The Streaming Giant Chooses Ideal Star for Bon Clay in One Piece Third Season
The Secret Organization is geared up to exert significant influence in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, even if the true confrontation won’t unfold until the third season, and a beloved, popular member has just been cast.
The platform declared recently that the talented performer has joined the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Mr. 2. The role can use their power to transform into an identical duplicate of anyone they’ve laid a hand on with their main hand. Escola, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will portray a interpretation of that figure re-envisioned as non-binary, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the live-action show, unlike the initial comic and animated series.
The new cast member joins several other fresh additions set to bring the group to reality, including chief Mr. 0, played by the well-known actor, a talented actress as a key member, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who is also part of the cast as King Nefertari Cobra of the fictional land.
Even though Bon Clay is a important part of the organization, the character won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. Considering season 2 expected to adapt the Little Garden storyline, this signals a significant shift in the timing of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could indicate additional alterations to the plot development.
Escola’s blend of sharp comedic timing and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the role. In addition to their current animated role in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and several accolades for writing and starring in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s highly regarded roles.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is due to premiere for its second season on March 10, 2026.
