The biggest and best streaming services in the world tend to have a sort of hivemind approach to content decisions, even if they don't actually know it at the time. Just as Netflix prepares to give people a remade version of a cult favourite movie (Man on Fire), changing it to a series and recasting the iconic Denzel Washington, Apple TV is planning a very similar move with a different movie.
It's remade Cape Fear, the Scorcese movie from 1991 based on a novel from decades earlier, and given one lucky fellow the job of replacing none other than Robert De Niro in the main role. This time around, Max will be played by Javier Bardem, in what's already looking like some inspired casting in the first teaser trailer, embedded below.
