A bit early for this since it's not out till 2017 but i think it looks interesting so thought i'd see if anyone else was.
Netflix are in development of another live action adaption of the anime Death Note, which is very good for those that haven't seen it. This is following i think two previous film series adaptions and a TV show in Japan, though this is the first english adaption.
A small bit of info on Willem Defoe's role in the film, good bit of casting too

Expected in 2017 directed by 'The Guest' 'You're Next' and 'Blair Witch' director Adam Wingard (two of those films give me hope it could be good, the one that doesn't is Blair Witch).
