Amy Adams (Nightbitch, American Hustle) will star opposite Javier Bardem in the Apple TV+ series Cape Fear, from Nick Antosca, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg.

Adams and Bardem are also executive producers.

The series is described “as a tense, Hitchcockian thriller and an examination of America’s obsession with true crime in the 21st century.”

In the ten-episode series, “a storm is coming for happily married attorneys Amanda (Adams) and Steve Bowden when Max Cady (played by Bardem), a notorious killer from their past, gets out of prison.”

Cape Fear is based on John D. MacDonald’s novel The Executioners — which inspired the 1962 feature of the same name directed by J. Lee Thompson from storyboards devised by original director Alfred Hitchcock — and the 1991 remake directed by Scorsese.
