Percy Jackson and the Olympians co-executive producer Joe Tracz has been confirmed as writer, executive producer and co-showrunner on the upcoming second season of Netflix’s breakout hit One Piece.
On the live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s beloved manga, he is working alongside returning Season 1 writer, executive producer and co-showrunner Matt Owens. Steve Maeda, who developed the series with Owens and served as Season 1 co-showrunner, remains an executive producer. Filming on Season 2 is expected to start in June for a 2025 premiere, sources said.
This marks a return to Netflix for Tracz who served as a writer-producer on the streamer’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events, based on the book series of the same name by Lemony Snicket, and as co-creator-executive producer on Dash & Lily, based on the YA books.
In his statement about joining One Piece, Tracz references his recent string of literary adaptations, and references’ Straw Hat Pirate’s Season 2 destination as teased in the Season 1 finale.
“I’ve been lucky to work on big adaptations of several beloved series, and they don’t come bigger or more beloved than One Piece,” Tracz said. “I’m a huge fan of Oda-san’s incredible imagination and I was blown away by what the live-action team created in Season One. So it’s a dream and a joy to come aboard the Going Merry as it enters the Grand Line for an even more giant Season Two.”
Owens kept with the nautical theme in his statement about Tracz joining the show.
“Joe has brought a wealth of enthusiasm and experience into our second season that will help take One Piece to new heights,” he said. “We’re incredibly lucky to have him as a co-captain of this ship. The best crew on the seas grows larger!”
