Apple TV launched a new limited series adaptation of the thriller Cape Fear on June 4, pairing Amy Adams, Javier Bardem and Patrick Wilson in a fresh take on the 1991 film.

The show drops a new episode weekly, ending July 31. It updates the plot with phones and a true‑crime podcast while keeping the core premise of a released killer stalking a defense duo.

Critics praise Bardem’s manic performance, and the series holds a 73% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Apple TV’s lineup, already featuring titles like *Widows Bay* and *Star City*, positions the platform as a go‑to for high‑profile drama.

With a seven‑day free trial, new subscribers can binge the first two episodes immediately, while existing users add the series to their queue for weekly alerts.
