The show became one of the biggest hits on Netflix in 2023.
Season 2 was announced soon after. And while we don't have a Season 2 release date yet, we now have an update about Season 3.
, who is playing Crocodile aka Mr. 0, in the second season of the adaptation, was in an interview with Cinemablend to promote the Netflix film Nonnas. In the interview, he was asked if he could give an update about the upcoming season.
One Piece live action Season 3 filming to start later this year
The actor revealed, 'We've taken a break between Season 2 and Season 3.
So yeah, I'll be heading back later on this year, and we'll be working on the next part of the story. So that's about all I can say.'
While Netflix still hasn't announced Season 3 officially, this comment from Manganiello confirms the earlier comments made by his colleague Brashaad Mayweather. Last year, Mayweather, who portrays Patty in Season 1 of the adaptation, was in an interview at What's Popping! with Bruce Crossey.
At the end of the interview he had this to say 'And hopefully, you know, there's a flashback scene with Patty. We'll see if they flash back to it because they're filming...two seasons, seasons 2 and 3 back-to-back starting soon, so we'll see what happens.'
While many fans were excited hearing this a lot of people also doubted these words. Because considering Mayweather is not returning for Season 2 or Season 3, how would he have this information.

Also Netflix usually announces this stuff prior to it happening.
But this is a smart move by Netflix as this story is so long you can't film a season every 2-3 years, these actors will age out by season 4 and we won't have covered any ground truly by then.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Netflix India (@netflix_in) The film, released on June 5, marks the reunion of Mani Ratnam and Kamal Haasan nearly four decades after their 1987 collaboration, Nayakan. Thug Life, co-produced by Raaj Kamal Films International and Madras Talkies, follows Rangaraya Sakthivel Naickar (Haasan), a crime lord, seeking revenge for betrayals within his own gang, including his brother and adopted son, Amaran (played by Silambarasan). The film also explores themes of mistrust, power struggles, and Sakthivel's complex relationship with an influencer, Indrani (played by Trisha Krishnan). Co-written by Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam, the film also features an ensemble cast including Trisha Krishnan, Ashok Selvan, Joju George, Nasser, Abhirami and Aishwarya Lekshmi in pivotal roles. Music maestro A.R. Rahman has composed the music of the film. One of the major reasons behind Thug Life's box office failure could be a call to boycott the project in light of recent remarks made by Kamal Haasan. During a promotional event for the film, Haasan had remarked that 'Kannada is born out of Tamil," which didn't go well with the pro-Kannada groups. Also, previously, the film received criticism for intimate moments with 70-year-old Haasan and 42-year-old Krishnan in the trailer. Up next, Kamal Haasan will be seen in the sci-fi action thriller, Kalki 2898 AD Part 2, along with Deepika Padukone, Prabhas and Amitabh Bachchan. Helmed by Nag Ashwin, the film is expected to go on floors in December this year. First Published:

This Squid Game 3 Spoiler Scandal Will Make You Rethink Your Insta Habits_What Park Gyu Young Just Confessed!

The Spoiler That Shook K-Drama Fandom So, imagine you're just chilling, scrolling through Insta, and suddenly-BAM!-your favorite K-drama star drops a major spoiler for the next season of the biggest Netflix show ever. That's exactly what happened when Park Gyu Young, who plays the complex character 'Noeul' in Squid Game Season 2, accidentally posted a huge spoiler for Season 3 on her personal account. The internet obviously went wild, and fans were left with a mix of excitement and disappointment. For those who live and breathe K-dramas (just like how we binge-watch every new series during exam season), this was the kind of drama no one asked for. Park Gyu Young's role became even more relatable-her character's only goal is to find her daughter in the North, but now the actress herself was caught in a real-life game of "Oops, did I just do that?" Owning Up Like a Pro-And Why That Matters by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo During a recent interview at a cozy cafe in Seoul, Park Gyu Young didn't dodge the tough questions. She admitted she'd made a mistake and said, "I think I showed a bad side of myself for a few months, and I'm sure fans were disappointed." She explained that after the spoiler incident, she immediately reached out to the director and her co-star Lee Jin Wook to apologize. The director told her, "Let's make sure this never happens again," while Lee Jin Wook, being the chill senior, even joked that all the attention was kind of fun. But Park Gyu Young didn't just stop at apologies. She talked about how the whole thing made her reflect deeply on her sense of responsibility as an actress. She said, "Even though I was forgiven, I spent a long time thinking about whether I was mature enough and responsible enough for my work." She also sent a heartfelt apology to fans, saying she was sorry for making them guess the story ahead of time because of her slip-up. When Social Media Gets Too Real Let's be honest-who hasn't posted something on social media and instantly regretted it? Whether it's a meme that didn't land or a rant about college life, we've all been there. But when you're a public figure with millions of fans, the stakes are way higher. Park Gyu Young's experience is a reminder that even celebs can get caught up in the moment and make mistakes online. In a world where spoilers can ruin the fun for everyone, her story is a wake-up call for all of us: Think before you post, especially when your actions can affect not just you but an entire fandom. And if you do mess up? Own it, apologize, and learn from it-because that's what real growth looks like, whether you're a K-drama star or just another student hustling through life. It's All About the Feels Reading Park Gyu Young's honest confession feels oddly familiar. In Indian culture, saying sorry and reflecting on your mistakes is a big deal-just like how we apologize to our parents after sneaking out for a late-night chai. Her story isn't just about spoilers or K-dramas; it's about how everyone, no matter how famous, can slip up and still find a way to make things right. As fans, we love our stars not just for their roles, but for being real humans who learn, grow, and sometimes mess up-just like us. P.S. Next time you're about to spill some major tea on your feed, remember Park Gyu Young and maybe... just maybe... think twice!
