The Streaming Giant Chooses Ideal Performer for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Third Season

The Secret Organization is poised to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, although the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a cherished, fan-favorite member has just been cast.

Netflix announced recently that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bon Clay. This character can use their power to transform into an identical duplicate of any person they’ve made contact with with their right hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will portray a version of that figure re-envisioned as non-binary identifying, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the source material and animated series.

The new cast member is joined by a number of fresh additions set to bring the group to the screen, featuring chief the main antagonist, brought to life by Joe Manganiello, an emerging star as another operative, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who also joins the lineup as the ruler of Alabasta.

Though Bon Clay is a major member of the group, the persona will be introduced in One Piece the third season. Given season 2 set to cover the Little Garden segment, this marks a significant shift in the schedule of the character’s debut, one that could signal further changes to the plot development.

Their mix of sharp comedic timing and emotional depth makes them a ideal selection for the part. Besides their current animated role in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and multiple awards for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded characters.

The streaming service’s real-life One Piece show is scheduled to come back for its second season on March 10th, 2026.
