Netflix's One Piece live-action series gets first trailer, release date

At Tudum 2023, Netflix finally released the first teaser trailer for the One Piece live-action series which features our first proper look at the Straw Hats.

Earlier this year, Netflix shared the first teaser posters for the show, though they only showed the main cast from behind. Now, the new trailer shows the first five Straw Hats in action!

Check out the new trailer here:

In an unusual take for the trailer, it’s Luffy that’s doing the narration. This is unexpected for One Piece fans, especially considering that Luffy usually isn’t serious enough to narrate. Though despite this, many fans reacted positively with how the trailer looked, especially given that the main cast are mostly true to their original manga versions (except maybe for Buggy).

Along with the new trailer, Netflix also released new screenshots here:

The One Piece live-action series will be released on Netflix on August 31, 2023. The show will consist of eight episodes, and it will likely cover most (if not all) of the East Blue Saga.
