Netflix Casts Perfect Star for Bentham in the Hit Series Season 3
The Secret Organization is geared up to make a major impact in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, even if the real showdown won’t take place until the third season, and a adored, fan-favorite member has just been cast.
The streaming service revealed recently that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Mr. 2. This character can use their power to morph into an identical duplicate of any person they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that figure reinterpreted as non-binary identifying, as opposed to as a drag artist, in the live-action show, unlike the original manga and cartoon version.
Escola will work alongside several other recently announced actors set to bring the organization to reality, such as leader Sir Crocodile, played by the seasoned performer, an emerging star as Miss Goldenweek, and a familiar face, who also joins the lineup as the monarch of the fictional land.
Though this character is a important part of Baroque Works, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. Given the second season set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this marks a major departure in the schedule of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could indicate additional alterations to the plot development.
Escola’s blend of precise humor and profound feeling makes them a perfect fit for the part. Besides their latest vocal work in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded figures.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is due to premiere for its second season on March 10th, 2026.
