Netflix’s live-action version of *One Piece* is proving popular, staying true to the original story created by Eiichiro Oda. It’s no surprise then that a second season is planned, and it will feature some well-known villains. Callum Kerr and Julia Rehwald will play Smoker and Tashigi, two military officers determined to halt the Straw Hat Pirates’ adventure. The actors recently shared their excitement about the roles and gave fans a first look at Smoker’s signature Billower Bike.
It’s amazing how closely Smoker’s Billower Bike resembles something straight out of the *One Piece* manga. I was listening to Kerr talk about the second season, and he shared the scene he’s most excited for as Smoker. He described how a little girl spills ice cream on his pants, messing up his buttons, and the funny interaction that follows – him trying to maintain composure while she points out he’s missing buttons. Meanwhile, Julia Rehwald was really eager to see how her fight scene with Zoro played out. She’d been training for it and particularly enjoyed the scene right before they leave town, where her character insists on going with Zoro even though he’s trying to leave without her.
Smoker’s Debut
Callum Kerr and Julia Rehwald chatted with Justice about getting their parts and some fun highlights from Season 2, all while riding the Billower Bike on set.

Tashigi is a skilled and loyal soldier, but she’s significantly less powerful than her superior, Smoker. Smoker’s ability to control and become smoke, gained from eating the Moku Moku no Mi Devil Fruit, explains his constant cigar smoking. Interestingly, Smoker was teased at the end of the first season, though his actor wasn’t confirmed then. Now, with trailers for the second season, we know Kerr will be playing the villain.
Fans are still waiting to find out when the second season of *One Piece* will be released on Netflix. While a new season is confirmed for next year, Netflix hasn’t announced a specific date yet. The upcoming episodes will cover story arcs like Loguetown, Whiskey Peak, Reverse Mountain, and Drum Island, among others.
I’ve noticed a lot of One Piece fans are speculating about Smoker and Tashigi – they’re definitely important characters beyond what we’ve seen so far. It seems very likely that Kerr and Rehwald will also appear in the third season of the live-action show, especially since it looks like those episodes will cover the Alabasta arc. It just makes sense given their roles in that storyline.
