Apple TV+ has officially ordered a series adaptation of 'Cape Fear,' with Javier Bardem set to star as the infamous villain Max Cady. The project is notable for its high-profile production team, which includes acclaimed filmmakers Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg, both of whom will serve as executive producers. Nick Antosca will take on the roles of writer, executive producer, and showrunner for the series. This new adaptation aims to re-imagine the classic thriller originally produced by Universal Pictures, following previous portrayals of Max Cady by Robert De Niro in the 1991 film and Robert Mitchum in the 1962 version.
