Hank Azaria to Play Apple CEO Tim Cook in 'Super Pumped' TV Series About Uber

Actor Hank Azaria has signed on to play Apple CEO Tim Cook in upcoming Showtime series "Super Pumped," reports Variety. "Super Pumped" is a series set in Silicon Valley that details the rise of ride-sharing company Uber.
