The Secret Organization is geared up 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 beloved, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.

The platform declared Tuesday that Cole Escola is now part of the One Piece upcoming season’s lineup and will embody Bentham. The role possesses the power to change into an perfect replica of any person they’ve made contact with with their right hand. The actor, who is non-binary and goes by they/them, will play a interpretation of that figure reimagined as gender non-binary, as opposed to as a drag performer, in the real-life adaptation, as in the initial comic and animated series.

This performer is joined by multiple recently announced actors who will portray the organization to reality, featuring chief the main antagonist, played by the well-known actor, Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and a familiar face, who is also part of the lineup as the ruler of the desert kingdom.

Although Bon Clay is a major member of Baroque Works, the persona will be introduced in One Piece season 3. Given season 2 likely to portray the Little Garden segment, this represents a significant shift in the schedule of their first appearance, one that could indicate more adjustments to the narrative framework.

The actor’s combination of precise humor and deep sensitivity makes them a perfect fit for the character. In addition to their latest vocal work in the animated coming-of-age film Boys Go to Jupiter, they earned widespread acclaim and multiple awards for creating and performing in the successful stage production Oh Mary!, showcasing the adaptability they’ll add to one of One Piece’s widely praised figures.

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