Netflix is bringing The Grand Line to the world of brick building! The streamer has just confirmed that the upcoming LEGO One Piece animated special will feature the original cast of the hit live-action series reprising their roles in the voice booth, following a two-special animated series announced in April.
If you think you can’t get enough of Iñaki Godoy’s boundless energy or Mackenny’s fanatical Zorro, get ready to experience them in a whole new dimension.
Thanks to a brand new batch of character cards released by Netflix, we finally have confirmation that the main live-action Straw Hat crew—along with some familiar faces from the upcoming season 2—will be lending their voices to their blocky, plastic counterparts.
Here is the confirmed voice cast for the LEGO One Piece Animated Special:
- iñaki godoy Monkey D. as Luffy
- mckenew Roronoa as Zoro
- emily rudd As Nami
- jacob romero as usopp
- Taj Skyler as sanji
- Charitra Chandran as miss wednesday
- Chandran exclusively reacted to the news on Instagram, saying, “Mom, I made it.”
- Mikaela Hoover as chopper
Having live-action actors come on board to voice the LEGO specials is a huge win for fans and a great move by Netflix to bridge the gap between their live-action universe and this new animated venture. It’s especially exciting to see newcomers like Charitra Chandran and Mikaela Hoover jumping straight into the spin-off entertainment, giving us a taste of the expanded crew ahead of their live-action debut.
So, when can we see these minifigures in action?
You won’t have to wait long. The first official trailer for the LEGO One Piece Special will arrive tomorrow, July 20th.
The full animated special is officially set to arrive on Netflix globally 29 September.
We’ll be sure to update you as soon as the trailer goes live tomorrow. Until then, let us know in the comments: Are you excited to hear the live-action cast’s take on the LEGO universe? Who do you think translates the minifigure best?
