One Piece Season 3: "The Battle of Alabasta" Officially Wraps Filming

Netflix's Iñaki Godoy, Mackenyu Arata, Emily Rudd, Jacob Romero Gibson, and Taz Skylar-starring One Piece Season 3 has wrapped filming.

For Iñaki Godoy (Monkey D. Luffy), Mackenyu Arata (Zoro), Emily Rudd (Nami), Jacob Romero Gibson (Usopp), and Taz Skylar (Sanji), it's the end. Okay, maybe we shouldn't have started things off so ominously. What we're really saying is that it's the end for them when it comes to filming the third season of One Piece: The Battle of Alabasta, the live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's work. Hmmm… that's an interesting look at Joe Manganiello's Mr.0 (aka, Sir Crocodile) on the back wall there in the wrap image that was released:

War is coming for Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat crew in the desert kingdom of Alabasta, Princess Vivi's homeland. A rebellion threatens to tear the nation apart, fueled in secret by one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the ruthless Sir Crocodile, and his underground syndicate Baroque Works, who seek to conquer Alabasta for themselves. In a season defined by unbreakable bonds and impossible choices, the Straw Hats must face a brewing civil war and a powerful warlord to save Vivi's kingdom before it crumbles into the sand. Here's a look at the teaser that was released back in April:
