Jamie Lee Curtis won't show up in One Piece Season 2: An Unfactory Update for Viewers
Jamie Lee Curtis will not be joining the cast of One Piece season 2 notwithstanding general support and campaigning from both fans and the actress herself. The executive producer of the Netflix adaptation, Becky Clements, confirmed the news and attributed scheduling conflicts as the cause. Clements did disclose, though, that the show features "an amazing person" to represent the venerable Dr. Kureha.
Second season of One Piece: Dr. Kureha casting
Curtis had freely shown her excitement about portraying Dr. Kureha in the series, even teasingly implying that she was "a little old" to fit Nico Robin. Following the successful premiere of season 1, she reiterated her enthusiasm in the post-SAG-AFTRA and WGA strike post. Showrunner Matt Owens even openly suggested that Curtis join the cast, implying she could land the part without having to advocate for it.
She loves the show, Clements said to explain Curtis's absence. Our production dates won't work because she has too many movies and TV shows under development. She wanted to do it most definitely, but it got complicated since she had first position deals. We have come across a really remarkable person.
The Positive Development of Dr. Kureha's Invclusion in One Piece Season 2
Although fans may find the news of Curtis's absence to be upsetting, the inclusion of Dr. Kureha in One Piece season 2 is still a good sign. Tony Tony Chopper will be joining the season, thus Kureha's appearance seemed almost certain. Chopper is a fundamental character in both the manga and the anime since she learns the art of medicine under Kureha's direction.
Jamie Lee Curtis's Future Within One Piece
Curtis won't be performing Dr. Kureha, thus there's still a chance she might show up in a next One Piece season. Other roles that would fit her have even been recommended by some supporters as Boa Hancock, head of the Kuja tribe, or Big Mom, captain of the Big Mom Pirates. Given Curtis's sincere enthusiasm for the One Piece universe, it would be a lost chance not to investigate alternative approaches to include her into the programme.
