One Piece live-action BTS photo leak shows Mackenyu practicing Zoro's Three Sword Style 

A new behind the scenes photo has leaked from Netflix's One Piece live-action series. Mackenyu seems to be starring in the photo, practicing stunts himself instead of a stunt double.

What’s more interesting is that the young actor seems to be practicing Zoro’s Three Sword Style. The biggest implication here is that no stunt double will be used for action sequences.

While it is unconfirmed whether this is Mackenyu or not, this article will assume that is the case. This leak combined with the information we already had on the series, paints a very bright future for the One Piece live-action adaptation.
