TOKYO -- Hideo Nakata will helm "L," a spinoff from the megahit "Death Note" pic pair, producer Nippon Television Network (NTV) announced Wednesday.
Nakata, the horrormeister whose credits include "The Ring 2" and the upcoming "Kaidan" and "The Ring 3," signed on to the project after three years in Hollywood.
Nakata said he wanted to make more movies in Japan and that he was taken with the perf of Kenichi Matsuyama in the "Death Note" pics and wanted to work with the actor.
Matsuyama plays the sweets-loving "genius" detective who matches wits and wills with a power-besotted college student able to kill anyone he pleases simply by writing the person's name in a mysterious notebook.
"L" will focus on the detective's story before the events of the two "Death Note" pics, which grossed a total of \8 billion ($67 million) in Japan last year.
Principal photography is skedded to begin in August, with NTV handling planning and production in partnership with Nikkatsu.
Warner Japan will release the movie in the first half of 2008 in Japan.

Some more cast and plot details of the "Death Note" spinoff, "L," have been revealed. Aside from lead actor Kenichi Matsuyama and lead actress Mayuko Fukuda, the cast includes Masanobu Takashima, Youki Kudoh, Kiyotaka Nanbara, and Megumi Sato. Takashima's character reportedly involves the use of special makeup.
The story for the film involves L's "final case," taking place during the 23 days before his death. The case does not appear in the original "Death Note" storyline.

minna-san! oo napanuod ko nga! Grabe bakit ganun yung project nya? gimmick ba sa movie yun? parang si yuko takeuchi (lunch queen) yung kasama nya...as beautiful and pleasant as ever and yung guy eh si mikio sa MBMH yung kapatid ni nagase tomoya na matalino pero parang bading.
ask natin si lynn-san jan since sya yung erika fan kung bakit ganun yung project nya....parang feeling ko asar sya sa reactions ng mga tao dahil sa bago nyang look pero syempre di naman ako nakakaintindi masyado ng nihonggo so i'm not sure din.Hindi ko naman type pag aksayahan ng panahon para magbasa sa thread nya so intay na lang ako feedback from the experts with her....
sige...minna-san basta inform us kung kelan ang GA ha? napansin nyo ba di na nagpopost si w3bhead? sa GA tanong nyo kung bakit? yiheee!
sa UAAP naman, tsk! tsk! yari ang UE kasi nangalawang sila and the momentum is with la-salle coming from the ateneo knock out win....dapat kasi pag sweep ka parang dati champion na if not at least makapanalo ka man ng isa panalo ka na dati ganun din naman yung rules kaya nakarami ng championships ang la-salle eh eh kaso ngayon malas UE since they changed them. Hopefully makapanalo sila next para may game 3 pa. Pero the momentum and the hype nasa la-salle ngayon so back against the wall ang UE...they have to give it their all come Sat and La-salle won't give them a win easily since ever since may killer instinct ang La salle kaya ganyan din sila kagaling sa basketball eh....Let's see what happens.
L movie....Yipee! eto inaabangan nating lahat! Sana naman ipalabas dito yan maski I doubt pero malay natin di ba?
Thanks bite_me for the info!
nayakuuu mukhang magastos tong November-December na to dahil jan sa mga cosplay events ha? Hmmmm....kelangan may raket para masuportahan nag mga kagamitan para sa cosplay....
o sya! dumaan lang po...oyasumi minna-san....obentou, jaz, rina, yamafe, rkon, koneko, nekozuki, buraian, lucy-san...sino pa ba?
lynn-san i-explain mo sana sa amin yung tungkol kay erika...zeldais-sama...glad you're back here ....zai-kun sama ka next GA?...sino pa?
sa mga newbies! welcome dito sa ming munting samahang pinoy! enjoy posting!
Parang mas natuwa pa tuloy ako dun sa interview ni Paris Hilton sa Dave Letterman nung isang araw
siguro naman if my stylist made me wear what she wore, that jungle outfit at yung blond wig i'll be sullen too. nabasa ko nga yung mga comments sa thread in erika, kawawa naman siya. oh well, kung celeb ka talagang hindi ka puede maging masungit ganun ba? i guess ganun na nga yun, through anything put on a smile for your fans even if your heart is aching. hindi ba namatay yung tatay niya at kapatid sunod sunod.
ok just venting hindi ko naman favorito si sawajiri kaya lang celeb bashing talaga ang nangyari. _________________

Pero dahil daw sa attitude niyang yon balita ko sinuspend siya for one year ng Stardust ah? Tapos dineny naman niya sa isang interiew sa Super Morning. Hmmm, alin ba ang totoo? _________________
