Exclusive: Jamie Hector talks Apple’s ‘Cape Fear’ TV Series

Currently playing on Apple TV with new episodes every Friday through July 31, 2026 is the 10-episode limited series Cape Fear.

Inspired by the 1991 remake directed by Martin Scorsese and produced by Steven Spielberg, 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. 

Joe Anders, Lily Collias and Malia Pyles round out the ensemble cast, and the supporting cast includes CCH Pounder, Jamie Hector and Anna Baryshnikov

Hailing from UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, and Amblin Television, “Cape Fear” is based on both the novel “The Executioners,” which inspired Gregory Peck’s Universal Pictures feature (1962) of the same name, as well as the acclaimed 1991 remake directed by Scorsese. The series is executive produced by Steven Spielberg, who produced the 1991 film, alongside Scorsese.

Hector is best known for his role as Marlo in HBO's The Wire, as well as a starring role in Amazon’s Bosch and sequel series Bosch: Legacy. Hector has also been seen on shows like We Own This City, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, The Strain, among others. Film credits include Blackout, Vacation Friends 2, The Listener, and All Eyez on Me.
