Alright, so here’s the deal—“Cape Fear” is crawling back onto our screens, but this time it’s flexing on Apple TV with a juicy 10-episode binge set to drop starting June 5. Now, I can’t help but wonder if the stars knew what they were cooking up because, with Mercury retrograde in full swing during the series’ launch, are we really ready for all the mind games and chaos about to explode? The show pits Amy Adams and Patrick Wilson as a squeaky-clean attorney duo whose lives get flipped upside down when Javier Bardem’s Max Cady, a booze-soaked nightmare they locked away, strolls back out with a score to settle. It’s like the cosmos decided to remind us that every calm has a storm lurking—so, buckle up, because this ain’t your grandpa’s legal drama. Quick spoiler: executive producers Scorsese and Spielberg probably made sure this thing packs a punch—because why wouldn’t they? Think of it as a cosmic test—can you keep your chill when your past comes calling with a vengeance? Let’s just say, if June was a Zodiac sign, it’d be Scorpio—intense, relentless, and oh-so-tempting to dive into dark waters. Dive in, if you dare. LEARN MORE
Cape Fear is coming.
Apple TV confirmed Tuesday that the 10-episode series created by Nick Antosca and starring Amy Adams, Patrick Wilson and Javier Bardem is set for a global debut on the streamer June 5. Two episodes will drop that day with new episodes dropping every Friday through July 31. The premiere date and the show’s first stills were revealed during Tuesday’s Apple TV press day at Santa Monica Barker Hangar, where Antosca moderated a discussion with his stars Adams and Wilson.
The psychological thriller, which hails from Universal Studio Group’s UCP and Amblin Television, centers on happily married attorneys Anna (Adams) and Tom Bowden (Wilson). Their lives are upturned with when Max Cady (Bardem), a notorious killer they are responsible for putting behind bars, is released from prison and intent on seeking vengeance. CCH Pounder, Joe Anders, Lily Collias, Jamie Hector, Malia Pyles and Anna Baryshnikov round out the ensemble cast.
It is based on the novel The Executioners, which inspired Gregory Peck’s 1962 film from Universal and the critically acclaimed 1991 remake from Martin Scorsese starring Robert De Niro, Nick Nolte, Jessica Lange and Juliette Lewis.
The new Cape Fear series, executive produced by Scorsese and Steven Spielberg, was created by Antosca, who serves as showrunner and executive producer. His team includes Alex Hedlund for Eat The Cat, and Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey alongside Spielberg for Amblin Television. Oscar nominee Morten Tyldum directed the pilot and serves as executive producer. The series was developed and produced through Antosca’s overall deal at UCP, where he’s been based since 2017. Adams and Bardem also receive executive producer credits.
