Netflix's One Piece Season 2 Casts Katey Sagal, Mark Harelik
It's official! Netflix's One Piece is filling out its ranks for season two, and the project just gave fans a big update about its crew. With season two on the horizon, the live-action series has some major roles to fill from Nico Robin to Vivi. The list also includes some very familiar doctors, and we've just learned Katey Sagal and Mark Harelik will be bringing the pair to life.According to the Netflix team, Sagal has been cast as Dr. Kureha, and Harelik will oversee Dr. Hiriluk. This casting news comes not long after rumors began swirling about Sagal's involvement with the show. The star has been a favorite for Dr. Kureha with fans along with actress Jamie Lee Curtis. Unfortunately, scheduling conflicts kept Curtis away from the One Piece role, but Sagal has more than enough talent to bring Dr. Kureha to life.(Photo: Netflix)For those needing a little refresher on these two doctors, Kureha and Hiriluk are major parts of the Drum Island arc with Tony Tony Chopper. Kureha is not only a veteran in the medical field, but she is Chopper's mentor and his adoptive mom. Kureha took Chopper in after the untimely death of Hiriluk, the thief-turned-doctor who raised Chopper. These two doctors turned the Straw Hat crew's own into a prodigy, and they play a major role in testing Luffy's entourage on Drum Island. Clearly, the team behind One Piece has been hard at work with its casting, and there are more reveals to come. We still don't know how season two will handle Chopper's live-action debut since he's a reindeer and all. We've also yet to learn the stars behind Nico Robin and Princess Vivi. But thanks to this latest update from Netflix, we know the news cannot be far out. Want to know more about One Piece? You can find the hit manga on Viz Media's Shonen Jump app right now.
