How Doctor Who Helped Manifest Netflix’s One Piece

The upcoming One Piece series wouldn’t have come to fruition if it weren’t for BBC’s Doctor Who, specifically one of the directors who worked on the sci-fi drama show — Emma Sullivan.Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece launched a franchise, consisting of manga, anime, films, video games, and, most recently, a television series, back in 1997 and has since become a cultural phenomenon with a huge fan base all over the world. When Netflix approached Oda regarding the potential live-action adaptation, the streaming platform understood what was at stake right away, which is why the people involved with the project needed to be selected carefully. That included the directors who would be responsible for bringing the first eight episodes of the Straw Hat Pirates’ adventures to the screen. In an interview with Collider, Sullivan, one of the chosen four directors, spoke about how she joined the production.Apparently, Sullivan was considered for the job thanks to two of her most recent projects — Doctor Who and The Watch. She directed two of Jodie Whittaker’s Thirteenth Doctor ventures in 2020, and she worked on three consecutive episodes of Simon Allen’s The Watch in 2021. Both series have a long history and an enormous following — after all, Doctor Who has been on air since 1963, and The Watch is a much-anticipated adaptation of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series, which first debuted in 1983.RELATED: One Piece Live Action Event Reveals Netflix Props and Drone Show
