Nico Robin is a character bigger than herself as she is tied intrinsically to the narrative of Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece. Robin was first introduced as an antagonist with a mysterious backstory, the only one in the entire world who has the ability to read the Poneglyphs. She is directly connected to one of the darkest story arcs, involving the scholarly clan of Ohara, which was eradicated entirely by the buster call of the Marine government.
This is all without taking into account her Flower-Flower devil fruit and fighting abilities. Nico Robin is a crucial member of the Straw Hat Pirates and fans have been curious to find out who will play her character in Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda’s manga. Now, in an accidental reveal, the OTT giant confirmed it is Russian actress Leva Abova, known for her works in Pitch Perfect: Bumper In Berlin and Anna, who will take on the role.
Btw, the new cast information was posted on Netflix's official website by mistake and then deleted after a few minutes lmao https://t.co/FEmPjA6AGg pic.twitter.

Netflix accidentally shared the update on social media before deleting it.
But by the time they reversed the mistake, the news was already creating quite a buzz online. strawhat’s girls for onepiece live action pic.twitter.
