Martin Scorsese. Steven Spielberg. Nick Antosca. Amy Adams. Javier Bardem. Patrick Wilson. That’s the list of incredible talent attached to Apple TV’s upcoming series “Cape Fear,” a psychological horror thriller from showrunner Nick Antosca (“Channel Zero”) and executive producers Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg.
The 10-episode series will make its global debut on June 5 with a two-episode premiere on Apple TV, followed by new episodes every Friday through July 31, 2026.
Meet the new face of fear on four official “Cape Fear” posters below.
Academy Award nominee Amy Adams (Arrival) and Academy Award winner Javier Bardem (Dune) executive produce and star in the new series alongside an ensemble cast that includes Golden Globe and Emmy nominee Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring: Last Rites), Joe Anders, Lily Collias, Malia Pyles, and CCH Pounder.
In the series, “A storm is coming for happily married attorneys Anna (Amy Adams) and Tom Bowden (Patrick Wilson) when Max Cady (Javier Bardem), the notorious killer they are responsible for putting behind bars, is let out of prison — and he wants vengeance.”
Ron Perlman (Hellboy), Ted Levine (The Silence of the Lambs), Margarita Levieva (“Daredevil: Born Again”), and Patrick Fischler (“Twin Peaks”) will also star.
The Apple TV series is based on John D. MacDonald‘s 1957 novel The Executioners, which was of course adapted into 1962’s Cape Fear starring Gregory Peck, and Martin Scorsese’s 1991 remake with Robert De Niro and producer Steven Spielberg.
