After the strikes, seems like now we’re getting a tidal wave of announcements and castings.

The creator of this potential series wrote Antlers and created Channel Zero.

I loved the movie with De Niro and Nolte but not sure how long they could stretch that premise for a series

Not really sure there needs to be a third version of this, but if its got a good cast i'll give it a go, I just dont see the story being able to last 6-10 episodes

I enjoyed both movies, but also wondered how this could be presented as a series.
Then I thought about Fatal Attraction, which I enjoyed as a series. So, I'll definitely give this a shot.

There's already two solid films of this story which are pretty much classics. But hey when there's too many streaming services hungry for content to meet quarterly subscriber numbers anything gets dug up and turned into a drawn out series.

Antlers had so much promise but sucked overall.

Apple TV+ has given a formal green light to Cape Fear, a TV series executive produced by two Oscar winners, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. They are joined by a third, Javier Bardem, who will star and executive produce.
Created by Nick Antosca (The Act), Cape Fear is based on both 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 — as well as the 1991 remake directed by Scorsese.
In the 10-episode series, described as a tense, Hitchcockian thriller and an examination of America’s obsession with true crime in the 21st century, a storm is coming for happily married attorneys Amanda and Steve Bowden when Max Cady (played by Bardem), a notorious killer from their past, gets out of prison.

Ugh.
Create something new.
Although if it is as good as Presumed Innocent then we will have a winner.

Hoping for a show about a guy who likes his cigars, shitty children's entertainment, and life.

I think it aired during your long hiatus from this forum.
He also wrote the horror movie The Forest that starred Natalie Dormer about the haunted forest in Japan.
Anyway, although the creator's resume isn't great, there is some A-List acting talent starring in this.

The show is not a suprise. Since Fatal Attraction and especially Presumed Innocent did a good job of bringing an old thriller to the small screen, it was just a matter of time until other famous movies would get the same treatment.
The cast is excellent and I can see Javier Bardem in the role.
The concept stands and falls with the performance of the bad guy.

Looks great... I'm in. Javier Bardem looks like he's nailed the role. And Amy Adams... well...

Of all the remakes that we don't need, this one actually looks good. Not as good as the original, but definitely worth watching.

I was watching Mr. Scorsese on Apple + and he said Cape Fear with De Niro was not his favorite movie.
I strongly disagree and thought it was great.
