Netflix's OnePiece might be rolling cameras relatively soon!
✖ The world of One Piece is currently exploring the epic battle between the Straw Hat Pirates and the Beast Pirates via the War For Wano Arc, seeing Luffy and his crew face off against Kaido and his ruthless swashbucklers, though the pirates of the Grand Line are set to arrive in a unique new story via Netflix's live-action series.
For those who might not have kept up with the casting of the Straw Hat Pirates for the upcoming live-action adaptation, Luffy and his crew have been revealed with Iñaki Godoy as Monkey D. Luffy, Mackenyu as Roronoa Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero Gibson as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji.
Production Weekly shared the news that One Piece's live-action series will begin filming in the spring/summer of this year, with the filming set to take place in South Africa which will apparently follow the events of the East Blue Arc and unite the Straw Hat Pirates for the first time. This won't be the first time that Netflix has created a live-action series using an anime series as its source material, with the most recent take on Cowboy Bebop causing quite the controversy with its recent cancellation. Though the story of the Bebop might have come to an end on the streaming service, Netflix is currently working on other such properties via the likes of Avatar The Last Airbender and Yu Yu Hakusho to name a few.
Are you excited for this new take on Luffy and friends? Do you think that live-action anime adaptations should continue? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of the Grand Line.
