A big movie star could be in the cast of season 2 of the Netflix series One Piece. She asked for it herself and the idea seemed to please her.
One Piece fans have probably all devoured the live-action series released on August 31. While some of them expected a disaster, the program convinced the majority of viewers. It was really a no brainer given the popularity of One Piece and the demands of its community. Now, the audience is turning their attention to season 2, which has been officially announced by Netflix. A great actress seems particularly excited about the idea of joining the cast for these next episodes.
A star in season 2 of the live-action One Piece?
For a long time, the casting of Netflix’s One Piece series has caused concern. Finally, Iñaki Godoy played the role of Luffy perfectly, as did the other actors both on the side of the Mugiwaras and emblematic villains like Buggy the Clown (Jeff Ward). All these beautiful people could soon be joined by a movie star. On his Instagram account, Jamie Lee Curtis, who will be found in the film Borderlands, reiterates his desire to play the role of a character from the show. “ Once the AMTPT Greed Strike is settled with a fair contract, I will lobby with fans to become Doctor Kureha in One Piece », Declares the interpreter of Laurie Strode in the Halloween saga.
Her post is accompanied by photos of her next to Doctor Kureha to clearly show her resemblance to the character. Showrunner Matt Owens’ response in the comments suggests that Jamie Lee Curtis could well appear in season 2 of One Piece.
No need to lobby. Once we get what we deserve and get back to work, let’s talk!
Jamie Lee Curtis has been placing his pawns for a long time
This is not the first time that Jamie Lee Curtis has expressed his desire to play Kureha in the live-action One Piece. In April 2022, during an interview with TikToker Straw Hat Goofy during the Oscars, she already admitted her affection for Chopper and his mentor. “ There is this old lady […], maybe I could be Kureha. My daughter Ruby said that’s what I could play “. At the time, the idea appealed to fans, who campaigned for the producers to give the role to Jamie Lee Curtis. We can see from the actress’ latest Instagram post that this is still the case. Remember that Chopper, whose presence in season 2 has been confirmed, appears for the first time in the Drum Island arc, as Doctor Kureha.
