This week Magic Mike star Joe Manganiello has been hosting Netflix’s Geeked Week event. The streaming service has now announced that Joe Manganiello and Lera Abova have joined the cast of One Piece season 2. They will both play Mr. O/Crocodile and Miss All Sunday from the manga. Manganiello has long been fan-cast for a role in the series as a fan of the original manga.
What is exciting is that fans have also fancast Xolo Maridueña (Blue Beetle, Cobra Kai) in the series as Luffy’s older brother Ace. Netflix instead decided to do a fun Cobra Kai final season set to visit with Xolo and Iñaki Godoy (via YouTube). Together, both actors for this promo could be teasing what’s to come in One Piece season 2. Production is currently underway in Capetown, South Africa.
One Piece is expected to return to Netflix sometime in late 2025
It’s official!
