Netflix Casts Ideal Performer for Bentham in One Piece Season 3
The Secret Organization is poised to play a huge role in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a cherished, popular member has now been chosen.
Netflix announced recently that the talented performer will appear in the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bentham. The role possesses the power to transform into an perfect replica of anyone they’ve made contact with with their main hand. Escola, who is gender non-conforming and uses they/them pronouns, will play a interpretation of that role reimagined as non-binary, as opposed to as a drag artist, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the source material and anime.
Escola is joined by a number of fresh additions set to bring the group to the screen, featuring chief Sir Crocodile, portrayed by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who is also part of the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta.
Even though Bon Clay is a major member of the organization, the individual will be introduced in One Piece the third season. Considering the next season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this marks a notable change in the schedule of the character’s debut, one that could suggest further changes to the story’s structure.
Their mix of sharp comedic timing and deep sensitivity makes them a standout choice for the part. Besides their latest vocal work in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised roles.
Netflix's live-action One Piece program is set to return for its next installment on March 10, 2026.
