Netflix’sOne Piece Live Actionseason 2 script has finished, and the series is under production. Fans have high expectations for the upcoming season, as season one performed admirably. The series has managed to reduce people’s fear of anime live adaptation failure. With such expectations,One Piece Live Actionwill try to repeat the success of season one.
The executives and Eiichiro Oda have already taken a step towards success by getting the perfect actors to play Dr. Kureha and Fr. Hiriluk. Katey Sagal and Mark Harelik’s casting has been perfect from every angle. With that thought, the fans believe Xolo Maridueña could be the perfect actor to play live-action Portgas D. Ace.
Cobra KaiStar Could Be The Perfect Casting Of Portgas D. Ace
Portgas D. Ace is one of the most crucial characters inOne Piece. He is also the son of Pirate King Gol D. Roger, Monkey D. Luffy’s brother, and Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates. He made his debut during the Alabasta arc. It is unclear whether season two will feature the Alabasta arc. The fans did not want to take any chance with the casting and unanimously voted Xolo Maridueña to be the perfect actor to land the role.

Ace ate the Mera Mera no Mi and is a master in hand-to-hand combat. Xolo Maridueña plays the role of Miguel Diaz inCobra Kaiand can pretty well play the role of a martial artist. On top of that, the actor also starred in DC’sBlue Beetle, justifying his versatility as an actor. Being familiar with both martial arts and superhero parts, Maridueña will have no problem becoming the live-actionPortgas D. Ace.
Apart from his abilities, his physical attributes also match the Fire Human. The wavy hair, strong build, a tall physique are similar to Luffy’s brother. Fans think even Eiichiro Oda will have to agree with them on this decision. Ace’s entry in season two has not been confirmed, but if it does happen, no one will be a better fit than theCobra KaiandBlue Beetleactor. Moreover,Iñaki GodoyandXolo Maridueñahave already bonded over an interview.
Xolo Maridueña Is Not The Only OneOne PieceFans Voted For
Xolo Maridueña as Ace is a dream come true for theOne Piecefans, but he is not the only actor they voted for. Apart from Ace, fans have also found the perfect actor to play Sir Crocodile. According to them,Magic Mike‘s famed actor, Joe Manganiello, could become the live-action Sir Crocodile. Currently, nothing has been finalized, and the fans are just making predictions. But the choices are pretty manga-accurate.

So, the fans are still keeping their fingers crossed on Xolo Maridueña and Joe Manganiello. Ultimately, the vesting rights remain on the creator of theOne Piece, Eiichiro Oda.
