The Streaming Giant Chooses Ideal Star for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Upcoming Installment
Baroque Works is geared up to exert significant influence in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, though the major clash won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, popular member has recently been selected.
The streaming service revealed recently that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bentham. Bon Clay possesses the power to change into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve made contact with with their main hand. Escola, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will portray a version of that character reinterpreted as non-binary, rather than as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, as in the initial comic and animated series.
The new cast member is joined by a number of new cast members tasked with bringing the organization to life, such as head Sir Crocodile, portrayed by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as a key member, and a familiar face, who also joins the ensemble as the monarch of the fictional land.
Even though this character is a major member of the group, the character won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. Given the second season set to cover the Little Garden arc, this marks a major departure in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could signal more adjustments to the plot development.
Escola’s blend of excellent comedic sense and emotional depth makes them a ideal selection for the role. In addition to their latest vocal work in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and several accolades for penning and acting in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, emphasizing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece show is scheduled to come back for its next installment on the tenth of March, 2026.
