Netflix Selects Perfect Performer for Bentham in One Piece Season 3
Baroque Works is geared up to exert significant influence in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, although the true confrontation won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.
The streaming service revealed recently that the skilled actor is now part of the One Piece cast for the third season and will play Bon Clay. The role possesses the power to change into an perfect replica of anyone they’ve made contact with with their dominant hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a version of that character re-envisioned as gender non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action show, differing from the original manga and animated series.
The new cast member will work alongside a number of recently announced actors who will portray Baroque Works to life, featuring chief Sir Crocodile, played by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and a familiar face, who also joins the ensemble as King Nefertari Cobra of the desert kingdom.
Even though this character is a important part of the group, the character won’t make their debut One Piece the third season. Considering the second season expected to adapt the Little Garden arc, this signals a significant shift in the schedule of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal more adjustments to the plot development.
Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a standout choice for the character. In addition to their recent voice performance in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and numerous honors for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated figures.
Netflix's live-action One Piece show is due to premiere for its next installment on the tenth of March, 2026.
