Netflix Casts Ideal Performer for Mr. 2 in One Piece Season 3
Baroque Works is poised to exert significant influence in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, though the true confrontation won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, audience-beloved member has recently been selected.
The platform declared Tuesday that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece cast for the third season and will play Bentham. Bon Clay has the ability to morph into an identical duplicate of any person they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. The actor, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will portray a interpretation of that figure reinterpreted as non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the original manga and anime.
This performer will work alongside several other new cast members who will portray the group to reality, such as head Sir Crocodile, brought to life by the seasoned performer, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who will appear as the cast as the monarch of the desert kingdom.
Though the role is a important part of the group, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. Given the next season set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this marks a major departure in the placement of their first appearance, one that could indicate more adjustments to the narrative framework.
Escola’s blend of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a ideal selection for the role. Besides their latest vocal work in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s widely praised figures.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is due to premiere for its season two on March 10, 2026.
