Fans of Netflix’s manga and anime adaptation One Piece had to cope with the nasty news this week that Oscar winner Jamie Lee Curtis will not appear as Dr. Kuleha as planned.
You better sit down first, because we have some more bad news for friends of the seaman’s yarn about the Straw Hat Pirates. What you need now is patience.
The second season of One Piece will come to Netflix in 2025 at the earliest – or later
This year, there will definitely be no more One Piece restocks. This much was made clear in an interview with producer Becky Clements from ITV Studios (via Collider ). She revealed that season 2 will be filmed until December 2024. With new episodes, not before 2025 If the post-production Klabautermann interferes, maybe even later:
It’s a very VFX-heavy year, so it’s going to take a while. We’re still a long way from completion.
Some hope for a shorter waiting time between seasons 2 and 3 of One Piece was at least made by Patty actor Brashaad Mayweather. He recently told ComicBook that both will be filmed one after the other. Netflix has not yet officially confirmed a third season, but given the great popularity of the format, further episodes could well be in the works. But keep the rum for the celebratory toast locked up for now.
