One Piece live-action cast has already been decided, so here's a refresher of what to expect in the Netflix series.

Fans are still waiting for an official trailer for this highly anticipated series. Very little is known about it, but the One Piece live-action cast is looking good right now. Most of the actors look like they were born to play these roles.

All eyes are on the One Piece live-action series' costume department since costume and styling are the most important aspects of the production. If the show is to capture the essence of the manga or anime, the characters mustn't exhibit any hint of tackiness under any circumstances. It seems that the producers are not disappointed.

The first season of the live-action adaptation will have ten episodes which will be produced by Tomorrow Studios, a partnership between producer Marty Adelstein of Prison Break fame and ITV Studios.

Matt Owens, who worked on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., is the show's writer. Eiichiro Oda will serve as an executive producer, along with Steven Maeda and Becky Clements.

When is Netflix going to launch the series?

As of December 23, 2022, Netflix has yet to confirm a set release date. The One Piece live action cast recently said their goodbyes back in September, which suggests they wrapped up the first season. Netflix will likely make some type of announcement in 2023.

It remains to be seen what the future holds for this streaming television series. Netflix has the unenviable task of adapting the best-selling manga in history. Expectations will be high when the first season is finally released.


Post the release of One Piece live-action, the cast has garnered a lot of praise. The five Straw Hat crew especially have stolen the show and done justice to their roles. Godoy as Luffy, Mackenyu as Zoro, and Rudd as Nami particularly have the most screentime and manage to make the greatest impression.
