Season 1 of the series starred Iñaki Godoy (Monkey D. Luffy), Emily Rudd (Nami), Mackenyu (Zoro), Taz Skylar (Sanji), and Jeff Ward (Buggy the Clown) among others playing the lead roles. Well, most of the cast is expected to reprise their roles, here’s some of the new members joining the band of pirates and enemies.

Callum Kerr as Smoker

Fans were curious to see who would play Smoker in the live adaptation as producers of the show had teased him in the Season 1 finale. Callum Kerr (Monarch) will be playing the role of Smoker and we expect him to be the main antagonist in One Piece Season 2.

Julia Rehwald as Tashigi

Julia Rehwald (Fear Street trilogy) will play the role of the marine officer who serves under Smoker. She is another antagonist, but it is unclear what the writers of the series have in store for her.

Rob Colletti as Wapol

Theatre artist Rob Colleti will be playing as Wapol the former monarch of the Drum Kingdom. He is one of the main antagonists of the Drum Island Arc in the manga. Actor Rob Colleti who will be playing his role, is best known for productions like ‘School of Rock: The Musical’ and ‘The Book of Mormon’.

The South African actor, best known for his roles in the series 24 Hours to Live and Dominion will be playing Dalton, the elected king of the Sakura Kingdom. In the manga, Dalton is an ally to the Straw Hat Pirates. Dalton was a former Royal Guard who served under Wapol, we do expect some screen time to be shared between him and Rob Colletti.
