For those who haven't followed the Japanese series Manga, you should know that One Piece is created by Eiichiro Oda. One Piece follows the adventures of Monkey D. Luffy (Iñaki Godoy), a young pirate who dreams of finding the legendary treasure of Gold Rogers. If Luffy finds the 'One Piece' then he will become the King of Pirates. Along his journey, Luffy meets various other pirates who either help him or hinder him in his voyage. Notably, whenever a series or movie based on Pirates comes or is announced, the name of Hollywood actor Johnny Depp erupts. Jonny Depp immortalized the character of Captain Jack Sparrow in Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean. However, Depp was removed from the epic saga after his fallout with his ex-wife Amber Heard. Disney removed Depp from the Pirates franchise after he was accused of domestic violence by his ex-wife Amber Heard. Although the Virginia Court acquitted Depp and found Amber Heard guilty of defaming the veteran actor, Disney never reinstated the actor in his iconic role.
Coming back to One Piece, there are multiple characters in the 8 episode series. Inaki Godoy will be playing “Monkey D. Luffy”, Mackenyu Maeda (Arata) as “Roronoa Zoro”, Emily Ellen Rudd as “Nami”, Jacob Romero Gibson as “Usopp”, Taz Skylar as Sanji, Michael Dorman as “Gold Roger”, Peter Gadiot as “Shanks”, Vincent Regan as “Garp”, Steven Ward as “Dracule Mihawk”, Jeff Ward as “Buggy”, Aidan Scott as “Helmeppo”, McKinley Belcher III as “Arlong”, Ilia Isorelýs Paulino as “Alvida”, and Craig Fairbrass as “Chef Zeff”.
