If Season 1 of Starz's stylish 1950s mob drama "Magic City" was about establishing the dynamic between suave Miami Beach hotelier Ike Evans (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) and his silent but brutal business partner, mobster Ben "The Butcher" Diamond (Danny Huston), Season 2 will be about blowing it up.
As the season opens on Friday (June 14), Ike is sitting in a jail cell after having been framed for a murder. He concludes he can no longer function with this association in his life, and he hatches a plan to rid himself of his glowering nemesis once and for all. It involves Ike's pride and joy, the Miramar Playa, along with Fidel Castro, the hotels and casinos in Havana, and a Chicago mob boss by the name of Sy Berman (Oscar nominee James Caan, "The Godfather"), who happens to be Ben's boss.
Once cleared of the charges, Ike puts his plan in motion.

In "Magic City," the new original Starz series starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Miami is hot and Morgan as hotelier Ike Evans wants to introduce America -- and us -- to the city's charms.
In the series-opening episode we meet Evans and his microcosmic world of retro glitter glamour at the Miramar Playa hotel, which he owns and oversees. Things are swell. It's New Year's Eve 1959 and Frank Sinatra is set to take the stage at the Miramar to ring in the new decade. But without something to sour the mix there wouldn't be a show.
In this case, the sour is amply provided by Danny Huston as mobster Ben Diamond who, we get the feeling, financed a big portion of the Miramar Playa and isn't content with being a silent partner. In the opening episode he rattles Ike's cage, but comes through in the end by averting a strike that...
