Who’s in the cast?

Oda had desperately been in search of an actor to play Luffy’s role in season 1. The creator commented, “My biggest worry about the One Piece Live Action adaptation was whether we would be able to find someone like Luffy. I watched a lot of auditions and when I found Iñaki, I laughed. He was just like the person I drew in the manga. I intuitively thought, ‘That’s Luffy’”

In the recent teaser, the creator hinted that the cast members playing Vivi, Robin and Chopper will be revealed on August 21, 22 and 23, 2024. Meanwhile, Netflix has already announced other additions, Jazzara Jaslyn (Miss Valentine), David Dastmalchian (Mr. 3), Camrus Johnson (Mr. 5), Daniel Lasker (Mr. 9), Brendan Murry (Brogy), Clive Russel (Crocus), Werner Coetser (Dorry), Ty Keogh (Dalton), Callum Kerr (Smoker), Julia Rehwald (Tashigi) and Rob Colletti (Wapol).

Additionally, in an Instagram post today, Netflix revealed that Katey Sagal (Dr. Kureha) and Mark Harelik (Dr. Hiriluk) will also join the project.

The returning crew includes Iñaki Godoy (Luffy), Mackenyu (Zoro), Emily Rudd (Nami), Jacob Romero (Usopp), and Taz Skylar (Sanji).
