The Secret Organization is set to exert significant influence in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, even if the real showdown won’t take place until the next season, and a adored, popular member has now been chosen.

Netflix announced this week that the talented performer has joined the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will embody Mr. 2. The role can use their power to morph into an identical duplicate of any individual they’ve made contact with with their dominant hand. The performer, who is gender non-conforming and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a interpretation of that figure re-envisioned as gender non-binary, rather than as a drag queen, in the live-action show, as in the source material and anime.

This performer joins multiple recently announced actors tasked with bringing Baroque Works to life, featuring chief Mr. 0, portrayed by Joe Manganiello, an emerging star as Miss Goldenweek, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who will appear as the lineup as the ruler of Alabasta.

Even though this character is a important part of the organization, the character won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. Considering season 2 expected to adapt the Little Garden segment, this signals a notable change in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could signal further changes to the narrative framework.

The actor’s combination of excellent comedic sense and emotional depth makes them a ideal selection for the character. Along with their current animated role in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and numerous honors for creating and performing in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, highlighting the adaptability they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded roles.

Netflix's live-action One Piece program is due to premiere for its next installment on March 10, 2026.
