The Streaming Giant Selects Perfect Actor for Bon Clay in the Hit Series Season 3
Baroque Works is poised to make a major impact in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until season 3, and a adored, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.
The platform declared recently that the skilled actor has joined the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bentham. The role can use their power to change into an identical duplicate of anyone they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will play a version of that figure reimagined as gender non-binary, rather than as a drag performer, in the live-action show, differing from the original manga and anime.
The new cast member joins multiple fresh additions tasked with bringing the organization to the screen, featuring chief the main antagonist, brought to life by Joe Manganiello, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who also joins the ensemble as the monarch of Alabasta.
Though this character is a key figure of the organization, the character will be introduced in One Piece season 3. Considering the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden arc, this marks a major departure in the schedule of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could indicate further changes to the plot development.
The actor’s combination of sharp comedic timing and emotional depth makes them a standout choice for the character. Along with their recent voice performance in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and multiple awards for creating and performing in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s highly regarded characters.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece program is scheduled to come back for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
