The Streaming Giant Selects Perfect Star for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Third Season
The Secret Organization is geared up to make a major impact in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the major clash won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, audience-beloved member has just been cast.
Netflix announced this week that the talented performer will appear in the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bentham. This character has the ability to change into an exact copy of any individual they’ve made contact with with their main hand. The actor, who is non-binary and goes by they/them, will depict a interpretation of that figure re-envisioned as gender non-binary, rather than as a drag artist, in the live-action series, differing from the source material and animated series.
This performer joins a number of new cast members set to bring the group to the screen, including head the main antagonist, played by the well-known actor, Sophia Anne Caruso as a key member, and an accomplished actor, who will appear as the ensemble as the ruler of Alabasta.
Even though the role is a key figure of Baroque Works, the character will be introduced in One Piece the third season. With the second season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this marks a major departure in the placement of the character’s debut, one that could signal more adjustments to the story’s structure.
Escola’s blend of excellent comedic sense and emotional depth makes them a perfect fit for the character. Besides their current animated role in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and several accolades for creating and performing in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, emphasizing the range they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s widely praised figures.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is scheduled to come back for its second season on March 10, 2026.
