The Secret Organization is set to make a major impact in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, though the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until the next season, and a adored, audience-beloved member has now been chosen.

The platform declared recently that the skilled actor has joined the One Piece cast for the third season and will play Mr. 2. This character has the ability to change into an identical duplicate of any person they’ve touched with their main hand. Escola, who is identifies as non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a version of that figure reinterpreted as gender non-binary, instead of as a drag queen, in the real-life adaptation, as in the source material and cartoon version.

Escola is joined by several other recently announced actors who will portray the group to reality, such as leader the main antagonist, brought to life by the well-known actor, a talented actress as another operative, and an accomplished actor, who is also part of the ensemble as King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta.

Although Bon Clay is a major member of the group, the individual won’t appear until One Piece the upcoming installment. With season 2 set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this marks a significant shift in the placement of their first appearance, one that could indicate further changes to the plot development.

The actor’s combination of sharp comedic timing and deep sensitivity makes them a ideal selection for the character. Besides their latest vocal work in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and several accolades for penning and acting in the popular theatrical show Oh Mary!, emphasizing the adaptability they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised characters.

The platform’s adapted One Piece program is scheduled to come back for its second season on March 10, 2026.
