The Streaming Giant Selects Perfect Actor for Bon Clay in the Hit Series Season 3
The Secret Organization is poised to play a huge role in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the real showdown won’t take place until the next season, and a beloved, fan-favorite member has just been cast.
Netflix announced this week that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will portray Mr. 2. This character can use their power to transform into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve touched with their right hand. Escola, who is non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that figure reimagined as non-binary, instead of as a drag queen, in the live-action show, differing from the source material and animated series.
The new cast member joins multiple new cast members who will portray the organization to life, such as chief Mr. 0, brought to life by the seasoned performer, a talented actress as a key member, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who will appear as the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of the desert kingdom.
Even though the role is a important part of Baroque Works, the character won’t make their debut One Piece season 3. Given the next season set to cover the Little Garden segment, this signals a significant shift in the timing of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal more adjustments to the narrative framework.
Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a ideal selection for the character. Along with their recent voice performance in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and numerous honors for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s widely praised roles.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is set to return for its second season on the tenth of March, 2026.
