The Streaming Giant Selects Perfect Performer for Bon Clay in the Hit Series Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is poised to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the true confrontation won’t take place until the third season, and a cherished, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.
Netflix announced recently that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will portray Mr. 2. Bon Clay possesses the power to transform into an identical duplicate of any person they’ve made contact with with their main hand. The actor, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a rendition of that figure re-envisioned as non-binary identifying, rather than as a drag queen, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the source material and cartoon version.
Escola will work alongside multiple recently announced actors who will portray Baroque Works to the screen, such as chief the main antagonist, played by Joe Manganiello, a talented actress as a key member, and an accomplished actor, who will appear as the cast as the monarch of the desert kingdom.
Though the role is a major member of Baroque Works, the persona will be introduced in One Piece the third season. Considering the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden segment, this represents a significant shift in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could suggest additional alterations to the story’s structure.
Escola’s blend of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a standout choice for the role. Along with their latest vocal work in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and numerous honors for penning and acting in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece show is due to premiere for its second season on March 10, 2026.
