The Streaming Giant Chooses Spot-On Performer for Bentham in the Hit Series Season 3
Baroque Works is set to exert significant influence in the next installment of Netflix’s show of One Piece, though the real showdown isn’t set to occur until the third season, and a cherished, popular member has now been chosen.
Netflix announced Tuesday that the talented performer will appear in the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will play Bentham. Bon Clay possesses the power to transform into an exact copy of anyone they’ve made contact with with their right hand. The performer, who is non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a version of that figure reinterpreted as non-binary, instead of as a drag queen, in the live-action show, as in the initial comic and animated series.
This performer will work alongside a number of fresh additions set to bring the organization to life, including head the main antagonist, brought to life by the seasoned performer, a talented actress as a key member, and a familiar face, who is also part of the lineup as King Nefertari Cobra of Alabasta.
Although the role is a important part of Baroque Works, the individual won’t make their debut One Piece the upcoming installment. Given the next season likely to portray the Little Garden storyline, this marks a notable change in the timing of their first appearance, one that could suggest additional alterations to the plot development.
Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a ideal selection for the role. Besides their recent voice performance in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they received high praise and multiple awards for penning and acting in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, emphasizing the adaptability they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s widely praised characters.
The platform’s adapted One Piece show is set to return for its second season on the tenth of March, 2026.
