Showtime released the key art and announced the premiere date for the second season of Dice. Season two of the comedy series will return with seven new, half-hour episodes Sunday, August 20 at 10:30pm ET/PT on Showtime on air, on demand and over the internet.

The series also stars Kevin Corrigan and Natasha Leggero. Season two guest stars include David Arquette, Andy Daly, Patrick Fischler, Billy Gardell, Mary Holland, Michael Imperioli, Ron Livingston, Laraine Newman, Tony Orlando, Mickey Rourke, Teller, Mike Starr and James Woods. The series' executive producers are Armstrong, Sean Furst, Bryan Furst, Andrew Dice Clay, Bruce Rubenstein, Brian Gatewood and Alessandro Tanaka.
