Netflix Chooses Perfect Performer for Mr. 2 in One Piece Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is set to make a major impact in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, although the real showdown won’t take place until the next season, and a adored, fan-favorite member has just been cast.
Netflix announced Tuesday that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece season 3 cast and will embody Bon Clay. Bon Clay has the ability to morph into an exact copy of any individual they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that figure reinterpreted as non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action series, unlike the original manga and cartoon version.
The new cast member is joined by a number of recently announced actors set to bring Baroque Works to reality, including chief the main antagonist, played by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and an accomplished actor, who also joins the lineup as the ruler of the desert kingdom.
Although this character is a key figure of the organization, the individual won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. Considering the next season set to cover the Little Garden segment, this signals a major departure in the placement of the character’s debut, one that could indicate more adjustments to the narrative framework.
Escola’s blend of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a standout choice for the part. In addition to their recent voice performance in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and multiple awards for penning and acting in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece program is scheduled to come back for its season two on March 10, 2026.
