Not based on the prior film. The prior film was based on the TV series.

This is also based on the TV series, but different.
The Deadline article says Miami Vice '85 "explores the glamour and corruption of mid-’80s Miami in an all-new version of Miami Vice, inspired by the pilot episode and first season of the landmark Universal Television series that influenced culture and set the style in everything from fashion to filmmaking."

UPDATE: The release of Miami Vice '85 has been
