Cape Fear is heading to the small screen, giving fans of John D. MacDonald’s original novel a reason to get excited.

Based on MacDonald’s 1957 novel The Executioners, the Apple TV is created and executive produced by Nick Antosca and hails from Academy Award-winning executive producers Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg. The novel previously inspired the original 1962 Universal Pictures film starring Gregory Peck, as well as the 1991 remake directed by Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro and Nick Nolte.
