Lakeith Stanfield’s L gets his moment to shine in Netflix’s new character poster for Death Note.
After all, the more that’s been released from Death Note, the more skeptical fans have grown of the adaptation, despite director Adam Wingard’s response to the controversy surrounding the early promotional materials.
L is one of the bigger mysteries in this particular take on the property, and his brief appearances in the full-length trailer for Death Note, only further made fans uncertain of his portrayal here.
Based on the beloved anime/manga property of the same name, Death Note follows Light (Nat Wolff), a high school student who comes across a supernatural book that he realizes contains dangerous powers.
