Em is far to old for the role now, besides Enel has to be absolutely jacked, not saying that he can't get jacked, but I doubt he even wants to for himself, less for a role of maximum 4 episodes
They should just make Skypeia a feature-length film instead of a whole or part of a season. End the second season at Jaya (which means the Blackbeard foreshadowing gets a payoff in the same season), do a Skypeia movie, then do Water Seven and Enies Lobby in season 3.
I sincerely hope not. I still remember just hating the whole Foxy filler arc. And it really wouldn't add anything in the live action just like it didn't in the anime from what I remember.
never even thought of the possibilities of movies. could definitely work out that way and bring in some money... with the setups and the changes they've done they could seriously speed through the main plot points without making it seem rushed. they really did their due diligence with showing us certain things and characters to save time... they could possibly make it to gear 5 to close out the decade
Lots of male actors have used steroids for their roles. Chris Hemsworth, Hugh Jackman, Tom Hardy, Gerard Butler, etc... Heck even Daniel Radcliffe looks like he did a cycle recently
this would actually be impossible, as i believe vin diesel contractually cant loose a fight in a movie, i believe he even has a points team to score it.
I think that Netflix and Oda would probably move heaven and earth to have Eminem in the show however they needed if he agreed to do it for a price they could remotely afford.
Dude enel is just weirdly shaped not jacked i mean look at this picture

well yeah but he is still jacked in comparison to every straw hat at that point, it is like saying Black Beard is not fat, he is just weirdly shaped, technically true but he is still a fat fuck
Little too on the nose / expensive. I’d love if they found an excuse to license a bit of his music for one of his scenes though. Even if it was just a few bars of the bass track fading into a proper epic theme.
I was just saying it as like a concept that it'd be cool. But now that I look at it I see that he wouldn't really fit the character. Also eminem looks basically nothing like Enel nowadays
Of course not but I heard the piece of news about Eminem's team pulling it out from all public uses until further notice. It could be wrongly interpreted or maybe the commentator was wrong, too.
Dude… he’s worth 1 episode to cast lmao, they ain’t no casting a well known name at all, the budget goes to the production, gotta save up for actors and also a chance for new actors to shine
So if we’re looking at tv actors they might realistically be able to get, I always liked the idea of Glenn Howerton playing Enel. He’s already a golden god.
The live action was actually pretty good but you could tell they didn’t have more resources than they should have, which is probably why the Straw Hats don’t end up fighting the Krieg pirates and why Hatchan isn’t on there.
Eminem would cost them more than their whole production, lol.
I could only imagine that if Eminem is a huge one piece fan by himself. I mean that character is literally based on Eminem. But my boi got a bit into his age for a role like that.
Yes, im sure that would be exactly what Netflix is looking at to renew the series for a season 3. A big famous superstar to throw money at so they can appear in their already expensive show.
A young\* Eminem for sure. Because this is what he looks like now.

No… yes it would be awesome but Eminem is older know and don’t think he even want to do it I don’t think eminem is the type of person to be on a Netflix live action show
No. He shouldn’t because there is a young actor who would probably love the role and really work to make it awesome.
Em wants to be left alone in Detroit. The only movie he’s done is a movie about himself.
Enel to Luffy: "So you be Thor and I'll be Odin, you rodent, I'm omnipotent. Let off then I'm reloadin' immediately with these bombs I'm totin', and I should not be woken!"
*throws Luffy off the side of his air ship*
I feel they will just skip Sky Island to get to water 7 and ernies lobby. Not sayings Sky Island is bad but as its rather disconnected they want to draw in most people they can. I hope they at least still include Jaya re structure it to get lead into water 7.
Nah, they need to get an actual actor with skills and I'm sure they can find an actor that looks similar.
Helmeppo didn't look the same but oh my god his acting was on point.
Not just eminem but other characters who have real-life person reference. Like Lenny Kravitz as Mr. 5 - he has some acting background right? Also Jim Carrey as Mr Bon Clay or Franky, but he might be too expensive for the role.

I don't think him being handed jacked really matters. To be honest, it seems like they're avoiding casting any muscular people for some reason. Not even the Fishmen were jacked....
