I mean, come on! Luffy is wearing his anchor shirt and all. From top to bottom, these photos show the Straw Hat gang at their youngest, and we're obsessed with the authentic look.
If you are not familiar with this live-action adaptation, series creator Eiichiro Oda announced his hit manga was working on the project some years ago. After coming to Netflix, filming began on One Piece shortly after sets reopened amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, One Piece is slated to debut at the end of August, so fans better catch up with One Piece as they can.
If you want to brush up on One Piece, the anime can be found on Hulu as well as Crunchyroll. For more details, you can read its official synopsis below:
"As a child, Monkey D. Luffy dreamed of becoming King of the Pirates. But his life changed when he accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Fruit, an enchanted Devil Fruit that gave him the ability to stretch like rubber. Its only drawback? He'll never be able to swim again--a serious handicap for an aspiring sea dog! Years later, Luffy sets off on his quest to find the "One Piece," said to be the greatest treasure in the world..."
