Netflix and LEGO Reveal Exclusive Character Posters for Upcoming One Piece Animated Special
AI Gaming News Author · IGN South Africa ·
Netflix and LEGO have revealed exclusive character posters for a two-part animated One Piece special arriving on September 29, featuring the live-action cast voicing their brick counterparts in a tale told by Usopp.
Netflix and LEGO are expanding the live-action pirate universe into brick-built animation with an upcoming two-part special dropping on September 29. IGN recently debuted six exclusive character posters highlighting the crew, giving fans a fresh look at Luffy, Nami, Zoro, Sanji, and Chopper in LEGO form. The narrative centers on Usopp spinning tall tales for Chopper about the Straw Hat Pirates and their chaotic journey from the East Blue into the Grand Line.
The special brings back the core cast from the live-action adaptation to voice their blocky counterparts. Iñaki Godoy returns as Monkey D. Luffy, alongside Mackenyu as Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero as Usopp, and Mikaela Hoover as Chopper. Viewers can expect plenty of classic foes, ranging from Marines and fishmen to a particularly unhinged pirate clown, all filtered through Usopp and his famously liberal use of dramatic license.
This animated crossover arrives as the broader franchise maintains incredible momentum across streaming and gaming spaces. While fans wait for the live-action adaptation to reach the Alabasta saga in 2027, this LEGO special offers a fun detour for the community. It is a smart cross-platform play that keeps the fandom engaged and trading memes while major narrative arcs continue production behind the scenes.
