The Secret Organization is set to play a huge role in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the major clash won’t take place until the third season, and a cherished, audience-beloved member has just been cast.

Netflix announced Tuesday that the talented performer has joined the One Piece cast for the third season and will portray Bentham. Bon Clay can use their power to transform into an perfect replica of any person they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. Escola, who is non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that character reinterpreted as non-binary, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the live-action show, as in the initial comic and cartoon version.

This performer joins a number of new cast members tasked with bringing Baroque Works to reality, featuring chief Mr. 0, played by the well-known actor, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the cast as King Nefertari Cobra of the desert kingdom.

Although Bon Clay is a key figure of Baroque Works, the character will be introduced in One Piece the upcoming installment. Considering the second season expected to adapt the Little Garden arc, this signals a major departure in the placement of the character’s debut, one that could indicate further changes to the story’s structure.

Their mix of precise humor and profound feeling makes them a perfect fit for the role. Besides their current animated role in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and numerous honors for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, showcasing the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.

The platform’s adapted One Piece program is scheduled to come back for its next installment on the tenth of March, 2026.
