The Streaming Giant Selects Ideal Star for Mr. 2 in the Hit Series Third Season
The Secret Organization is geared up to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the true confrontation won’t unfold until the third season, and a adored, popular member has now been chosen.
Netflix announced Tuesday that the talented performer is now part of the One Piece season 3 cast and will play Mr. 2. This character can use their power to change into an perfect replica of anyone they’ve made contact with with their dominant hand. The performer, who is gender non-conforming and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a rendition of that role re-envisioned as non-binary identifying, instead of as a drag queen, in the real-life adaptation, as in the original manga and anime.
Escola joins several other fresh additions set to bring the group to reality, including chief Sir Crocodile, played by the well-known actor, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and a familiar face, who also joins the ensemble as the monarch of the desert kingdom.
Even though this character is a major member of Baroque Works, the character won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. Given season 2 likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this marks a significant shift in the placement of the character’s debut, one that could signal further changes to the plot development.
Their mix of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the role. In addition to their recent voice performance in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and multiple awards for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, emphasizing the versatility they’ll contribute to one of One Piece’s highly regarded figures.
The platform’s adapted One Piece show is scheduled to come back for its second season on March 10, 2026.
