The weekend was filled with news about the One Piece franchise. In addition to a couple of new names added to the One Piece Netflix cast, we also got word of two new One Piece movies coming in the next three years. What’s more, the upcoming One Piece Film God Valley movie will do something the series has never done before: adapt canon material from the manga.

The God Valley Incident in One Piece was one of the most important events in the manga, even though it took place nearly 40 years before Luffy set sail to find his own crew. It was first mentioned during the Wano Arc, but the true nature of it – and how it tied so many of the characters together – wasn’t fully explained until the Elbaph Arc. We’re being intentionally vague to avoid spoilers for anyone catching up, but the God Valley Incident details the mixture of tragedy and heroism that One Piece has been known for.

At the end of One Piece Day 2026, Toei Animation confirmed that a new One Piece movie is coming in 2027; the first one since 2022’s One Piece Film: Red, in fact. One Piece Film God Valley will release in 2027 to mark the 30th anniversary of the manga’s release. This is the first time a One Piece movie has directly adapted events from the manga; the chapters detailing the God Valley Incident haven’t been shown in the anime thanks to its new seasonal release schedule, so this will be the first time they have been animated anywhere.

A second One Piece movie, titled One Piece Film BAAD, is also in production to be released in 2029 to mark the 30th anniversary of the anime’s debut. No details about this movie, including if it will also depict events from the One Piece manga, were announced.
