The Secret Organization is poised to exert significant influence in the forthcoming season on Netflix of One Piece, even if the true confrontation isn’t set to occur until the third season, and a adored, fan-favorite member has now been chosen.

The streaming service revealed this week that the skilled actor will appear in the One Piece cast for the third season and will embody Bentham. The role has the ability to change into an exact copy of anyone they’ve laid a hand on with their right hand. The actor, who is non-binary and prefers they/them pronouns, will depict a version of that character reinterpreted as gender non-binary, instead of as a drag artist, in the live-action show, unlike the initial comic and animated series.

This performer joins several other new cast members tasked with bringing the organization to reality, featuring chief Sir Crocodile, brought to life by Joe Manganiello, Sophia Anne Caruso as another operative, and a familiar face, who is also part of the ensemble as the ruler of the fictional land.

Even though Bon Clay is a major member of the organization, the individual will be introduced in One Piece season 3. Given the second season set to cover the Little Garden storyline, this represents a major departure in the timing of the character’s debut, one that could indicate more adjustments to the plot development.

Their mix of excellent comedic sense and profound feeling makes them a perfect fit for the character. In addition to their latest vocal work in the youth-focused cartoon movie Boys Go to Jupiter, they garnered significant recognition and multiple awards for creating and performing in the hit comedy play Oh Mary!, highlighting the versatility they’ll bring to one of One Piece’s most celebrated roles.

The streaming service’s real-life One Piece show is due to premiere for its next installment on March 10th, 2026.
