This was being developed as a WB movie but they dropped it, but they also allowed the creatives to shop it around and every studio showed interest but Netflix is said to be the one that will get it (it's not official but insiders are confident). Netflix will buy it for $40-50M and they want to start production in June.

Director: Adam Wingard (Some segments in "V/H/S" 1 & 2, "You're Next", "The Guest")
Writer: Jeremy Slater ("Fantastic Four") wrote the most recent draft.

Cast:
Nat Wolff
Margaret Qualley
Netflix will also make an offer to Keith Stanfield once the deal is made.

Less than a couple of months ago the producer said "It’s definitely for adults. It is zero chance it will be below an R-rating", although I'm not sure why as the anime wasn't super brutal.. but this director seems to be making R films so..


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

I swear, this girl makes me feel like a pedobear everytime I see her, especially in The Leftovers. And I'm normally not attracted to women much younger than me.

Anyway, my younger brother is gonna be all over this Laughing

It was the polar opposite of that. The commercial should have been classified as psychological horror.

And wtf is this adaptation of the manga? Laughing



1 and 2 are still amazing.

It looks fine but it's not Death Note. They've fucked up the main characters so much..Especially Light. There are some good comments under this youtube video detailing all the bad changes netflix has made.

I think it looks great for a death note movie.

I would have preferred a tv show that was much closer to the anime but for an american adapted movie this is what I would expect.
