Natt Wolff may have lost out on the role of Peter Parker to Tom Holland, but he's being lined up to star as Light Yagami (expect a name change there) in Warner Bros.' live-action take on popular Manga/Anime, Death Note.
This adaptation does seem to be sticking fairly close to the source material with its basic premise, however, as Variety report that Wolff will play "a student who discovers a supernatural notebook that allows him to kill anyone simply by writing the victim’s name. A cat-and-mouse game ensues when he’s tracked by a reclusive police officer."
Death Note will be directed by Adam Wingard from a script by Jeremy Slater (Fantastic Four), with Roy Lee, Dan Lin, Jason Hoffs and Masi Oka on board as producers. The movie is set to commence production next Spring.
