Apple TV released the teaser for their new psychological horror thriller, Cape Fear.

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 new 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 recur.

The show is based on both John D. MacDonald‘s 1957 novel The Executioners, which was adapted into 1962’s Cape Fear starring Gregory Peck, and Martin Scorsese’s 1991 remake with Robert De Niro and producer Steven Spielberg. 

Creator Nick Antosca (Channel Zero) is the show runner and produces alongside Alex Hedlund for Eat The Cat, and Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey produce alongside Spielberg for Amblin Television. Academy Award nominee Morten Tyldum will direct the pilot and serve as executive producer. The series is developed and produced through Antosca’s overall deal at UCP, where he’s been based since 2017, a division of Universal Studio Group.

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.
