Stuntin' in Sneakers: A Fashion Statement
"Sandals are not the safest," Emily Rudd, the face of Nami, took to social media to defend Luffy's choice of kicks. Turns out, there's a reason Luffy's not sporting his trademark sandals: stunt work.

"My Mom Loves Kureha": The Jamie Lee Curtis Connection
Everyone and their mother is excited about Netflix's One Piece Live Action, but when your mom is Halloween Ends star Jamie Lee Curtis, that's a level-up. As reported by CBR, Curtis is such a hardcore fan, she even roped in Brina Palencia, the voice of Tony Tony Chopper, to record a birthday message for her daughter Ruby Guest. Now, fans are clamoring for Curtis to snag a role in the series. Could Season 2 be her moment to shine as Kureha?
As Ruby Guest put it, "I would highly recommend her to pull some strings to see if she can." So, do we have a casting alert in the future?
While we sail in a sea of uncertainty about the release date—subject to change until Netflix weighs anchor with an official announcement—the show already has a special place in the hearts of fans and celebs alike.
So, mark your calendars for August 31, or maybe don't—either way, keep your eyes peeled and your spyglasses at the ready. One Piece Live Action is floating into your Netflix queue faster than you can say, "Yo ho ho!"
