As promised in a handwritten letter by manga creator Eiichiro Oda, new cast members for ONE PIECE Live-Action Season 2 on Netflix have been announced. Katie Sagal will play the role of Dr. Kureha, and Mark Harelik will portray Dr. Hiriluk, both characters appearing in the Drum Island arc, also known as "Winter Island."

Katie Sagal, who will bring Dr. Kureha to life, is a seasoned actress with a long career, including roles in the 1987 film The Good Mother and Pasión (1988). She is also well known for her roles in Sons of Anarchy (2008) and Pitch Perfect 2 (2015).

Mark Harelik, cast as Dr. Hiriluk, is recognized for his role in Jurassic Park III (2001) and has continued to act in notable films like Trumbo (2015) and Battle of the Sexes (2017). With the earlier announcements of Wapol and Dalton, anticipation is high for how the Drum Island arc will be depicted in Season 2. Who will be revealed next? Fans can look forward to more updates in the coming days.

In the world of ONE PIECE, during the Great Pirate Era, a young boy named Luffy, inspired by the great pirate Red-Haired Shanks, dreams of reuniting with him at sea. Years later, Luffy, now grown, embarks on a journey across the vast ocean to become the Pirate King! Along the way, Luffy (played by Iñaki Godoy) meets trustworthy crewmates such as Zoro (Mackenyu), Nami (Emily Rudd), Usopp (Jacob Romero), and Sanji (Taz Skylar).

Season 1 takes place in the East Blue, where intense battles with pirates like Buggy and Arlong are showcased, marking the beginning of the Straw Hat crew's adventure. By the end of the season, Luffy and his crew, who now carry pirate bounties as badges of honor, set off into the Grand Line to pursue their dreams.

Season 2 will explore further adventures in Loguetown, Reverse Mountain (Twin Capes), Whisky Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island, following the bond deepened among the Straw Hat crew in Season 1. What thrilling adventures and challenges await?
