Netflix has released a new teaser trailer for the highly-anticipated second season of its live-action adaptation of ONE PIECE, giving viewers their first glimpse of the formidable criminal syndicate known as Baroque Works. The brief teaser highlights the dangerous secret society of assassins standing in the way of Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates as they venture deeper into uncharted waters. Titled ONE PIECE: Into the Grand Line, the upcoming season builds on the massive success of the first, which captivated audiences worldwide upon its 2023 debut.
The second installment of the live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s record-breaking manga series will follow the dangerous secret society of assassins known as Baroque Works, featuring Charithra Chandran as Miss Wednesday, Lera Abova as Miss All-Sunday, David Dastmalchian as Mr. 3, Camrus Johnson as Mr. 5, Jazzara Jaslyn as Miss Valentine, Daniel Lasker as Mr. 9, and Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek.
These new additions join the returning core cast, including Iñaki Godoy as the optimistic and stretchy captain Monkey D. Luffy, Mackenyu as the skilled swordsman Roronoa Zoro, Emily Rudd as the clever navigator Nami, Taz Skylar as the masterful chef Sanji, and Jacob Romero as the sharpshooting storyteller Usopp. The series continues to chart the Straw Hats' ambitious journey across treacherous seas in pursuit of the legendary treasure known as the One Piece, with Luffy determined to claim the title of King of the Pirates.
Season 2 promises fiercer adversaries and more perilous quests as the crew sails into the legendary Grand Line—a vast and unpredictable stretch of ocean filled with bizarre islands, extraordinary challenges, and escalating threats. The narrative arc draws from key portions of Oda's original manga, introducing new environments and escalating the stakes for the young pirates. Production remains a collaboration between Netflix, Tomorrow Studios (an ITV Studios partner), and Shueisha, with co-showrunners Matt Owens and Joe Tracz leading the writing and executive production efforts for this season. The involvement of series creator Eiichiro Oda as an executive producer ensures the adaptation stays true to the spirit and details of the source material that has sold millions of copies globally and become one of the most influential manga series in history.
The first season's runaway popularity set a high bar: it topped Netflix’s Global Top 10 for eight consecutive weeks, reached No. 1 in over 75 countries, and made history as the first Netflix English-language series to debut at the top spot in Japan. It also earned 11 nominations at the Children’s & Family Emmy Awards, including for Outstanding Young Teen Series. This success quickly led to a renewal for Season 2, with filming taking place in locations including Cape Town, South Africa, where the team recreated diverse and imaginative settings to bring the manga's fantastical world to life. The renewal momentum continued even further, as Netflix has already greenlit a third season, signaling strong confidence in the franchise's longevity.
With practical effects, elaborate sets, and a commitment to capturing the adventurous heart of the original story, ONE PIECE has stood out among live-action anime adaptations. The teaser serves as an exciting preview of the expanded world awaiting fans, introducing shadowy organizations and complex characters that will test the Straw Hats like never before.
ONE PIECE Season 2 is set to premiere on March 10, 2026, exclusively on Netflix, with all episodes dropping at once for viewers to binge the next chapter of Luffy's epic voyage.