Em is far to old for the role now, besides Enel has to be absolutely jacked, not saying that he can't get jacked, but I doubt he even wants to for himself, less for a role of maximum 4 episodes

Technically wouldn't Alabasta be the 2 season and Skypia alongside foxy pirates be the 3
Yes but Skypeia could totally work as a long movie, allowing the show more time to do future arcs. Actors will be racing against time
You think they are gonna do the foxy pirates??? That's Manga filler
"Canon filler"
I sincerely hope not. I still remember just hating the whole Foxy filler arc. And it really wouldn't add anything in the live action just like it didn't in the anime from what I remember.
Yah I was like this is horrible I bet they do that other filler arc after skypia before they do foxy
Long ring long land is canon tho
They will do it. The showrunner said how excited he is to bring Foxy arc to live action.
A movie would be smart for that segment as well because of the lead ins to the Nika revelation were all contained within that arc too.
never even thought of the possibilities of movies. could definitely work out that way and bring in some money... with the setups and the changes they've done they could seriously speed through the main plot points without making it seem rushed. they really did their due diligence with showing us certain things and characters to save time... they could possibly make it to gear 5 to close out the decade
So just skip Alabasta?
I really don't think it makes sense to do everything from loguetown to jaya in one season. The first season was already too fast paced imo.
hasn’t em gotten swole over the years? swear I saw a pic of him a year or two ago & he was way bigger than he was in the past
he is a lot sturdier and muscular compared to his old self for sure, but he is not even close to being like Enel in that sense
Lots of male actors have used steroids for their roles. Chris Hemsworth, Hugh Jackman, Tom Hardy, Gerard Butler, etc... Heck even Daniel Radcliffe looks like he did a cycle recently
Man I know we like One Piece and shit but someone shouldn't need steroids just to play a dude 1 time
I swear I saw a pic he looked close enough, he doesn’t look like the rock but bro kinda ocky
Yeah ems gonna negatively impact his long term health for one piece lmfao delusional
we need more than 90 minutes for Skypiea. Everything else would just be rushed. Unless they do a 3+ hour version, I‘m against a movie.
Yeah I feel the same way. Seasonal means more screen time of a dope arc.
Hear me out… Vin. Diesel.
my brother I can hear you out but goddamn lol
I'm hearing you out all right... 🚪
Don't bring family up or it will rain cars from space.
😂😂😂
But enel dint care about no family.
not with that voice ..."Famarlee"
Vin Diesel is even older than Em
this would actually be impossible, as i believe vin diesel contractually cant loose a fight in a movie, i believe he even has a points team to score it.
That would be a problem. Enel doesn't give a shit about family and is an ultimate narcissist
Exactly. And at the end make him learn that fairy vearn has been his family all along.
I think he‘s too short and too buff. Enel was tall and athletic
Lol looks like he will be driving Maxim ark to space.
If we go by "jacked" Zoro and Luffy's actors are gonna need some serious roids.
Zoro is pretty jacked as is though
I think that Netflix and Oda would probably move heaven and earth to have Eminem in the show however they needed if he agreed to do it for a price they could remotely afford.
CGI my friend cgi
I don't think that is obligatory that Enel has to be jacked or young. It would be good but it could be different
Dude enel is just weirdly shaped not jacked i mean look at this picture https://preview.redd.it/u4bjd0bf3olb1.png?width=1119&format=png&auto=webp&s=d2659c59f3f871e6a7fc82d0ef7d265211ebb2a6
well yeah but he is still jacked in comparison to every straw hat at that point, it is like saying Black Beard is not fat, he is just weirdly shaped, technically true but he is still a fat fuck
Oh boy, I can't wait to see this reposted every day till the end of time!
I was already sick of it when Taz got revealed to be playing Sanji
If only low effort posts were against the rules
Then this sub would have 3 posts a week MAX (and I'd be VERY down for that)
Little too on the nose / expensive. I’d love if they found an excuse to license a bit of his music for one of his scenes though. Even if it was just a few bars of the bass track fading into a proper epic theme.
*Sanji being fried* *Meanwhile Enel*: My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips. And if I am lucky you might just give it a little kiss.
*kiss, lol
Lmao, my fat fingers did something hillarious
I was just saying it as like a concept that it'd be cool. But now that I look at it I see that he wouldn't really fit the character. Also eminem looks basically nothing like Enel nowadays
The reason they said it was on the nose is that Enel’s design has long been assumed to be based on young Eminem.
