Luffy is out to finally make his dreams of being a pirate come true and trust us, no one will stop him. As the leader of the Straw Hat Pirate, Luffy proves to be a caring and charismatic leader, completely upending the idea of what it means to be a pirate and inspiring others on his journey. Will he become the King of the Pirates? Only time will tell!

Iñaki Godoy is a Mexican actor who is returning to Netflix after starring in Who Killed Sara? and The Imperfects.

Mackenyu as Roronoa Zoro

As a pirate hunter, Zoro's success in taking down even the biggest bounties has certainly made him a lot of enemies. But even though that's how he gets his berry, doesn't mean it's his true goal. He is also set on becoming the world's greatest swordsman. Despite being a pirate hunter, Zoro becomes fiercely loyal to Luffy and is regarded as his right-hand man, believing in him maybe even more than Luffy believes in himself.

Mackenyu is not a new face to live-action anime adaptations. He previously starred as Scar in the Fullmetal Alchemist films, Yukishiro Enishi in Rurouni Kenshin: The Final, and Pegasus Seiya in Knights of the Zodiac.

Jacob Romero as Usopp

Usopp has many tales, but it's hard for most people to figure out if they are really true or not. Even then, his impressive slingshot skills and his dreams of setting off to the sea make him an important member of the Straw Hats. His heart and his emotions are all in the right place, even if they make him a little impulsive. Still, there's no better person you want on your team, especially a pirate crew.

Jacob Romero has had small roles in Greenleaf and Grey's Anatomy, while One Piece is his first starring role.

Taz Skylar as Sanji

Sanji is known for two major things: his incredible cooking skills and his very impressive “Black Leg Style” kick-fighting skills. He is also a pretty big flirt when it comes to women, which can sometimes rub the group the wrong way. He dreams of reaching the All Blue, the place where fish from all four seas can be found AKA a chef's ultimate paradise.

Taz Skylar has appeared in a number of shows and movies including The Lazarus Project and Villain.

Morgan Davies as Koby

A young and shy guy, Koby is oftentimes overlooked, especially as part of Alvida's crew. However, after escaping, he sets off on his own adventure to become a Marine. His story often parallels Luffy's as they both try to achieve their dreams, even if it means they'll eventually become enemies.

Morgan Davies previously appeared in Terra Nova and The Girlfriend Experience. He also recently starred as Danny in Evil Dead Rise.
