wonder if they got permission yon use ryuks likeness in the poster

I noticed that as soon as I saw the poster and immediately checked the comments to see if anyone else had noticed!

Yeah same, I was confused wondering what this had to do with Death Note.

Is that a reference? (I know who Ryuk is)

sorry i dont follow

It's a reference to a manga series with an anime and a Netflix adaptation called Death note[0].

One of the characters is Ryuk[1] who has a likeness on the image on Wikipedia for this article.
