The Streaming Giant Casts Ideal Actor for Bentham in One Piece Third Season
The Secret Organization is geared up to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the real showdown isn’t set to occur until the third season, and a adored, popular member has recently been selected.
Netflix announced Tuesday that Cole Escola is now part of the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will portray Bentham. Bon Clay has the ability to change into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve laid a hand on with their main hand. Escola, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will portray a version of that role re-envisioned as non-binary, rather than as a drag queen, in the real-life adaptation, differing from the source material and cartoon version.
Escola is joined by multiple fresh additions set to bring the group to reality, featuring chief the main antagonist, brought to life by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the lineup as the ruler of the fictional land.
Even though this character is a major member of Baroque Works, the character won’t appear until One Piece the third season. Considering the second season set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this represents a significant shift in the placement of the character’s debut, 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 role. In addition to their current animated role in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and numerous honors for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the versatility they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s widely praised characters.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece series is scheduled to come back for its second season on March 10th, 2026.
