Netflix Casts Ideal Star for Bentham in the Hit Series Upcoming Installment
The Secret Organization is poised to make a major impact in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, although the major clash won’t unfold until the third season, and a cherished, audience-beloved member has just been cast.
The streaming service revealed this week that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bentham. The role has the ability to change into an identical duplicate of any individual they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. Escola, who is non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a rendition of that character reimagined as non-binary, as opposed to as a drag queen, in the real-life adaptation, as in the original manga and cartoon version.
Escola will work alongside several other recently announced actors tasked with bringing Baroque Works to life, including chief Mr. 0, portrayed by the seasoned performer, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and a familiar face, who also joins the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta.
Even though the role is a key figure of the group, the character will be introduced in One Piece the upcoming installment. Considering the second season expected to adapt the Little Garden storyline, this marks a notable change in the timing of the character’s debut, one that could suggest further changes to the plot development.
The actor’s combination of excellent comedic sense and deep sensitivity makes them a ideal selection for the part. Along with their current animated role in the animated feature Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and numerous honors for penning and acting in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, showcasing the range they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s most celebrated roles.
The platform’s adapted One Piece series is set to return for its season two on the tenth of March, 2026.
