Austin Butler in Early Talks to Join Michael B. Jordan in MIAMI VICE Reboot

Austin Butler in Early Talks to Join Michael B. Jordan in MIAMI VICE Reboot
Austin Butler ("Elvis", "Dune: Part Two") is in early negotiations to join Universal's upcoming "Miami Vice" reboot directed by Joseph Kosinski ("Top Gun: Maverick", "F1"). If the deal goes through, Butler would play James "Sonny" Crockett, the role previously played by Don Johnson in the classic 1980s TV series. Michael B. Jordan is also in early talks to star as Ricardo "Rico" Tubbs, portrayed by Philip Michael Thomas in the show.

The film is set to start filming later in 2026, and is scheduled for release on August 6, 2027. Kosinski will direct from a recent draft of the script penned by Dan Gilroy ("Nightcrawler", "Andor"). Eric Warren Singer ("Top Gun: Maverick", "American Hustle") penned the first draft. Dylan Clark and Kosinski serve as producers

Kosinski's reboot will explore the glamour and corruption of mid-1980s Miami, inspired by the pilot episode and first season of the NBC series created by Anthony Yerkovich and executive produced by Michael Mann. The show was previously adapted for the big screen in a 2006 film of the same name directed by Mann, which starred Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx in the lead roles.
