Netflix removes release window for One Piece Live-action Season 2
At the recent Tudum event, Netflix revealed an exciting collaboration between Eiichiro Oda's One Piece live-action series and LEGO, with new toy sets on the way. The announcement also teased a 2025 release window for season 2, though Netflix quickly removed the date, sparking speculation that it may have been an accidental leak.
The sudden removal has certainly made fans of the series anxious as they speculate the reason behind the streaming giant’s action. Many believe that the action suggests that the production of the live-action will go beyond 2025 thus postponing its release to next year, as reported by Sportskeeda. Netflix has not provided any explanation to the fans yet.
This was followed by an earlier September 2024 reveal from Oda himself, who confirmed the sequel’s development with a special video. Fans were further thrilled by the addition of new cast members, including Rigo Sanchez as Monkey D. Dragon, Joe Manganiello as Mr. 0 (Crocodile), Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek, and Yonda Thomas as Ingram, raising anticipation for the next chapter of the live-action series.

They would very much like a 2025 release date. Problem is that they know it very much might not be finished by then.”

Another user wrote, “I really wish Netflix wouldn't take 2 or 3 years to release an 8 episode season," to which one user replied, “Unfortunately 2-3 years just seems to be the standard for production’s of this size now. Especially on a show like this that will be changing most of the sets and casts every season.”
