Netflix's One Piece Cast Reacts to First Trailer: Watch

By Nick Valdez

One Piece is gearing up to debut a new live-action series with Netflix later this Summer, and the cast behind this new One Piece series has shared their reactions to the first trailer! The live-action take on Eiichiro Oda's long running One Piece franchise has been in the works for several years, but unfortunately new looks at the upcoming adaptation have been very minimal. Fans have been especially curious to see how Luffy and the Straw Hats made the jump to the live-action screen, and we finally got to see our first look at the new Netflix series in motion. 

The first trailer for the live-action One Piece series was debuted as part of the special TUDUM event in Brazil this past weekend as Netflix showed off the first look at some of the major new projects they currently have in the works. The cast of the new One Piece series themselves were at the event and seemed very excited to see the fruits of their labor for the past few years. As the official Twitter for the Netflix's One Piece series shared their reactions to the first trailer, it's clear that everyone involved is just as excited for these new Straw Hats as many fans are. You can check out the One Piece cast's reaction to the first trailer below:
