The production for the much-awaited live action adaptation of One Piece has finally begun. Check out all the updates here.

‘One Piece’ Live Action Production Begins, Luffy Sets Off To Become the Pirate King – Here Are the Details

Anime fans get excited. For now, it is finally the time you see Luffy and his
crew take shape in the real world. We have been hearing the news about Netflix’s
live-action adaptation of One Piece for quite some time now, but we never really
had any concrete updates to talk about yet. Finally, we have some great news for
everyone, as the production of the much-awaited series has finally begun in the
country of South Africa.

The product of the collaboration of Shueisha, Netflix, and Tomorrow Studios is
something everyone was looking forward to. One Piece live-action will follow the
same story as the original manga. This series will specifically recreate the
East Blue Saga from the manga series. Hence, this will also feature Luffy trying
to build a crew to achieve his lifelong dream of becoming the Pirate King.


ONE PIECE LIVE-ACTION ADAPTATION STARTS PRODUCTION IN SOUTH AFRICA

In a recent update, Netflix announced that the production of the live-action
adaptation of One Piece has finally begun. The Netflix series will have 10
episodes and follow the lead character Luffy as he establishes his famous Straw
Hats pirates. The tweet from Netflix Geeked features two pictures featuring the
cast of the show and a caption that confirms the beginning of the production.

The showrunner for One Piece, Steven Maeda, also took to Twitter to tease the
manga/anime-based show. He posted a picture of a straw hat keychain, with the
caution, “The Day of the Beginning…”

Eiichiro Oda was really excited about the castings and he praised them saying
[https://comicbook.com/anime/news/one-piece-live-action-history-anime/], “Their
face, the size of their mouths and hands, their aura, the way they carry
themselves, their voice, their acting skills, their height, the balance amongst
the Straw Hat Crew, etc…!” Oda continued, “We decided on this cast after
numerous discussions involving people around the world! These are the people who
will be our Straw Hat Pirates! It’ll take a bit more time to get this show done,
but we’ll continue to do our best to deliver a show that we’re confident will be
enjoyed by everyone around the world! Look forward to more updates in the
future!”
