After a tease in Netflix’s One Piece season 2 announcement way back in September 2023, Tony Tony Chopper, the Straw Hats’ resident reindeer-doctor, has officially boarded the pirate ship. Netflix revealed the beloved sidekick’s “live-action” look during its 2025 Tudum stream. Netflix also announced that actor Mikaela Hoover (Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3, July’s Superman) provided Chopper’s voice and motion-capture. One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda, who has previously gushed over his experience working on the Netflix show, calling it his “last chance” to bring the manga to the masses, previously announced Chopper’s inclusion in the season 2 cast. And what would One Piece be without the wily doc? Not only has Chopper been around for most of Monkey D. Luffy’s quest to be the greatest pirate on the high seas, but his transformations over the years have served as a foundation for Oda’s evolving vision for the long-running series. His look in the live-action series was a big question, answered with respectable levels of CG. In season 2, Hoover joins the original Straw Hats cast of Iñaki Godoy, Mackenyu, Emily Rudd, Jacob Romero and Taz Skyla. Season 2 will also see a slew of new actors and characters, many of whom will attempt to kill Luffy. Look at this list: Charithra Chandran as Miss Wednesday Joe Manganiello as Mr. 0 Katey Sagal as Dr. Kureha Lera Abova as Miss All Sunday Mark Harelik as Dr. Hiriluk Sophia Anne Caruso as Miss Goldenweek Yonda Thomas as Igaram Sendhil Ramamurthy as Nefertari Cobra Brendan Sean Murray as Brogy Callum Kerr as Smoker Camrus Johnson as Mr. 5 Clive Russell as Crocus Daniel Lasker as Mr. 9 David Dastmalchian as Mr. 3 Jazzara Jaslyn as Miss Valentine Julia Rehwald as Tashigi Rob Colletti as Wapol Ty Keogh as Dalton Werner Coetser as Dorry Rigo Sanchez as Dragon James Hiroyuki Liao as Ipponmatsu Mark Penwill as Chess Anton Jeftha as K.M. Meanwhile, Netflix has a separate One Piece adaptation in the works, a new and condensed anime from Wit Studios. So expect even more Chopper reveals in the not-so-distant future.
