As a dedicated fan of One Piece, I couldn’t contain my excitement when I heard that Netflix’s live-action adaptation has started filming its new season. The anticipation surrounding this series has reached an all-time high after the successful premiere of the first season. With big sets and new stars on board, it seems that Netflix is leaving no stone unturned to bring Monkey D. Luffy’s epic pirate adventure to life in a whole new way.
The upcoming season of Netflix’s “One Piece” is now under production, generating immense anticipation. Following the successful debut, this live-action adaptation has left a lasting impression, and Netflix has shared some intriguing details about the second season. Preparations for season two are in full swing, with grand sets and fresh faces on board. A recent announcement hints that Netflix may have finally cast Portgas D. Ace for their “One Piece” series.
The report originates from abroad where the well-known web series OUKE recently premiered, featuring actor Mario Cortijo. During the event, Cortijo discussed his upcoming projects. The conversation then turned towards the challenges actors encounter when portraying characters of diverse ethnicities. At this point, Netflix’s “One Piece” was brought up. According to Cortijo, Xolo Mariduena (known for “Cobra Kai” and “Blue Beetle”) has been selected to play Ace in the live-action adaptation.
“Cortijo expressed his concern about being typecast based on his appearance or origin. For instance, in ‘One Piece,’ fans believe that Lucas Amorim, who is Brazilian, should portray the character Ace. However, it’s Xolo Mariduena, who is Mexican, who will be playing this role despite being Brazilian himself.”
The OUKE show’s emcee added, “I’ve learned that Xolo, your acquaintance, appeared in ‘Blue Beetle’ and ‘Cobra Kai.’ Surprisingly, not many were aware that he would join the cast of ‘One Piece.'”
“Oh, then I shouldn’t have said that,” Cortijo confessed.
To clarify, no definitive announcement has been made by Netflix or Shueisha regarding who will portray Ace in the upcoming live-action adaptation of “One Piece.” Although new cast members have been added for season two, there is still no confirmed information about Luffy’s older brother. It’s uncertain if Ace will make an appearance in season two at all, but given the pace of season one, it’s reasonable to assume that the storyline may progress to the Alabasta saga by the end of this season.
Currently, Netflix’s “One Piece” is grabbing everyone’s attention due to its impressive popularity. If you haven’t watched it yet, you can easily access it on Netflix. For further details about Oda’s renowned tale, please find the official synopsis provided below:
In his childhood, Monkey D. Luffy was motivated by the stories of the pirate “Red-Haired” Shanks to pursue a life at sea as a buccaneer. However, Luffy’s plans were altered when he consumed the Devil Fruit called Gum-Gum unintentionally, gaining the ability to elongate his body like rubber but losing the capacity to swim in the process. Despite this setback, Luffy remained determined to follow his dream of being named the Pirate King. Years later, embarking on his journey alone in a small rowboat, he searches for the fabled “One Piece,” believed to be the most valuable treasure in existence.
