Netflix Chooses Spot-On Star for Bon Clay in the Hit Series Season 3

The Secret Organization is geared up to exert significant influence in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, even if the real showdown won’t take place until the next season, and a beloved, popular member has recently been selected.

The streaming service revealed Tuesday that the talented performer will appear in the One Piece cast for the third season and will portray Bentham. The role can use their power to morph into an perfect replica 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 portray a version of that figure reimagined as non-binary, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, as in the original manga and cartoon version.

This performer joins several other fresh additions set to bring the group to reality, featuring leader Mr. 0, played by Joe Manganiello, a talented actress as Miss Goldenweek, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who also joins the ensemble as King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta.

Though Bon Clay is a important part of the organization, the persona won’t make their debut One Piece the upcoming installment. Given the next season set to cover the Little Garden arc, this signals a notable change in the schedule of the character’s debut, one that could indicate further changes to the narrative framework.

The actor’s combination of sharp comedic timing and emotional depth makes them a standout choice for the part. Along with their current animated role in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and numerous honors for writing and starring in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised figures.

The platform’s adapted One Piece series is set to return for its season two on the tenth of March, 2026.
