Emily Rudd playing the role of Nami in the recent One Piece live-action adaptation series is without a doubt one of the best decisions the casting team of Netflix has ever made.

One major aspect challenge that is faced during the production of any anime’s live-action adaptation is the reproduction of stunts in real life. This was the case with the One Piece live-action series too, but fortunately, they were able to overcome it with the help of the dedicated cast, such as Rudd herself, who agreed to do all her grueling stunt scenes on her own.
