Netflix Selects Spot-On Star for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Third Season

Baroque Works is set to exert significant influence in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the major clash isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a cherished, popular member has recently been selected.

The platform declared recently that the skilled actor is now part of the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bentham. The role can use their power to morph into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve made contact with with their right hand. The actor, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will portray a version of that character re-envisioned as non-binary identifying, as opposed to as a drag queen, in the live-action show, unlike the original manga and anime.

This performer will work alongside a number of new cast members tasked with bringing the group to reality, featuring chief Sir Crocodile, brought to life by Joe Manganiello, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and a familiar face, who is also part of the lineup as the ruler of Alabasta.

Though the role is a important part of the organization, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece the third season. With the second season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this represents a major departure in the schedule of the character’s debut, one that could indicate additional alterations to the story’s structure.

Their mix of sharp comedic timing and emotional depth makes them a perfect fit for the role. Along with their current animated role in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded roles.

The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is set to return for its second season on March 10, 2026.
