Netflix Casts Ideal Performer for Bon Clay in the Hit Series Third Season

Baroque Works is geared up to play a huge role in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until season 3, and a adored, audience-beloved member has just been cast.

The streaming service revealed recently that the talented performer will appear in the One Piece season 3 cast and will portray Bentham. The role can use their power to transform into an perfect replica of any person they’ve touched with their dominant hand. The performer, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that character reimagined as non-binary, instead of as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, as in the original manga and anime.

This performer is joined by several other fresh additions tasked with bringing the group to the screen, including leader the main antagonist, played by the well-known actor, an emerging star as a key member, and an accomplished actor, who also joins the lineup as the ruler of the fictional land.

Even though the role is a important part of the organization, the individual will be introduced in One Piece season 3. Given 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 indicate additional alterations to the story’s structure.

The actor’s combination of sharp comedic timing and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the character. Besides their recent voice performance in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and several accolades for penning and acting in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised characters.

The streaming service’s real-life One Piece show is set to return for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