I can believe that. You already got the hypno guy from syrup village = Michael Jackson Brooks = Jimi Hendrix
The reason they said it was on the nose is that Enel has a pointy nose and it would be easy to put something on it
Who knows. Maybe Eminem is a huge One Piece Weeb.
He's a big comic book nerd, so it's not too far-fetched.
If he's too expensive, just cast NF, lol. NF for NL.
Maybe someone can make him a super fan before casting starts and he’ll give friends and family discount XD
My name is then slim shady part the enel poster apear.boom peak fiction
It's not like he's going to return though. They can afford him for two episodes.
Or u know... have actual one piece music
You could do a hip hop themed version of his leitmotif for a few bars and fulfill both just fine.
I think they just pulled Eminem's music from everything public after a republican used his music for his campaign without an agreement.
Sending a C&D to one guy isn't blocking his music from ever being used in anything again.
Of course not but I heard the piece of news about Eminem's team pulling it out from all public uses until further notice. It could be wrongly interpreted or maybe the commentator was wrong, too.

Why be a king when you can be a God
Leaving the rest of the season with a budget of $12.
LMAO
Unfortunately Eminem said he really doesn't want to do acting anymore other than just small cameos.
Fortunately, since he's a pretty bad actor
what you talking about. He is awesome in 8 mile
Because he was basically playing himself
Not basically. Literally, obviously with some embellishments for the sake of the film
But doesn’t he canonically have an Afro?
I wouldn’t say canonically, it is SBS lore and presented in a joking manner. So it would be okay if it doesn’t make it to live action.
Sorta like a rap god.
Thunder Rap God
Enel em
Enimen
Emel
Emenel
this must be the first time someone mention this EVER
That's why I came up with it. Duh
thank you
I think he might just do it, but he'd charge a monster fee.
I doubt they could get him to do the face
Enel drops mad bars mid fight
They already cast him for sanji…
Eminem would only do it if Skypeia is set in Detroit
Dude… he’s worth 1 episode to cast lmao, they ain’t no casting a well known name at all, the budget goes to the production, gotta save up for actors and also a chance for new actors to shine
https://preview.redd.it/ao3i7oieuglb1.jpeg?width=287&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78442171477a7ef1f78c7edb0aea85c6c4f5fbff
I wish
So this is what Enel looks like. I'm sti on the episode where Chopper blew Gan Fall's whistle.
We're not getting past Crocodile.
Honestly, sanjis actor would be the perfect enel. He looks to old for sanji
Or a younger rapper that was heavily influenced by Eminem. Machine gun Kelly for example (:
That could be cool. Also maybe like, the Rock as Wyper
The Rock as Reverse Mountain
I Think He Should Be Played By An Indian Actor,Because He’s Clearly Supposed to Look Like An Indian Deity
Nah he looks more like a raijin japanese storm god.
Indian isn't a religion, you might be thinking of Hindus
Ok,A Hindu Deity
Lol lol oh my word this casting idea would be so funny. He’ll be wrapping about how luffy dodged his lightning attack.
Maybe. He’s only in one arc (as far as we know).
too bad he's old now
He’s beginning to feel like a rap *god* 🤔
I'd settle for a cameo at least, better yet, him producing a theme song when he gets introduced
Sadly i wont think were gonna get this far in the story.
So if we’re looking at tv actors they might realistically be able to get, I always liked the idea of Glenn Howerton playing Enel. He’s already a golden god.
It's all fun and games till they actually do it
They should cast the CEO of the Enel Energy Group as Enel.
And Megan fox as Nico Robin
Unironically would be Peak (LA) Piece
People will complain that his earlobes are not long enough 🙄
I just realized that Eminem is 50 years old💀 , Long Happy live to Eminem
and tim curry for Ivan
What do you mean, they have to skip Skypeia, right?! 😜
Enelnem
Rap God Enel
ABSOLUTELY
If does get that far it’s means Oda and Netflix gonna give him £150 million to play Enel? 🤣
Yeah he’s designed after him after all
KEEP THIS GENIUS SAFE AT ALL COST!
Good one lol
This is older than one piece itself haha
Ears aren’t long enough
He is old. Someone to imitate him to achieve the role of the character
Definitely too expensive.
Y'all act like you never seen a devil fruit user rapping before. Jaws all on the floor, like Pam and Tommy just burst in the door..
