“Magic City,” starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan (“Grey’s Anatomy”), Olga Kurylenko (“Quantum of Solace”) and Danny Huston (“Children of Men”), premieres at 9 p.m. Friday, April 6 on Starz, according to a news release.

Morgan plays Ike Evans, owner of the luxurious Miramar Playa Hotel in Miami Beach in the late 1950s, a chaotic time in Miami and abroad as racial and religious segregation are at their peak in the U.S., and 90 miles away in Cuba, Castro’s rebels are closing in on Havana.

Despite all of this, Miami is still the popular spot to be and the Miramar Playa is at its coveted center.

While the Kennedys, the mob and the CIA all hold court here, Ike, the man with the dream, is the star, although everything comes at a price.

“Magic City” follows Evans as he comes up with ways to finance his dream, including essentially selling his soul to the devil, mob boss Ben “The Butcher” Diamond (Huston).

His former showgirl wife Vera (Kurylenko) and his three children think he’s an honorable man, but he can’t renege on his arrangement with Diamond.

Other cast members in the series include Steven Strait (“City Island”), Christian Cooke (Cemetery Junction), Jessica Marais (“Packed to the Rafters”), Yul Vazquez (“The A-Team”), Dominik Garcia-Lorido (“City Island”), Kelly Lynch (“Drugstore Cowboy”) and Elle Satine (“Just Go With It”).

The production credits for “Magic City,” provided by Starz, are as follows:

“Magic City” was created by writer and executive producer Mitch Glazer (“The Recruit,” “Scrooged”), who grew up in the glamorous, ominous world of late 1950s Miami Beach, frequenting the lobbies of iconic hotels such as the Fountainbleau, Eden Roc and Deauville. Geyer Kosinski (Changeling, The Astronaut Farmer) also executive produces the series along with co-executive producer Ed Bianchi(“Deadwood”) and Emmy Award-winning producer Dwayne Shattuck (“Mad Men”).

有線電視網(wǎng)Starz今年將推出另外一部極有看點(diǎn)的劇集《魔力之城》(Magic City)，也許是受到《廣告狂人》、《演播時(shí)刻》等復(fù)古劇集的影響，《魔力之城》將聚焦于1959年的邁阿密海灘。正如海報(bào)上所述，在這里，逍遙如神仙般的生活，也將變得丑陋不堪。

在20世紀(jì)50年代末，邁阿密成為了許多追尋美國(guó)夢(mèng)之人的目的地，故事講述了黑幫、政客、戲子混雜的邁阿密第一大酒店中發(fā)生的諸事。正如卡斯特羅控制時(shí)期的古巴，The Miramar Playa Hotel也由一位權(quán)力人物所控制，他便是由杰弗里·迪恩·摩根(Jeffrey Dean Morgan)所飾演的Ike Evans，他為了實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢(mèng)想，不惜將靈魂出賣(mài)給了魔鬼，那個(gè)由丹尼·赫斯頓(Danny Huston)所飾演的黑幫老大,“屠夫”Ben Diamond。

《魔力之城》的此款預(yù)告海報(bào)，將主要人物羅列其中，也制造了黑幫故事的氛圍。《魔力之城》將于4月6日晚22:00在Starz首播。
