The Streaming Giant Selects Spot-On Performer for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Third Season
The Secret Organization is geared up to play a huge role in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the real showdown won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, audience-beloved member has now been chosen.
The platform declared recently that the talented performer has joined the One Piece season 3 cast and will play Mr. 2. Bon Clay has the ability to morph into an perfect replica of any person they’ve touched with their main hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will depict a rendition of that figure reimagined as gender non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action series, unlike the original manga and cartoon version.
Escola joins multiple new cast members set to bring Baroque Works to the screen, featuring head Sir Crocodile, portrayed by the well-known actor, a talented actress as another operative, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who will appear as the lineup as the ruler of the fictional land.
Though the role is a key figure of Baroque Works, the persona won’t appear until One Piece season 3. Considering the second season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this signals a significant shift in the placement of their first appearance, one that could signal more adjustments to the story’s structure.
Escola’s blend of sharp comedic timing and emotional depth makes them a perfect fit for the role. In addition to their current animated role in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for creating and performing in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the range they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece show is scheduled to come back for its season two on March 10th, 2026.
