Death Note Artwork & Sequel News
Death Note Netflix director Adam Wingard recently let it be known how a Death Note sequel could happen:
"At the end of the day, there are a lot of places to explore where to take Light. And ultimately the series is sort of about almost his downfall as a character. This is sort of the beginning of it or the origin of it. There are definitely lots of places to go, and we know generally where we would take it. Hopefully people will watch it and Netflix will order a sequel. They definitely are ready to. They just need people to watch it."
As the film's popularity has continued to grow, Wingard added the following: "Just had a great call with Netflix about the weekend that made my day. Thank you for watching!"
Sounds like the Death Note creators were right: The franchise's expansion into the mainstream seems to be more rewarding than simply pleasing the already established manga/anime fans. Don't be surprised if a Death Note 2 announcement follows soon.
Death Note is currently streaming on Netflix. Below you can find Obata's original artwork for the Death Note Netflix movie.
