The Streaming Giant Selects Ideal Performer for Bentham in the Hit Series Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is poised to play a huge role in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, though the major clash won’t take place until the next season, and a adored, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.
The streaming service revealed recently that the talented performer has joined the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will play Mr. 2. Bon Clay possesses the power to change into an identical duplicate of any individual they’ve laid a hand on with their main hand. The actor, who is gender non-conforming and prefers they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that character reimagined as gender non-binary, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the live-action show, differing from the original manga and cartoon version.
Escola will work alongside a number of new cast members set to bring the group to the screen, such as head Mr. 0, portrayed by the well-known actor, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and a familiar face, who is also part of the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of the fictional land.
Although the role is a major member of Baroque Works, the individual won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. Considering season 2 set to cover the Little Garden arc, this marks a notable change in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could indicate further changes to the plot development.
The actor’s combination of excellent comedic sense and deep sensitivity makes them a standout choice for the part. In addition to their current animated role in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and multiple awards for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded characters.
Netflix's live-action One Piece show is due to premiere for its second season on March 10th, 2026.
