Death Note Live-Action Adaptation In Development by Stranger Things Creators

Netflix announced via their official Twitter account that following the massive success of Stranger Things Season 4, series creators Ross and Matt Duffer have started a new production company called Upside Down Pictures.

The new company will create film and TV projects for Netflix. Among the many projects in development, Tsugumi Ohba‘s Death Note is getting a new live-action adaptation.

Death Note received a live-action film adaptation by Netflix in 2017. It should be noted that the first live-action adaptation was not well received by fans.

Now that the makers of Stranger Things are producing the series, fans can expect it to be a lot better than its predecessor. The new live-action adaptation will not be a sequel to the 2017 live-action film.

The Duffer Brothers‘ new company, Upside Down, will also adapt Stephen King and Peter Straub’s 1984 novel The Talisman, a horror novel with a theme similar to Stranger Things.

Speaking to Deadline, Matt Duffer revealed that the new series will be more fantasy, more science fiction than Stranger Things.
