One Piece’s Luffy and crew prepare for battle in final epic trailer
We're just one day away from a rip-roaring adventure...
We're now just one day away from One Piece fans getting a chance to stream all eight episodes of the Netflix live-action adaptation, and in anticipation of the release the streamer has dropped one final full-length trailer.
The trailer features more of everything we would expect - daring sea battles, nefarious villains and more of that eternal optimism from Monkey D Luffy.
It gives us a better look at Luffy's crew, including Mackenyu's Zoro, Emily Rudd's Nami, Jacob Romero's Usopp and Taz Skylar's Sanji, while also showing off the series's host of antagonists, played by the likes of Jeff Ward and Vincent Regan.
You can watch the full trailer right here now.
The adaptation of the best-selling manga series of all time arrives with a weight of expectation, and Luffy star Iñaki Godoy has promised that the team behind the programme want to "honour" the source material.

Meanwhile, director Emma Sullivan recently told RadioTimes.com that in order to keep the fans happy, the team first made sure to keep One Piece creator Eiichiro Oda happy.
