00:00 I'm Monkey D. Luffy and ever since I was a kid the sea's been calling
00:04 I think the One Piece live-action will be very exciting for everyone to see your favorite characters and world come to life
00:11 And for people who don't know this story they can experience it for the first time stop talking in spite
00:18 One Piece is the most popular pirate adventure manga around the world
00:24 We're heading up to the Grand Line to find the ultimate treasure the One Piece and I will become king of the pirates
00:29 It's about adventure with our core group the straw hats this amazing found family
00:35 We haven't sailed together for very long, but we've got each other's backs
00:39 It's such an important story to chase after your dreams and stand up for what you think is right
00:46 For this series we wanted to bring the manga created by Oda sensei into a new medium and to new audiences
00:53 The original IP material is the thing that makes it so great and all of us want to honor that
00:58 Finding Luffy was such a journey because he is the center of the show and in casting in Yaki
01:06 I think we really lucked out
01:08 Monkey D. Luffy is a big dreamer. He's so cheerful and he loves adventure
01:14 I think we both share a lot of the same values in this world Luffy has the ability to turn his body into rubber
01:24 But his real power is his ability to inspire people if the path to what you want seems too easy
01:29 Then you're on the wrong path
01:32 One piece is very much a stunt driven show
01:36 McKinney comes with a style of his own already very well-versed at katana work kind of got my own thing going on
01:42 I grew up with one piece and Zoro has always been my favorite character. Come on tough guy three swords
01:49 It's an honor to be wearing those swords
01:53 Ah
01:54 So that's where it goes
01:56 Nami obviously biased is my favorite. She's the cool calm collected cat burglar of the group
02:03 She's kind of like an older sister surrounded by a group of younger brothers
02:07 Careful with that. I don't work for you. It's been truly amazing playing this role
02:17 Or how about we sail away as fast as we can
02:19 Usa is the sniper. He's the storyteller charge of keeping everyone's spirits up
02:25 He does have a certain grace about him. Jacob is such a goofy person
02:30 It's almost effortless for him to transition into Usa apologies madam. I didn't see you there
02:35 Perhaps you'd like something sweet for someone sweet Sanji is my favorite of the straw hats
02:40 He's a chef and cares very much about people playing Sanji. I had to learn how to cook and fight
02:46 It's gonna be fun. Otis on has created this entire world. That is so special and so unique
02:53 I think when the show airs, there'll be nothing like you've ever seen
02:56 Maybe we should skip right to the finale
02:59 I hope existing one-piece fans
03:02 See the love that went into this Oda sensei and his team have been with us the entire time that
03:09 Collaboration is birthed something really special now. We're talking the spirit of one piece is
03:16 So strong in this I've always been a pirate world put in our heart and passion into this
03:22 I'm really proud of what we've done
03:24 We're bringing the best parts of the manga to life