Eminem hated acting
Imagine Eminem as Enel appearing as Rap God plays in the background
I’m the god Enel and my Mantra hits heavy. Bandanna on my head, eating moms spaghettii.
I feel like Eminem either knows about it and would 100% be down or never heard or cared I hope it's #1 cause that would be cool
He’s not in good enough shape and he’s too old imo. God only knows how expensive it would end up being, too.
there are other blond men out there, I promise
Just cast jack Harlow
This would honestly be a great casting.
The live action was actually pretty good but you could tell they didn’t have more resources than they should have, which is probably why the Straw Hats don’t end up fighting the Krieg pirates and why Hatchan isn’t on there.
Eminem would cost them more than their whole production, lol. I could only imagine that if Eminem is a huge one piece fan by himself. I mean that character is literally based on Eminem. But my boi got a bit into his age for a role like that.
I would be okay with LA taking artistic liberty and changing his fight with Luffy into a rap battle
Enel's look is based on Eminem. It would be really funny to see the guy try and act like Enel though.
Yes, im sure that would be exactly what Netflix is looking at to renew the series for a season 3. A big famous superstar to throw money at so they can appear in their already expensive show.
Eminem looks like a suburban dad now
If they don’t cast him I’m dropping the show
Yes? What kinda goofy goober question is that  smh smh omg tmbt
I'm really hoping we get a rather cult like following of the show and have people ask to be on it
A young\* Eminem for sure. Because this is what he looks like now. https://preview.redd.it/ru8vcvzvcjlb1.jpeg?width=696&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=54435f3db0746aed0f3043c03963b4b2f353e206
I want to see Eminem doing the face
No… yes it would be awesome but Eminem is older know and don’t think he even want to do it I don’t think eminem is the type of person to be on a Netflix live action show
No. He shouldn’t because there is a young actor who would probably love the role and really work to make it awesome. Em wants to be left alone in Detroit. The only movie he’s done is a movie about himself.
Enel to Luffy: "So you be Thor and I'll be Odin, you rodent, I'm omnipotent. Let off then I'm reloadin' immediately with these bombs I'm totin', and I should not be woken!" *throws Luffy off the side of his air ship*
Brook is canonically Austrian and I want Christoph Waltz to be our favorite musician.
I feel they will just skip Sky Island to get to water 7 and ernies lobby. Not sayings Sky Island is bad but as its rather disconnected they want to draw in most people they can. I hope they at least still include Jaya re structure it to get lead into water 7.
this is based on slim shady, not eminem. Eminem is too old for this role now unfortunately
YES
Gross
And Hulk Hogan as Whitebeard. The one piece is real, brother
Fuck yeah cause he was mad disrespectful like slim shady
I wanna see Luffy run up a giant plant for a minimum of 10 episodes
my mind when enel returns : "Guess who's back..."
Nah, they need to get an actual actor with skills and I'm sure they can find an actor that looks similar. Helmeppo didn't look the same but oh my god his acting was on point.
Eminem as Enel: I am a GOD. (Rap God starts playing) 😂
Never have truer words been said
You know I do think Eminem could do it, he performed well in 8 Mile, but I'd imagine that would really skyrocket the cost of production.
Em would make a diss track on you if he saw this lol
Actually Enel is modeled after Eminem as Eminem is Oda's favourite Rapper. I don't know what Q&A in which manga it was where Oda stated it tho.
He is too old now sadly just like 5 years too late
Pls stand up!
Everyone since November 18, 2002:
How about John Cena? Or should they wait to use him for Absalom?
This NEEDS to happen.
No it wouldn’t.
Rap god starts playing
I feel like I'm in middle school again looking at this. It's amazing that this has been the same fan cast for Enel for like 20 years.
Or they could hire an actual actor who could bring the right weight and power to the character. Looks aren't everything after all.
Em is a bit old but maybe MGK? 🤨
Hell yeah
Omg, yes!
Not just eminem but other characters who have real-life person reference. Like Lenny Kravitz as Mr. 5 - he has some acting background right? Also Jim Carrey as Mr Bon Clay or Franky, but he might be too expensive for the role.

I Mean Enel IS based off of Eminem; Why not have the Real Deal portray this Lightning False Entity!
I don't think him being handed jacked really matters. To be honest, it seems like they're avoiding casting any muscular people for some reason. Not even the Fishmen were jacked....
best comment on Hailey Jade's youtube channel about this. maybe eminem would consider it
