In a new promotional image for Netflix's Death Note, L presses Light for questions about "Kira" while taking a seat in an odd way that's familiar to fans.
Actor Lakeith Stanfield shared a new promotional image for Netflix’s Death Note, which features the detective L asking protagonist Light Turner a few questions about the ongoing case about the “Kira” serial murders. Interestingly, L is seen seated in such a way that pays homage to the original manga and anime that the movie is based on.
Being an eccentric genius of a detective, L was known for displaying odd mannerisms in the source material, such as his odd way of squat-sitting every time he needed a break. It’s neat to see that they’re carrying over this detail into the movie; hopefully, the same attention to detail may prove to make for a more faithful adaptation than most other attempts at American live-action anime movies.
Death Note will leave its mark on August 25, 2017 exclusively through the Netflix streaming service. Its cast includes Nat Wolff as Light Turner, Margaret Qualley as Mia Sutton, Keith Stanfield as L, Paul Nakauchi as Watari, Shea Whigham as James Turner, and Willem Dafoe as the voice of Ryuk. Masi Oka will also appear in an unspecified role.
