The Streaming Giant Casts Ideal Performer for Bentham in the Hit Series Season 3
Baroque Works is geared up to exert significant influence in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, even if the real showdown isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a adored, audience-beloved member has now been chosen.
The platform declared this week that the talented performer has joined the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will play Bentham. The role possesses the power to transform into an exact copy of any person they’ve made contact with with their main hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will portray a interpretation of that figure reinterpreted as non-binary identifying, instead of as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the original manga and anime.
The new cast member will work alongside a number of new cast members set to bring Baroque Works to reality, including leader Sir Crocodile, brought to life by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and an accomplished actor, who will appear as the cast as King Nefertari Cobra of the fictional land.
Though the role is a major member of the group, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece the upcoming installment. Given the next season expected to adapt the Little Garden segment, this signals a significant shift in the schedule of Bon Clay’s introduction, one that could signal further changes to the story’s structure.
Their mix of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the part. Besides their latest vocal work in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and numerous honors for writing and starring in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s widely praised figures.
The streaming service’s real-life One Piece program is set to return for its second season on the tenth of March, 2026.
