Netflix Casts Ideal Actor for Mr. 2 in One Piece Season 3

Baroque Works is geared up to make a major impact in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the major clash isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a adored, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.

The platform declared recently that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bentham. This character possesses the power to change into an perfect replica of any person they’ve touched with their right hand. The actor, who is non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that role reimagined as non-binary identifying, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action show, differing from the initial comic and cartoon version.

The new cast member is joined by several other new cast members set to bring the organization to life, including chief Sir Crocodile, portrayed by Joe Manganiello, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the cast as King Nefertari Cobra of the fictional land.

Even though the role is a key figure of the organization, the individual won’t make their debut One Piece the upcoming installment. Given the second season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this marks a major departure in the timing of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal more adjustments to the plot development.

Their mix of precise humor and profound feeling makes them a standout choice for the character. In addition to their recent voice performance in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and numerous honors for penning and acting in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, highlighting the adaptability they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s most celebrated figures.

The streaming service’s real-life One Piece show is set to return for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
