Baroque Works is poised to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, although the true confrontation won’t unfold until the next season, and a beloved, audience-beloved member has recently been selected.

The platform declared recently that the skilled actor is now part of the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bentham. Bon Clay has the ability to change into an exact copy of any individual they’ve made contact with with their dominant hand. The actor, who is non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that character reinterpreted as gender non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action series, differing from the initial comic and cartoon version.

The new cast member joins multiple recently announced actors tasked with bringing the organization to reality, featuring head Sir Crocodile, brought to life by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as a key member, and an accomplished actor, who will appear as the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of the fictional land.

Although Bon Clay is a major member of the organization, the persona won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. Considering the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden segment, this marks a notable change in the timing of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal further changes to the narrative framework.

Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a ideal selection for the character. Besides their latest vocal work in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, highlighting the range they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s most celebrated figures.

The platform’s adapted One Piece program is set to return for its season two on March 10, 2026.
