"We have been working with NETFLIX and Tomorrow Studios on the massive project that is the Hollywood live-action series adaptation of ONE PIECE! How many years has it been since it was announced? I know, I know! But rest assured, we’ve been making steady progress all this time! It’s not easy when you’re collaborating with people from different cultures! But it’s precisely this process that can create something special! Now, we can finally reveal the main cast! We have to hurry and announce them, or else it seems like they’ll get leaked! Very funny, lol. Their faces, the size of their mouths and hands, their aura, their way of moving, their voices, their acting skills, their height, the balance within the Straw Hat crew, etc...!
After numerous discussions with people from all over the world, we’ve decided on this cast! These are the people who will become our Straw Hat Pirates! It will still take some time before the show is finished, but we’ll continue to do our best to deliver a show that we’re confident will please everyone around the world! Look forward to more updates in the future!"
