Creator Eiichiro Oda also had a hand in assembling the crew.
The Big Picture Finding actors to bring the characters of a beloved animated or illustrated property to life in live-action is no small feat. Those actors have to not only be believable in terms of appearance but also in terms of their personality and performance relative to the character.
In an interview with Collider's Arezou Amin, showrunner Steven Maeda gave some insight into the process behind finding the Straw Hats.
"Definitely looking for chemistry between them, actors who really embodied the parts, and I think we found them in a major way, which I feel incredibly blessed and fortunate," Maeda said of the casting process. "To do so, we had a wonderful duo of casting directors, Libby [Goldstein] and Junie [Lowry], who scoured the earth, truly, to find these characters.
Eiichiro Oda Gave the One Piece Team Guidance on Finding the Straw Hats Oda was also involved in the casting process to some degree. He had notes for the team regarding each character, though Maeda admits they weren't afraid to deviate a bit if it meant reeling in someone who was perfect for their role. "We looked everywhere for them and also had some of Oda-san’s blessing, as far as what these characters would look like if they were from our world.
It takes a crew to keep the good ship One Piece afloat, however, and everyone did their part to make this series something special. In terms of the cast, Director Marc Jobst focused on creating a comfortable environment to bring out the best in his Straw Hats while cinematographer Nicole Whitaker worked to adapt some of the wackier characters like Buggy the Clown to the screen.
