An astonishing revelation from actor Brashaad Mayweather…
Netflix achieved the impossible by adapting One Piece in live action, successfully, last summer. It didn't take long for Season 2 to be ordered. And obviously, production is already working on season 3.
The actor Brashaad Mayweather, who plays Patty, a cook at Baratie, the restaurant founded by Zeff, discussed her time on the series during an interview. He quickly appeared in episodes 5 and 6 and explains that he is hopeful of returning in the sequel. And he reveals in passing that seasons 2 and 3 could be filmed consecutively:
“We'll see if they bring Patty back, because they're shooting two seasons there. Seasons 2 and 3 are going to be filmed back-to-back, and it'll start soon. So we'll see what happens (for Patty).”
Brashaad Mayweather, who played Patty in S1, mentioned in an interview that One Piece is filming seasons 2 and 3 back to back.

Don't get your hopes up just yet, Netflix typically makes official announcements for renewals, and there's no confirmation of this news at the moment! https://t.co/zcAfOxiz9z pic.twitter.com/ahPIMFpHp3— OPLA News (@OPLANEWS) June 1, 2024
A surprising revelation, since season 3 of One Piece has not yet been officially ordered, but that is not far-fetched: Netflix would certainly like to limit the time between two seasons. Season 1 released in summer 2023 will wait at least two years before having a sequel. Season 2 won't air until 2025 at the earliest. Shooting season 3 straight away will reduce the wait by several months, thus avoiding the risk of seeing the positive buzz fall like a bellows.
