The Streaming Giant Selects Spot-On Star for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is geared up to make a major impact in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the major clash isn’t set to occur until the third season, and a beloved, fan-favorite member has recently been selected.
The streaming service revealed Tuesday that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will play Bon Clay. Bon Clay has the ability to transform into an identical duplicate of any individual they’ve touched with their right hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that figure re-envisioned as non-binary identifying, rather than as a drag queen, in the live-action series, unlike the original manga and animated series.
This performer joins several other recently announced actors set to bring the group to the screen, featuring chief Sir Crocodile, portrayed by the well-known actor, a talented actress as another operative, and a familiar face, who will appear as the cast as the ruler of the desert kingdom.
Even though this character is a major member of the group, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. With season 2 likely to portray the Little Garden segment, this marks a notable change in the timing 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 character. Along with their latest vocal work in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece program is due to premiere for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
