The buzz surrounding the second season of "One Piece" on Netflix has just ramped up, with the news that Jamie Lee Curtis could potentially be joining the cast. Co-showrunner Matt Owens revealed that the team has been tailoring the role of Doctor Kureha specifically for the renowned actress. According to Owens, both Curtis and the One Piece team strongly share a mutual interest in collaborating. The ongoing actors' strike has put a pause on the official discussion, but that's not stopping the team from creating a character with Curtis foremost in mind. It all began when Curtis, a self-confessed One Piece fan, received a figurine of the eccentric 139-year-old Doctor Kureha from the Netflix team. The character is pivotal in the manga chapters that season 2 is based on. In response, she posted to Instagram that once the strike is over, she would actively rally with the fan base to earn the role of Doctor Kureha. Owens called this perfect timing, acknowledging that opportunities to stunt-cast roles are crucial. He reiterated his readiness to discuss it further with Curtis once the strike resolves, expressing a strong desire for her to join the show in season 2. "One Piece" premiered on Netflix on August 31, and its second season was promptly greenlit. Production company Tomorrow Studios is optimistic about gearing up for the next season within 18 months of the strike's conclusion. As anticipation builds, fans are speculating how the transition of the reindeer-human hybrid character, Tony Tony Chopper, to live action will be executed. Co-showrunner Steven Maeda admitted it to be a challenge but was optimistic. Watch out for more updates as the One Piece saga continues to unfold.
