The Streaming Giant Casts Spot-On Actor for Mr. 2 in One Piece Third Season
The Secret Organization is poised to play a huge role in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the true confrontation won’t take place until the next season, and a beloved, fan-favorite member has recently been selected.
Netflix announced Tuesday that the skilled actor is now part of the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Mr. 2. Bon Clay possesses the power to morph into an exact copy of any individual they’ve made contact with with their main hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a version of that character reinterpreted as non-binary, instead of as a drag performer, in the live-action series, as in the initial comic and animated series.
Escola will work alongside several other recently announced actors set to bring the organization to life, such as head Mr. 0, played by the well-known actor, an emerging star as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who will appear as the lineup as the monarch of the fictional land.
Even though Bon Clay is a key figure of the organization, the individual won’t appear until One Piece the third season. With the next season set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this signals a notable change in the placement of their first appearance, one that could suggest more adjustments to the plot development.
The actor’s combination of precise humor and profound feeling makes them a ideal selection for the part. In addition to their current animated role in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised roles.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece program is set to return for its season two on March 10, 2026.
