Netflix Chooses Spot-On Performer for Bentham in One Piece Third Season

The Secret Organization is set to make a major impact in Netflix’s upcoming season of One Piece, even if the major clash won’t unfold until season 3, and a adored, audience-beloved member has now been chosen.

The streaming service revealed this week that the talented performer has joined the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will embody Bon Clay. Bon Clay can use their power to morph into an identical duplicate of anyone they’ve made contact with with their main hand. The actor, who is identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, will depict a version of that role reinterpreted as gender non-binary, as opposed to as a drag artist, in the real-life adaptation, unlike the source material and anime.

The new cast member joins a number of recently announced actors set to bring Baroque Works to reality, featuring leader Mr. 0, portrayed by Joe Manganiello, Sophia Anne Caruso as a key member, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, who is also part of the ensemble as the ruler of the desert kingdom.

Though this character is a major member of the group, the character will be introduced in One Piece season 3. With the next season likely to portray the Little Garden segment, this marks a major departure in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could suggest additional alterations to the plot development.

The actor’s combination of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a ideal selection for the role. In addition to their recent voice performance in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, emphasizing the adaptability they’ll add to one of One Piece’s most celebrated figures.

The platform’s adapted One Piece show is due to premiere for its season two on March 10th, 2026.
