Don't care about whitewashing.
Though knowing the death note story, having watched anime and read, I have no idea why they didn't just create new characters. Then you can also come up with your own story and thus be something new and not "predictable" as well as casting whoever you want and not getting people upset that they ruined L or something. Or as is commonly said "whitewashing"
Also, I feel this would have made a good series, versus a movie.
