The Secret Organization is geared up to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the major clash won’t unfold until season 3, and a cherished, popular member has now been chosen.

Netflix announced this week that Cole Escola is now part of the One Piece cast for the third season and will play Mr. 2. The role possesses the power to morph into an exact copy of any individual they’ve touched with their right hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that character reimagined as gender non-binary, as opposed to as a drag queen, in the live-action series, as in the source material and cartoon version.

This performer joins several other recently announced actors who will portray Baroque Works to the screen, featuring leader the main antagonist, brought to life by the seasoned performer, an emerging star as a key member, and a familiar face, who will appear as the ensemble as the monarch of the fictional land.

Even though Bon Clay is a major member of Baroque Works, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece the third season. Considering the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden arc, this marks a major departure in the timing of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal more adjustments to the plot development.

Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a perfect fit for the character. Besides their recent voice performance in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and several accolades for penning and acting in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.

The platform’s adapted One Piece program is set to return for its season two on the tenth of March, 2026.
