The Streaming Giant Casts Ideal Star for Bentham in One Piece Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is geared up to play a huge role in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the true confrontation won’t take place until season 3, and a adored, audience-beloved member has recently been selected.
The platform declared Tuesday that the talented performer has joined the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Mr. 2. Bon Clay can use their power to morph into an perfect replica of anyone they’ve touched with their right hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a version of that character re-envisioned as non-binary, instead of as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, as in the initial comic and animated series.
Escola is joined by multiple recently announced actors who will portray the organization to reality, featuring head Mr. 0, portrayed by Joe Manganiello, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the cast as the ruler of Alabasta.
Although Bon Clay is a important part of the organization, the individual will be introduced in One Piece the third season. With season 2 expected to adapt the Little Garden segment, this signals a notable change in the timing of the character’s debut, one that could suggest additional alterations to the narrative framework.
Their mix of excellent comedic sense and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the part. Besides their latest vocal work in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and several accolades for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s most celebrated characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece show is set to return for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
