This arc features battles against powerful Baroque Works agents and the crew’s efforts to protect the kingdom.
With the story set, here’s a full look at the confirmed One Piece live action season 3 cast and the roles they are playing.
One Piece live action season 3 cast members: all new actors in the Netflix series
Cole Escola as Bon Clay
Cole Escola joins the One Piece live action season 3 cast as Bon Clay, a character first seen in the Arabasta arc.
Also called Mr. 2, Bon Clay is part of Baroque Works, a secret criminal group led by Mr. 0. He is known for his flamboyant personality and strong belief in freedom and self-expression.
He ate the Clone-Clone Fruit, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that lets him transform into anyone whose face he has touched. This power made him an expert spy and infiltrator for Baroque Works.
Cole is an actor, comedian, singer, and playwright known for his work in Difficult People, At Home with Amy Sedaris, Search Party, and Big Mouth. He also voices Goldie in Baby Shark’s Big Show! and won a Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play for Oh, Mary!
The casting fits perfectly as Cole, who identifies as non-binary, portrays Bon Clay, the first canon queer character in One Piece, bringing authentic LGBTQ+ representation to the series.
Xolo Mariduena as Ace
Blue Beetle star Xolo Mariduena plays Portgas D. Ace in the One Piece Netflix series.
Ace is the older brother of Luffy. He is the son of the late Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, but was raised by Monkey D. Garp alongside Luffy.
He is the captain of the Spade Pirates and is known for his Logia-type Flame-Flame Fruit, which gives him the ability to create and control fire.
Xolo, the actor for Ace, is known for his roles as Miguel Diaz in Cobra Kai and Jaime Reyes in Blue Beetle. Fans have long supported him as a top choice for the role, noting his physical resemblance to Inaki Godoy, who plays Luffy, and their brotherly chemistry.
