The Streaming Giant Chooses Perfect Performer for Bon Clay in One Piece Upcoming Installment
Baroque Works is geared up to play a huge role in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, although the real showdown won’t take place until the third season, and a cherished, popular member has now been chosen.
The platform declared this week that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bon Clay. Bon Clay possesses the power to change into an perfect replica of any individual they’ve made contact with with their main hand. Escola, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a version of that figure reimagined as gender non-binary, as opposed to as a drag queen, in the live-action series, as in the original manga and animated series.
This performer is joined by multiple new cast members who will portray the group to reality, featuring leader the main antagonist, brought to life by the seasoned performer, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who is also part of the cast as the ruler of Alabasta.
Even though the role is a important part of the organization, the persona won’t appear until One Piece season 3. Considering the second season expected to adapt the Little Garden storyline, this marks a significant shift in the schedule of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal additional alterations to the narrative framework.
Escola’s blend of sharp comedic timing and deep sensitivity makes them a standout choice for the character. In addition to their recent voice performance in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and several accolades for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s most celebrated roles.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece program is due to premiere for its season two on the tenth of March, 2026.
