Taz Skylar has become a breakout star thanks to his role as Sanji in Netflix’s One Piece, but behind the scenes he’s just as entertaining as the swashbuckling chef he plays on screen.
Fans recently got a glimpse of his playful side when he revealed that one of his favourite moments during the filming of One Piece season 2 was an all-out nerf gun war with the cast. No cameras, no scripts—just pure mayhem and laughter, the kind of moment that bonds a crew faster than any rehearsal could.
That same energy carried over to real life when Skylar first met his co-star Mackenyu, who plays Zoro. The meeting happened at Skylar’s own apartment, where Mackenyu was in the middle of an intense pull-up workout. Skylar had gone for a run, and when he returned, Mackenyu was still at it. Fans instantly likened it to the way Zoro and Sanji would meet in the anime—one cooking up charm, the other ignoring it for training.
Beyond the laughs, Skylar is also a real-life adrenaline junkie. He’s an experienced skydiver with around 300 jumps under his belt, which probably explains why he throws himself into action scenes with such ease. Whether he’s free-falling through the sky or bringing a beloved anime character to life, Skylar’s blend of energy, skill, and humour keeps audiences hooked on and off the screen.
