skit for the crime drama Miami Vice unexpectedly inspired the creation of the beloved sitcom The Golden Girls. The skit, featuring older female characters misnaming the show as 'Miami Nice,' sparked the idea of a series centered on senior women living in Miami. This concept, developed by creators Susan Harris, Tony Thomas, and Paul Junger Witt, led to one of television's most iconic comedies.
