The Streaming Giant Chooses Perfect Actor for Mr. 2 in One Piece Upcoming Installment

The Secret Organization is set to make a major impact in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, although the major clash won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, fan-favorite member has recently been selected.

The platform declared this week that the skilled actor has joined the One Piece cast for the third season and will play Bentham. The role can use their power to transform into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve made contact with with their dominant hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a version of that role reimagined as non-binary identifying, rather than as a drag queen, in the live-action show, unlike the initial comic and anime.

The new cast member joins a number of recently announced actors who will portray Baroque Works to the screen, including leader the main antagonist, portrayed by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the cast as the monarch of Alabasta.

Although the role is a major member of the organization, the individual won’t appear until One Piece season 3. Considering the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden arc, this represents a significant shift in the schedule of the character’s debut, one that could signal further changes to the plot development.

The actor’s combination of excellent comedic sense and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the part. Along with their recent voice performance in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for writing and starring in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, emphasizing the range they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated roles.

Netflix's live-action One Piece show is due to premiere for its season two on March 10th, 2026.
